    Default Sealed Taromaru (Saturn) on eBay...

    Definitely not mine. This is probably going to go for about 3 months of my rent ...

    I don't know anything about this game, but the cover art on it is spectacular. Anyhow, good luck in obtaining it.

    you really have to wonder what you will do with such thing IF one can afford and win the auction...
    soon as you open the value will drop like the rock...
    the only viable option would be getting 2nd one in mint but used condition for play...

    I'd say get the minty used copy instead and play it...
    it's not too bad play wise...

    What am I missing here? I see some Chinese or Japanese characters on a plaid background

    Zoiks, that game runs $275-300 in Japan, unsealed.... I shudder to think what the final price on it will be.

    Well, I sure ain't biddin' on it!

    Simple, yet elegant.

    I'm not sure I can really explain just why this appeals to me. Perhaps "spectacular" was a bit of an overstatement, but for whatever reason I just simply dig it.

    I was quoting store prices -- i've seen it in stores 2x in Japan, once it was ~27000, the other ~28000. Those retro stores I'm sure more expensive than an auction site, though.
