Re: When did Arcade Cards become rare?

I have two.  I bought my first Arcade Card Duo back in 1994 with Garou 
Densetsu 2 when it was released.  Last year, I picked up another one new for 
a considerably lower price than I paid back in '94...and I had no problems 
getting one.  Don't know if they made a "ton" of them, though.  Given that 
the upgrade was never fully utilized and never really caught on...in addition 
to the delay that ensued in 1993 because of the factory fire...maybe there 
aren't.  Then again, you sure do see A LOT of them new and unopened...at 
least the Duos.
