well, akihabara held a few surprises for me today. i found two copies
of Darius Alpha. it:s not the first time i have seen the game for
sale, however, the price is astronomical thesedays...
148,000 yen!= about $1,380 US dollars
and this is a used game.
by comparison:
Sapphire-------------$250
Magical Chase-------$105
Dead of the Brain---$90
Macross 2036-------$40
Dracula X-----------$85
Duo RX--------------$125
PC Engine LT-------$900
also, i need help identifying some games. i found this game which
was a super cd and had a some strange looking monkey on it. the
graphics didn:t look all that great but the game was going for about
$100. what is it?
as an aside, the only other time i:ve seen a game go for over
$1,000 was for the NeoGeo. there is a shooter called Blazing Star
going for $1,200 and some NeoGeo comic quiz game going for
$2,200...unbelievable. anyone know about these games? thanks, george
