Is anyone else having a HUGE problem locating this game at a reasonable cost like under 80.00 USD???

-backstory-

so, I had a copy, it was my most cherished game next to metal gear(NES) and i played it ALOT like everyday after school alot because i needed to wind down and I find the game fun and relaxing..enter horrible little brother..>< he wanted to play with my saturn and when i told him no he grabbed it and pulled all the cords along with it sucessfully breaking my tv. then, he started to run for the stairs..i stopped him from doing so in fear of his saftey and then went to get my saturn out of his filthy hands...slow motion as he chucked my console down a 15 step flight of stairs...well, not only was the system destroyed but on it's journey down, the game popped out and was cracked down one side from being hit..and my saturn was demolished..now, i easily replaced the saturn for a mere 30 USD but the game is another story...T__T

ps...if this is in the wrong place im sorry

Yikes, $80?! That's madness... I did a search on Ebay, they got the game for much cheaper than that.

i found it on ebay for cheaper but unfortunatley you just cannot win..i found a copy for 5$ i'm actually willling to pay up to 20$ so i bid 20$ ok, Immediatley after i bid there was an auto bid for 25.00$ and it's really like that on ALL of them I tried T__T

Probably the worst time to break.
With the new game coming around the old one is most likely to go up in price if others really know about it.
Don't have any local used game stores?
(I found a copy for $5 there, I literally ripped the guy off. XD)
Anywho I have been having a much more harder time getting a Saturn.
(Not able to get off eBay.)

none of the local shops have it and a few of them haven't even heard of it T___T

The best way to do this, and mind you will have to be quick, it to bid the best amount last few seconds.
(Probably should have not bid so much so early.)

ehehee i never thought of that '

oh, ps im never this whiny and I was just asking around to see if it's really this hard to obtain...

[MiDNIGHT]

I don't consider that whiny.
I've alway heard it is harder to obtain the game than it is the system.
It just happens to be backwards for me. (Harder to get the system rather than the game.)

oh no, i just meant in general like if someone sees this and they're all like .."omg what a whiner" lol im not really used to boards with nice people in them ^__^

[animejosse]

Naah, you're not whiny ^^ Whiny would've been "OMG I can't find it anywhere find it for meeee~!"

Like Ekairi said, last-second-bidding should be your best bet.

If eBay doesn't work out too well for you, try Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00...6541&sr=8-1

Ignore the first two listings. There are some below those.. The prices have definitely gone up since I bought my copy, but there are some starting at $25 or so. Suppose that's reasonable.

Do you have local flea markets or thrift stores? They're usually treasure troves for old games -- thrift stores, not so much, depending on your neighborhood. Those are usually better for cartridge games. Worth a look, and it's a good way to kill some time on a Saturday morning.
