If you're a physical collector, this is your cheapest chance to get it. If you're a scalper, this is your chance to make the most money off it. If you're neither, then this doesn't affect you. Just get the digital version. Sunshine's current value on the resale market comes entirely from the fact that Nintendo has never re-released it on any console or eshop until now, and there isn't even a ton of copies (relatively) because the GC never sold that well. Looking at this from a Canadian perspective the game is essentially $90-$92 after tax across almost the entire country. Best Buy still has thousands of copies left to preorder just from their initial stock allocation and EB Games and Amazon still have it available as well. The game also won't gain any theoretical value until after it is "discontinued" and that is well past any return date for retailers, so you're just risking getting yourself stuck with the stock. There just simply isn't a huge value proposition here. --- https://imgur.com/bbRWLI8 https://imgur.com/A0BErSV https://imgur.com/S1m3po4 https://imgur.com/7fCcfko <cite>Bio1590 posted [p:944601403] in Scalpers a...
