Wow, I think it was just a couple months ago the games were still in the 30 dollar range.

Might be worth it to start getting physical versions of the fatal frame games as well while they are still somewhat affordable.

Are the Xbox Director's Cuts of the Fatal Frame games worth anything? Still have both of those.

I do have it, but I got it used back at Gamestop in the late 2000s and it's open of course. Someone also wrote on the actual disc.

Theres been a huge retro gaming boom with the pandemic & gen 6 consoles have been hit the hardest in general, but survival horror as a genre has also had quite an uptick yeah - Silent Hill 1, Clock Tower 1 + 2 & Koudelka are all PS1 games that have basically doubled in price since March.

COVID + generational nostalgia, GameCube & GBA have been hit hard too; Xbox & Dreamcast still haven't really gotten an uptick yet.

Yeah, GameCube games have been going up the past few years in general. I'm glad I grabbed a few of the rarer ones a few years back. I thought $300 was really steep for Pokmon Box, but man people want double that now.

Honestly with how much games like Emerald/Platinum/BW2/HGSS that sold literally millions of copies go for I'm surprised Pokemon Box isn't doing Little Samson numbers rn.

I just realized recently that Haunting Ground is one of the more valuable games in my collection. I've also got the guide in pretty good condition.

I remember seeing Kuon at a mom and pop store, having absolutely no idea what it was, saw it was only $5, and ended up impulse buying it.

God damn that was a lucky move... my luckiest retro game purchases were probably Kid Dracula (loose cart) & Koudelka (CIB) - both during the summer of 2013 for $35 each.

EDIT: Also Bucky O'Hare (NES) for $30. Again summer 2013... damn I was on a roll that year.

I wonder who is buying these games people who actually want to play them or people who just want to own them to put on a shelf. I can't imagine paying 100+ dollars for some of these games they are just not worth it.

For some reason PS2 games, and most 90s-00s "Retro" games, are seeing prices skyrocket this year. I've sold like 15 games for about $300-350 total. This time last year I'd be lucky to get $200.
