    I'm so glad I bought metroid prime trilogy for $50 when it was new

    I bought it new at a Gamestop for about $30. I don't know what they were thinking, but a deal's a deal.

    nice

    Not even sure why Spyro is in that list, used on xbox 360 goes for about £15 in the UK

    Really? Tenkaichi 3? Well, the Wii version does have a decent online multiplayer, and tenkaichi is one of the best with its insane amount of characters, but still. Metroid Prime Troligy, DAMN. I heard it was $75 but i thought that was a new copy, it was old and the new one is $201!? Aiyaah! I want both those games and yet now i dont know how im gonna buy them, let alone find them anywhere besides amazon and get the money for it considering im saving up for a Wii U!

    I am so happy I had the foresight to buy xenoblade, keep it in mint condition, and keep the art book perfect condition. Yay for me

    Yesss, I own two of these :D

    NBA Elite 11 looks pretty much the same as NBA Live 09. Two years afterwards. At least the 2K series tries to make changes.

    I don't think these games are too rare, but I cherish my copies of Gitaroo-Man (PS2) and Tetris DS. Tetris DS regularly goes up and down in price on Amazon.com.

    DANGIT! I shoulda bought xenoblade chronicles at launch.

    I own a sealed copy of Metroid trilogy and recently bought a used complete copy of Xenoblade from a play n trade. Maybe one day I'll fetch some decent money for those.

    Holy crap. *holds his copy of Metroid Prime Trilogy close* You know, it's funny how few of the games on the list are actually worth owning.

    Darn, I traded in my copy of Metroid Prime Trilogy ages ago... I got nowhere near $200 for it.

    I would have bought the horse game if B. Buttercup was a playable character. (Though he'd probably be offended by his one-dimensionality as a protagonist)

    I have no idea why the Metroid Prime Trilogy was underprinted. Three triple-A, bestselling, first-party, "Player's Choice," high-quality games, two of them seeing widescreen for the first time, in one common sensical compilation released for a console known for its lack of good games (don't argue it). What's wrong with Nintendo? Seriously, for a company that's overly obsessed about its past, they outright ignore the most justifiable, most warrantable rerelease of three pasts games.

  • profile0000 - January 15, 2013 1:37 p.m.

    Thank god. I was worried B. Buttercup was turned into glue.
