Does it really matter if it's a CD or a cartridge?

Yeah I think that is a bit steep for a TG16 game, the most I've ever paid for a AES game was $250, but for Neo-Geo I expect those prices. Anyway http://videogames.pricecharting.com/game/turbografx-16/cotton-fantastic-night-dreams-%5Bsuper-cd%5D states over the past couple years averaging around $515 for an open copy. A CD based game can't be worth that much if you ask me. That's a good chunk of change to buy another console or pay off some debt.

[edit]
Sorry... not average, but the high.


Neo Geo cart games are worth <$3.

CD games double as audio CDs and have much better sound. They should be worth more than clunky old carts.

Well, this coming from a AES and MVS owner I really love the Neo-Geo. The prices on the games started out high so paying a high price for them now does not bother me that much. But, for CD games that cost $50-$60 when they were released costing $500 now is a bit crazy in my mind.

That being said today I bought the most expensive CD game than I ever have.


Obviously not Fighting Street.

Can I buy your Cotton for the price you paid so I can have one for each ball as to cover up when I go streaking this Halloween?

Wow.  Subtract $125 from that price and that's about what I paid for my "no one wants TG-16 games" in 93.

For Fighting Street I was willing to pay that much. It was the first TGCD game I bought back in the day... even though I didn't own a TGCD system. So now that I finally got it I decided to pick this game up again.

Hello all!

I was getting ready to sell my TG-16 collection (can't stand the thought, but I need to) and I was looking up some prices for some of the games I have. I've been extremely inactive in the world of TG-16 so I wanted to see what the general thought is. I have a US version (complete/excellent condition) of Cotton and was taken back by some of the prices I've seen it go for. Is it really worth $300 - $500??? That seems insane to me.
Is there a good place to gauge prices for the rest of my games?

Thanks for any info on this

Can I ask why you are selling?  I sold my stuff off about a year and a half back to pay for my wedding, and am trying to get back in, so I am just curious.

Other than that, just do the auction thing recommended by vestcoat, or even try to sell it on here to another wanting member of the community for a fair price.

Collectards were already paying as much as $200 for Turbo Cotton when I sold my sealed copy for $70.

An older member here sold his for 250.00 couple years ago.  It seems when its a new member we chastise him, if its an older and more established member we turn our backs to it and ignore it.

You mean vestcoat's?  His started at a buck and I've no reason to believe he shill bid to get it to its ending value, so why would I bitch about that?  It'd be a different story had he relisted it for months as an overpriced BIN or set the asking price here on the forum at $250.

Genuine COTTON runs close to 1k. There are many fake copies that sell up to $300. There is a thread here somewhere that distinguishes fake from real copies.

That's a lot of stupid, even for you.
