IC: NES Mega Man 2-6 w/ Manuals

[VenomMacbeth]

I inherited these from my grandmother who passed away a couple years ago, but I've never been much of a Mega Man fan & I am in dire need of cash right now.

I've been hesitant to part with them for a long time, but I don't see them doing me any good if I'll never play them.

I've considered picking one or two of the best of the lot, but I have no idea how to tell which sequel is better than the other...

But again, life happens & this time it happened all over my face, so unfortunately I'll have to let these go.

I have no idea what a good price for them is, but the local video game store offered me $80 for just the carts, but also stated that the manual for MM5 was worth $40 alone...

I'm not looking to make bank, just enough to soften the financial blow from this particularly stressful holiday, and the emotional blow of parting with articles I received from a deceased loved one.

I'm interested and have PayPal money ready for you.

I'm interested in Megaman 2 and 3 as those were the ones I grew up with..

Dude, don't do it.  I am talking instant regret here.... Don't.

$80 for Mega Man 2-6?! Please don't take that, they are really trying to rip you off.

I agree, but if you absolutely must get rid of them, I'd be interested in Mega Man 4. It was my favorite from my childhood, (because Skull Man, kids like skulls, what?) I got rid of my nes cart for it when I bought the Anniversary Collection for PS2 a long time ago. It would be nice to pop it in the ol' NES here and there because reasons.

Hopefully these go to good homes.  If you end up only selling in pieces or what not I would be really interested in any/all of the manuals.

I appreciate the comments, guys.  I have many other games (Battle of Olympus, Mario 3, Metroid) that are games I inherited at the same time that I actually love to play...but for some reason Mega Man just never clicked with me.

I've been hanging onto them with the sincere hope that my opinion would change one day, but I really screwed the pooch with spending on Christmas this year & I don't have many other options for recuperating from it.

I think Mega Man 2, 3, and 4 are considered the best, and 5 and 6 are sought after for being rarer, end of NES games.

I have 2, 3, 4, and as a NES and Mega Man fan it would be cool to have 5 and 6, but I seriously doubt I would be the high offer for the pair, something like $100.

I can't even put a number on the hours I spent playing all of these games.

So much fun.

Are these still available?  I'm hoping to get them but maybe someone out bid me?

1 - If your Grandma owned these and played them - that's an awesome Grandma!

2 - To be honest, if you're hard up for cash, I would eBay 'em to get max value. Taking care of yourself financially if it's a bad situation should trump "giving them a good home" in this case. Just my 2 cents.

VM accepted my offer for MM 5 and 6, though I tried to dissuade him.

[glazball]

Agreed, your grandma was an awesome lady!  It's crazy to see what these are going for now.  In fact I saw MM5 at a game store this weekend and they were asking $90.  Even the first MM is going through the roof.  Last time I checked it was selling for around $80 on eBay, which is insane.

And for the record - 2 was the best

I agree, awesome Grandma.  Make sure you never lose those memories.

When mine passed away one of the few things I took from her house was the metal ice cream scoop from the 30s which she had used forever.  I still have fond memories of her making me a bowl of ice cream and using that scoop, and I value it more than most things in my house (and still use it!).
