Sonic Spike sells for $20 MIB on eBay.

The seller is also selling a TV Sports Hockey for $50. The funny thing is that one of his cheapest games is actually Bonk's Adventure.

Apparently, the seller lives in a Bizzaro World where sports games command a premium price.

Bonk's time has come and gone, but Hockey still remains a popular sport so that has to increase the value.

^ Exactly!

Quite reasonable, actually.

I didn't knew Duos had a power switch at the back of the console... in fact mine doesn't. Must be a special r4r3 edition, huh.

Or a Keith Courage mod switch edition.

All I want is to find a nice copy of Ys I&II.  I'd love one with the box if possible, honestly.  I have the Japanese version, and play it pretty regularly, but I want the US version because I love the English voice cast.  I just can't justify paying $70-100 on E-Bay for a game I already own the Japanese disc and PSN re-releases of, as well as pretty much every remake to date.

I'm also watching this right now:

...and have no idea if it's anywhere around a reasonable price or not.  I have a Japanese Duo-R, so this is my one option for having English versions of Bonk 1+2 that I can actually play on it without a mod / converter / etc...

That's a quite a gouge considering Gamedude sells it for half that.

I hear you about Ys. I already own it on the SMS, PSP, PC and PSN but have always wanted to play the Turbo version because of the acclaim. Tough to justify such a steep purchase (add 30% to Canada) for a game that has been re-released on dozens of platforms but that's the Turbo for you. Might be sacrilege but I am kind of partial to the chip tune music in the SMS version versus all the arrangements in the other versions of the game I've played...

Whoa.  Gamedude, you say?  I'd definitely take the plunge for that price.

Oh, nice!  I'm envious of whoever got that boxed copy for $37.  Thanks man!

why do you need the box?

[NightWolve]

Kind of a bummer the TurboDuo I bought and the pack-in version of Ys Book I&II didn't include its original box, just the CD case and manual - still a great deal though... As it has a very special value to me, I would've liked to have had it, but ah well. :/
