"I was so excited to see that many N64 games that I forgot to look at the prices"

Even I know the price of the popular ones because I once wanted to buy Kirby 64 once and immediately got pissed off.

350 AUD, fuck right off.

Thank god flash carts and roms exist

Jesus. I think that's cheaper in North America. The top rare/expensive games they showed was rental store exclusives and some of the good but underappreciated games like the Goemon games, Snowboard Kids 2, Harvest Moon, Ogre Battle, etc. No Kirby 64 as far as I saw.

I know eBay prices are always bad, but this should give you an idea of the state of retro gaming when something becomes a "hidden gem"

Fuuuck scalpers. I mean, I get that the PAL version is going to be rarer than the US version, but that's still way overpriced.

Dude bought 10 games twice by accident in the first couple days or something. Come on, dude.
