aw yeah, i just became the 101st member of our site to get a copy of earthbound. i payed $160 on ebay for a cart only copy (not the best deal maybe but not the worst either)

i also recently ordered a reproduction cart of earthbound for the nes from www.nesreproductions.com so thats gonna be awesome once it comes in the mail.

now i just have to wait for nintendoage to finish the mother 3 gba english repro carts and i will have the earthbound trilogy in english all working on their intended systems.
If any one is looking to get an english copy of mother 3 that plays on your game boy advance check out this link http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?StartRow=401&catid=6&threadid=67548 )

I understand that Earthbound is a good game.  It's not rare though.  There are tons of them on Ebay.  How did it get to be so damn high? 

You seriously paid $160 for it?

When I started collecting, my brother and I split all of our games up.  He got the SNES games (Read: Earthbound, Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy 2&3, Breath of Fire, etc.) and I got the NES and N64 games.  I don't know who got the better end of the deal.

the condition of the game is what will kill your wallet and guess what i have seen the board of the game go for 20 dollars and someone got it 40  dollars  this game has a insane fan base

hey im not saying i got the best deal, but if you check out www.buyearthbound.com that is pretty much the average it goes for these days.
could you get lucky and find it cheaper at a garage sale or something? sure maybe.
but i challange anyone to find a copy today online for cheaper than 120. wont happen
makes for a good question though, whats the most you payed for a single game? this one is mine.

i just checked out you collection (pretty impressive if i may say)
475 nes games and 141 n64 games, your brother would have to have one hell of a snes collection to compare to all that! how many snes games did he get out of the split?
