i cant believe how much a factory sealed copy of earthbound is going for

Fortunately, there are other ways to play Earthbound, and I agree with you about how that particular copy will never be able to break out of its shell to unleash its fun.

I think I played an emulator version of Earthbound when I was younger... thank goodness for the internet!

Now if only Nintendo would stop being wusses and actually released Earthbound on Virtual Console, they'd do a killing with that!

I know people talk about some problems with the game's music, but I doubt it would cause any actual problems. I mean, having music that sounded like other people's music hasn't stopped Chrono Trigger, FF7, Donkey Kong Country 3, Mega Man X3, Mega Man 1 and all the genesis Sonic games (amongst others) from being re-released.

That's Nintendo for ya.  Say, do you remember the ads for that game?  It's almost like Nintendo was wanting it to fail.

I have a very, very, very faint recollection of these ads (thankfully): http://earthboundcentral.com/2009/01/earthbounds-marketing-campaign/

You mention that and its cause of the ads and stuff for the game that kept me from buying it when it was released. :|
