Don't want to open a new thread for this but can somebody please tell me what the hell is wrong with Miitopia for the 3DS, game was about 40 bucks a couple days ago at eBay and now is around the 110 bucks, my daughter really want it since she already finished the demo, in fact was about to purchase the title this next Friday but am not gonna pay that ammount of money for it, it's even less expensive at Mercado Libre  :o
My best guess is that it either had a low physical print run or companies have run out of new stock for the moment. It can still be bought physically on Gamestop.com for $40 in the states, and $52 on Amazon Mexico.

Guess that my best choice will be Game Stop, saw one at ML but I have my doubts about the cover, this is the first time that I ever saw the Parental guidance recommended, dunno if it's fake  :-\

whoa wth. i'll keep an eye out for it myself. I wanted to pick this one but figured I'd wait 'till it got cheap....  :-[

No such luck on Gamestop, unfortunately. Only $40 for the digital version, and nowhere within 100 miles of me has a copy :'(

That's so insane. I think they might have been recalled it for some reason? I was just at two GameStop locations late last week, browsing the 3DS games and I saw it. Now it's not at any store near me, now no major earlier site has it. I know I've seen it at Walmart as well, bet they're all gone. I'm thinking there's be a low key recall on the game. Possibly another one vulnerable to hacking or something they didn't want in there. Because there's no way "teh rarez" can go that viral in just a week on a modern and recent release.

Okay, now I am getting suspicious. I've discovered yet another game in my collection that I've re-bought. RoboWarrior for the NES was a game that my VG collect said that I had, and I thought I had, last year when I bought it. Turns out, I have photographic evidence that I did in fact buy it once before, for $3 in 2012. Yet I can only account for my more recent copy.

I think someone might have stolen a few of my games, probably several years back. I was in a jam band of sorts, and I hosted practice at my place. But I always felt like everyone who came over was trust worthy, maybe not? This is the second game, and I bet I'll find a few more. Odd choices, because so far, none of them were, or are valuable games.

As a long time collector, I have come to the conclusion that cartridges are the best physical form of media for collectors.

Between disc-rot, VHS mold and hardware failure, floppy disk erasure, and just plain wearing out of cassette tapes; none of the rest have a lasting quality to them 2-3 decades later. With my game cartridges I have nothing to worry about 25 years later like I do with these other formats. And thanks to after-market accessories and consoles, I don't have to worry much about hardware failure even, like I do with my aging VCRs and cassette players. Short of physically breaking, or submersion, those carts will last me my lifetime.

For this reason alone, I want to see cartridges somehow make a comeback. The collector in my cries every time I find something that hasn't aged well in my collection.

This is just nuts to me.  That game went from being undesirable and easily available to impossible to find super fast.

I bought a back order copy on Amazon, so in for a cancellation I guess.

A Gamestop a few towns over (3 hour drive 1 way) has a copy... I could see if they'll ship the copy to my store.

Double post because why not.

I got my Note8 in the mail yesterday, but I don't get my case until later this week.  Probably won't bother setting the phone up until I get the case because I don't want to carry it around without a case.

I'm gonna check a local Walmart that doesn't get hit as hard, they usually have way more stock than the one at the shopping center (they actually had an NES classic once). I know they had Miitopia last week. Guess I'll pick it up if they've still got it.

That looks the Australian release. That's the rating system they use

That's new for me anyway I asked the seller for a picture of the cartridge and he deleted the publication, lol

whoa wth. i'll keep an eye out for it myself. I wanted to pick this one but figured I'd wait 'till it got cheap....  :-[

Had the same idea that eventualy will get cheaper but I was wrong, the problem here is that my daughter is asking every single day when am going to purchase the game, am also asking a couple of people of sellers from Mercado Libre and one of them is part of Nintendo Mexico and he has it available, the price for it is $58.33 guess that I will go for this one.

How much did you paid for it ?, I asked for some photos from the seller at Mercado Libre cause really want to be sure that it came with the spanish language, the demo that my daughter downloaded came with that language by default but a friend told me that it came that way because the 2DS has it this way, want to believe it's true.
