The price would still be the same for Alpha/Beta/Unlimited because it's the principle of the thing; no one's buying it to play, it's because it's Alpha/Beta. But the card, if one were to play it, oh my god. I played a game of EDH with some friends a year or two back, and we made proxy cards by using a common card and slipping a printed Black Lotus inside of the sleeve. I ran a Blue/Red recycle/goblin rush deck, and won after like, 20 turns. |

But that's crazy he said he wouldn't collect NES games anymore due to price. No doubt prices have been rising on them. But the stuff he has way outclasses NES games. He spends a small fortune every week, I'm sure. --- End quote --- Just today Gamester81 posted on this |

Sin2Beta - thanks for posting the clip. The way he says "Taito" was a little hard to endure, but it was an interesting take on the "NES Bubble". BTW - like your youtube channel. I had never checked it out, but I love SG1000 games! |

I saw this today. Personally, I'm not the kind of collector that goes for the games he's talking about. Most people aren't going out looking for Stadium Events or Flintstones. I can understand Gamester81 not wanting to collect for NES, those type of games are probably exactly the ones he still needs with his crazy impressive collection. Me on the other hand, am still looking for affordable common games like Gradius and Double Dragon II. But to be honest, most systems have games like this. Panzer Dragoon Saga, Earthbound, Elemental Gearbolt, etc. |
