| Bronkie The Bronchiasaurus worth buying as an investment? |

I'd agree with Turf and everyone else that the buy and hold strategy won't work for video games in general, these aren't fine wines after all and retro-gaming has a considerable 'fad' taint at the minute. That's not to say that retrogaming is going to go away, or that those who collect or play for the love of it are going to disappear, but for obscure, niche titles like this, there's going to be a very limited number of people interested in owning a copy, the value's probably not going to keep spiking. |

@entity I wasn't saying this game was a "really sweet title" I was say unless its a really sweet title. In reference to a different game... |

This is how I look at it. NEVER buy anything off ebay as an investment. everyone on their is trying to get the most money they can for everything they sell, so just the for the fact that the guy is dropping his price for you tips you off that it is not selling at current inflated prices. plus just knowing that he can drop the price for you tells me its a BIN and that it is not worth that much to anyone. If you find it on auction I can almost guarantee it will go for 20-40% less than what the guy is trying to sell it to you for. |

I passed on the game. It is such an obscure game as it is. If I buy a game it will just be for my enjoyment. I do want to rebuild my nes and snes collection. |
