You can still buy sealed NA copies on eBay for $20-30 over retail.  It's not like they're selling for $200+ or something.

 

 

Yes games like these will continue to rise a bit but they'll cap out much lower than older/OOP games have in the past.  You have to remember that these games are all available digitally and games like OoT are available on several different consoles.  You guys freaking out on whether or not to open these games for the codes need to relax...  Just open them and enjoy them, they're not going to magically sell for thousands of dollars a piece someday.  They're games, not bars of gold.

You're right. And to be honest, Ocarina of Time is my all-time favorite game, so I should just keep it anyway, even if there are many other ways to play it. I was just really mad at myself at the moment for not checking first since I'm usually good about doing that.

 

I keep forgetting that I have a real job now, so $50 or so shouldn't matter that much, heh. But it still gets to me sometimes! :P

I don't have anything worth trading. Traded GTAV for $34 a few weeks ago at Best Buy, so I missed out on that. Everything else I have is either digital (PC), not in their system, or I haven't played yet (3DS). Oh well. I guess I could try to flip a few, but the $20 or so I would make isn't even worth the time and effort, IMO--especially with unreliability of Target's system. Kinda bummed that this "great deal" is completely fruitless for me, but that's just how it goes.

Gah! I know I don't need it with all the 3DS games I've been buying lately, but... dat price.

 

From what I've heard it's sort of a generic (but good) tennis game with Mario character skins. The characters all control pretty much the same aside from minor speed differences, from what I've read of reviews. Kind of disappointing. BUT! I still kind of want it because the core gameplay is apparently good and tennis games are fun.

 

So there's my cheapass mind working for ya...

(Thanks OP)
