>check pricecharting and current price
>everything done a x2 in term of price including a stupid ps2 and ds
>x3/x4 for some stuff like the larp 3ds
>x8-x10 for pokemon emerald ???


I feel like "serious" collecting (hoarding) before PS3 is pointless unless you are just buying 4-5 title per system and call it a day

Really how come there are 300 monthly burgers that drop 250$ on pokemon emerald cards? sounds nuts. Did people just become retarded or rich? I just calculcated and in europe we lost like 30% of our buying power

Its not just video games. Even artbooks like Alice one went from 30$ to 250$

Kids that grew up with pokemon now wants to own the games they had or wanted back then. Also inflation

Its x9 the original 2007-2019 price. You can see the line ....

I didn't knew burgers know earn 25000$/month!

Just emulate you fucking nerd

They certainly earn more than you. There's a reason you don't matter and the world obsesses over America.

And I don’t give a shit about the arbitrary restriction that the moderators of this board have set. I will respect it because I follow the rules of the game, but in no way will I accept that a 192p handheld released in 2004 is not retro, while Crysis is.

No amount of money can change how shitty of a person you are. Thats why no one likes you in case you were still wondering.

You fuckers promised that the bubble was going to pop

Personally not interested in pieces of plastic, I usually spend my money traveling. I can already emulate so what's the point?
>>
>>12550714
Yeah, come back in 60 years.

Also it depends what games you're seeking. Pokémon as a franchise has a second wind compared to GBA and DS days so everything Pokémon will be more expensive. Why don't you seek other games that people don't talk about constantly?
>>
>>12550714
no one said that except other retards like you that wanted it to be true.
consumer goods with limited runs have followed the same price trends for literal decades. it's no one else's fault other than yours.

you want to get ahead of the curve? start amassing your 7th gen collection NOW.

>>12550714
Don't worry man, the minimum wage will go up and you will be able to finally afford these things.
>>
>>12547425
Is that what people are asking or what they're paying? You can shit in a box and ask 10,000 dollars for it, and scraper sites will say "SHIT IN A BOX WORTH $10,000!!" but that doesn't mean anyone's gonna give you the money
