OMG! Pocket Reversi! I MUST HAVE IT BECAUSE IT's RARE!

I can understand paying out the ass for an Aston Martin or Lamborghini, because they are awesome cars in their own right.

I can understand paying $1600 for Metal Slug 1 on homecart, because it's an awesome and completely playable game in its own right.

I can't understand people that pay out the ass for a game like Pocket Reversi UK. Some people are just plain silly though. As far as expensive NGPC games go, Last Blade UK, Faselei!, and Evolution are the only high price carts worth their tag, mainly because the Japanese counterparts don't display in English. But Pocket Reversi, no way.

We'll be seeing this same Pocket Reversi on auction or sale in a few weeks or months from now.

I have ONE word to describe anybody that is willing to pay that much for that idiotic game: crazy.

IT'S NOT EVEN THAT %^#&%^$ RARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I, myself, have now seen ELEVEN MINT COPIES OF THAT GAME FOR SALE IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS.... I have seen 2 copies of Shanghi Mini UK... Why doesn't Shanghi Mini get that much? Because people have this odd preconceived notion that pocket reversi is the rarest thing ever.... Guess what: IT ISN"T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More pocket reversi's are surfacing now due to the Edge Aticle, Thats why more have been up recently, But this will die down soon and you won't be able to find them so easy.

This is the Edge Retro effect in full swing... I've had several people corner me (both on-line and IRL) lately asking about the NGPC because of that article. There are going to be a lot of people out there hoarding NGPC games soon because of their perceived rarity.

And, no, I wouldn't give you more than £20 for a copy of PR wink I don't want it now that it's L@@k R@r3 any more than I did when I could pick it up in the bargain bins...

Cheers
Chris
