Okay, I am on the hunt for an official, non-stamped, mint AES Metal Slug 1, preferably the US version.

The Neo Store has one currently for $2200, but it's the JPN version.

I know some of you out there own it, just wondering who possess one and what's your price! (Remember, I really want the US one, all of my other slugs, 2, X, & 3 are US too!)

Please PM or email me with ANY info you may have.

This game is gonna break me!

Yep. There hasn't been a japanese copy on ebay in a while. That could very well be the value after that US auction

And guess to whom he sold it. Wink wink... I won't name names, but let's just say it's going to be sold for 1000 profit. <img src="graemlins/blowtop.gif" border="0" alt="[Blow Top]" />

2200 USD for Metal Slug 1 JPN?

that's crazy...

...I'm tired of this sick attitude...

c'mon Shawn...

and the game is not all mint...

...this is not passion, it's pure speculation...

I agree with this. Its all money now. 1000 is not justified. Even by the most "loyal" supporter. (chimp)

And when it comes to Shawns business and jackings, none of our opinions matter, cause it never changes a thing.

I have a US Metal Slug AES as you all have seen in my collection. And I have a copy to the right of it. If you want it and you offer me the right price .......I would have to sell it. You can mail me offers on it.

It is all around near mint. I would say 8 out of 10 on all aspects. No visible flaws. But I will tell you now....to part with it is not gonna be cheap, so anything under 2k ...forget it. And no back lash. Any of you know that if you had it and would sell it, you would fetch top dollar too.

Fire away!

You'd be an idiot not to.

Even if someone were to say: Here, I'll be a "good" person and sell it for $1000 or $700 that's still beyond sanity. Anyone who pays more than 50+ more than retail is way too wacky for my tastes.

I have them, but it is not for sale. You should just wait for a better deal . $2200 for a JPN is fine, but funny.

Exactly Bobak! At least someone understands the investment I made. I was told I was an idiot by my friend for paying what i did for it. Now I am lauging at them. Hey, I won't pay it anymore...I have other interests that are more enjoyable. But if its wanted ......money is the only way your gonna pry it from my hands. :)

Like i said before: Metal Slug isn´t worth $2000,00+, but there a lot of people outta there who won´t agree.
Take MS3, it´s brilliant and "THE BEST PART" IMO!!! And in addition, it´s much cheaper... <img src="graemlins/smirk.gif" border="0" alt="[Smirk]" />
Remember, some people think MS1 is worth $2,500,00+!!! So you nearly can´t grab a MS1 for $2000,00 or less. Keep that in mind.

KennyBoy:

It's none of my business, but you should realize that with the asking price of MS1 AES these days, you could buy a:

SNES
PSX
Saturn
X-Box
Genesis
PS2
Dreamcast
Gamecube
NES
GBA

And still have quite a bit left over for games! <img src="graemlins/makeface.gif" border="0" alt="[Make Face]" />

I just thought of that earlier today. In my opinion, Metal Slug is good...but IMO, the Mega Man X series is far superior, and can be had for a much, much cheaper price.

Like I said, it's not really my business, but I'm just offering you some food for thought. :)

Well, I'll break it down like this:

If I'm in the mood for some mindless button-mashin' fast-n-furious gameplay, the Metal Slug series is fine (don't have a system anymore, and NH is notorious for their lack of arcades, so this isn't an option anymore ;)

If I want action, replayability, more options, and a nifty story to go along with the mix, I'll take the X series (note how I'm specifying the X series, not the "Mega Man" series).

I'll consider moving this topic over to the unrelated forums some day, but I'm afraid my opinion is going to be just a weeee bit in the minority. ;)

Guys & Gals,

I really can't believe the surge in prices lately. It's very dissappointing. I am REALLY debating getting rid of all of my AES cartridges.

I really want a US MS1 to complete my collection. While I have the funds to pay for this hobby, I really must contemplate "aiding" in this price jacking mission.

Yes, I am a seller too. But this is unbelievable. It's getting to the point now where you MUST have THOUSANDS of dollars to have a SMALL, DECENT collection! I can handle 2, 3 or even 4 hundred dollars on one game. Although friends and family think I am crazy, I cannot justify spending THOUSANDS on ONE game alone!

I really like this site. I really like the forums...and I do like Shawn. He seems like a nice guy. But when "his" price guide is LOWER than his' stock's prices, that's telling you something. He has games in stock that are near DOUBLE in price than what the price guide suggest YOU should pay for the title. I sometimes wonder how he sells ANYTHING. If he would just drop his prices to the "high-side" of the price spectrum, he would be selling a shit-load of stock! Oh well, what do I know?!?

I have a Phantom1. I have NEVER used it since all the games I've wanted surfaced via AES. But now, I think I will be collecting only MVS. I could buy a nice car with the money from my AES collection!

If anyone has a MS1 US AES for a REASONABLE price, I would be very interested talking with you. Please refrain from sending my hate mail concerning the price situation. I have said myself many times, "If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen". Well....it looks I'm done baking!
