I'm getting closer and closer every day to just saying fuck it and playing burns, emulators, and and USB loaders. Actually I have converted most of my games to ROMS and ISO via everdrive or USB loaders. This, Magical Chase, and Sega Saturn are the reasons why. If people wouldn't bid these prices, then people would start selling them for less. It's past insane at this point.

The life of a legal gamer is becoming more and more tough these days. These are dark times for collecting.

So the value of 1 Aes Blazing Star is equal to about 25 Blazing Star MVS Kit's apparently.

This is crazy. Where does it stop in future listings with the current trend? 10k? 20k?

Better off playing your roms in the most authentic way you can and sit on whatever you own. Might be worth a holiday by the looks of it.

From an economic stand point, this is interesting. The bubble has to burst at some point.

This is insane. You have to be an elite level big tyme ballah to be able to drop 7k on a game cartridge like this.

Should we allow to put money and select "AES collection" as one of investment options in our 401k? ;)

I'm sure G Man is busy brewing as we speak. I see the Neo store has a new stock of Deadalus and plenty of DG related goods.

Ooohhh!!! gotta go and get that daedalus to play MVS NGDev stuff on the AES!! :keke:

DavidG is coming out of retirement, this is a BS conversion.

200+ compared to $7k though.

At least this guy has the "decency" of creating new boards for the conversions (atomik?). Those cost some money, and the shell, paperwork etc. too. Not saying $200 is cheap for this boot, but if it works perfectly, and it does not sacrifice any original game, it sounds like an option for gamers.
