When you get older you will understand it... memories have better graphics than any "new" ultimate version game.

I'm not sure if its in this case its memories or simply a completionist desire. The winner already had the game without box. By itself, he's selling the game for $5000. So really, its the BOX that he's paying about $25,000 grand for, a box he had never seen before.

Great link, thanks for sharing it... and yes, some people understand classic value, some don´t, I instead can´t see the appealing of this new era games, they are just better repaints of the same games from yesterday, nothing really new have surfaced since the 8-bit era.

Long live the 80´s.

When kids grow and get to 25 or more they will understand... in my time I liked "new" but then I discovered that almost nothing is really new...

I seriously doubt anyone is buying this for the "memories" this is entirely about collecting. In the same way someone would spend thousands of dollars for a comic book or an action figure, people would spend thousands for a rare game. It's that simple.

There's nothing to explain. You're entitled to your opinion but your post was ignorant.
