Sweet Jesus I never thought I'd see one with the box.

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

For memories, anyone who like to have it and have the money.

[Sewer Bull]

You can have like, a brand new car for that.

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.
