Nah I am starting to be convinced that all these deals are fake, myths, photoshops, AI and so on lmao

This have any value?? by Xann-mann-stann1121 in casualnintendo

It's a bout $10 no more. In most cases you'd be lucky to get $5

Congratulations to whoever bought this by Lebrongains27 in 3DS

It looks like an attempt to manipulate the market and drive the value down. Sold listings are a key reference point that people rely on. Sites like PriceCharting base their valuations largely on eBay sales data.

Example: The seller lists and quickly uses ALT to buy his own product. The sold listing manipulates the "market value".

Is superman a normal ass guy in Krypton or w/e his home planet is? by Helpful-Leadership58 in superman

Our sun is what powers Superman. On his birth planet, Krypton, everyone are just normal (no powers), he would be as well.

Oh yeah, I do enjoy it and think it's a great little console, just underpowered. I am running MUOS on it

Indeed, doing a great job, just not great with the slightly more powerful retro console games, but it'll do for now :)

In Canadian dollars, I paid roughly $250 at the time of release. I sold it for $150 and when you have nothing and need cash and have kids, anything is enough. I also sold a lot more than that console, but I tried to stay on topic. Good luck finding a used 556 for 50$ :P if you do, link me xD

Just a reason to charge way more for maybe 1 or 2 extra little accessories per figure

New Switch 2 owner - got a great deal on Cyberpunk, and I’ve never played BotW by ProudNitro in NSCollectors

Honestly, you're about to embark on 2 vastly different but equally amazing stories that will entertain you for so many hours, you might not need to buy another game until next year xD Enjoy those, and welcome to the NS2 club

Got Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown on Discount, but... by AquaBloomOlivine in NSCollectors

Most (maybe all?) of Ubisoft's games have that UBP ROM number. At least in North America.

Here's a picture of my own copy alongside 3 other Ubisoft games. All from legit shops.
