Jesus christ, that's expensive!

I started Pokémon when it first came out and stopped after gen III. I've recently picked it back up not to long ago with ORAS and started feeling nostalgic for gen II so I wanted to try HGSS out. There is no way I'm paying that much! I didn't realize it would cost so much.

All you can always emulate it.
>>
>>26536093
Why would you buy a sealed, new one?
>>
>>26536097
Don't have a desk top yet. Maybe my toaster of a laptop can though I'm not entirely sure if it can.
>>
>>26536113
Do you have a decent smartphone, maybe from the last 2/3 years? emulation on those things is pretty tight.
>>
>>26536104
I brought up used and they still start around $60
>>
>>26536130
There's plenty of copies with the case on eBay for around $55.

I have a Galaxy S6 Edge. Probably should have thought of using my phone before.

If not rooted drastic emulator cost 6 dollars and is fucking worth it

Lol, fucking summer poor fag.
Finish college and maybe you will be able to buy a new copy if you land a decent job.

Woah.

>>26536093
$50 is your best bet.
I see them at Gamestop all the time.
If you manage to get a Pokewalker as well (never more than $30 on ebay) it'll help with the shitty level curve.

Try living in seattle faggot.

How about you leave fucking America if it's so bad.

Feels good man.

I got both. I remember regretting it too, but now it's all about holding off on selling as the price for them reaches even more absurd levels.

Same. I still remember that day, went to buy a PS3, but it came in a bundle with WWE and some other sports game. Friend says we should sell the games at GameStop if I'm not gonna play it. We go I sell them and he remembers it's HGSS release day. I only have $10 from the games he pays the rest. I spent month playing Pokémon and Modern Warfare.
>>
>>26536093
And I sold mine some time ago because I'm the dumbest person ever.
Welp, mistakes have been made. Nothing will come from spitting over spilt milk, gotta start collecting the games from beginning.
>>
I don't even understand why a fucking Pokemon game on DS costs that much.

They didn't produce as many copies as they should have? What gives?

There's plenty of sealed copies sitting at a Kmart or some shit in the furthest corners of Wyoming and Vermont, with the $39.99 price; still.

Do you have a Gamestop near you or something similar, Anon? Mine always has at least a few in there. Sure they're not brand new or sealed or anything but it's a cheaper alternative
>>
>>26540866
Yeah. I didn't see it last time but maybe that's changed by now.

Has anybody had any luck at a flea market? I know people sell shit there without knowing it's actual value

I'm an Autist and before I got back into Pokemon, I had a heart gold laying around from when it came out. I sold my DS to a local but I sold my HeartGold on 99gamers for 10 bucks with a box and manual and store box. It sold within 10 minutes of posting and I wondered why. A few months later, I decided to get into X and Y and out of curiosity, I looked up HeartGold and they were going for upwards of 50 bucks complete. I never hated myself more
