    We are glad the vendor stuck to his price after finding out how much that slip cover is worth, but we hope to find it without the slip cover because that $200 is more important to us 😅

    ChoroQ is a pretty unique game. I'll be interested to hear what you guys think of it. The Vasteel seller should have done a better job of explaining why he had it priced at $500 (which is reasonable for Vasteel with the sleeve). FYI - Exile: Wicked Phenomenon also has a cardboard sleeve like Vasteel (and is also expensive).

    Hello JRPG life! I have been watching your videos for a few months now, back when I didn't have my own account, but now I do and I subscribed to you (and hit the like button for this video). I love these kinds of videos so much as it is JRPG collecting. You even sometimes collect Japanese imports, which for me, is the highlight of this series. I use the Switch as my primary console of choice to play new and old games (mostly new as of late), but I want my video game collection to be a collection Nintendo Switch (and Switch 2 games when it comes out) and a few non-Nintendo console Japanese games such as the Dreamcast, PC-FX, and PS3. I love video game Japanese collecting, so that's why I love your channel.

      @@JRPGLife No problem guys! You are one of my favorite youtubers. Also, there is one game that I recommend that you play that is coming out this summer is Powerful Pro Baseball 2024-2025 (Pawapuro 2024-2025) by Konami and it is the latest entry in the long running series that never got chance outside Japan. While it is in Japanese, the baseball gameplay segment of the game does not require any knowledge of Japanese in order to play. The series is known for its arcadey and simple, yet very addictive gameplay. It is coming to Switch and PS4 (you can buy either version) in July 18th only in Japan, but you can preorder (or order) it at PlayAsia. And the opening of the game is amazing and nostalgic. I know you usually don't buy stuff from PlayAsia or buy Japanese imports, but please take this recommendation into consideration. You will enjoy it and have a blast with this game with the baseball gameplay alone, which will last you for hours and hours.

    Waiting has worked and backfired on me. As you know I’m doing the vita set 286/317 currently. I waited almost a year and half for ar no surge and breach and clear at prices I’d pay. But now games like farming simulator 18 I skipped go for absurd prices. Like man I don’t wanna pay $60-80 for that game.

    i get why he asks somuch more than the ebay price.
    the firt thing that peopel either threw out or got destroyed over time is paper and cardboardpackaging, sowith it inmint state even is totally where the expensiveness is coming from
    you willnot be finding it any cheaper WITH the cardboard, but if you just want the game, loose disc goes for 210 so if you really want the game youcan get itmuch cheaper.

      Because that's what we understood the value to be. Once we looked it up with the sleeve afterward, we realized that he could ask a bit more. That being said, the game has sold with the sleeve for $300 recently, so it's all water under the bridge at this point 🙂

    I can see why that slip cover is so rare since it literally falls right off the case. Its $200 out of my weekly cardboard budget tho 😅
    By the way what Working Designs game did you find the most disappointing? For me it was Dragon Force. The game is by no means bad its just alot of ppl in retro forums say its the best game on the console so it hyped me up. When I played it I found its slow, boring and mad complicated but maybe im just stupid...Its been about 6 years since I got it so maybe ill give it another shot.

    I don’t see any solds for that vasteel slipcover. If resellers are gonna start factoring in unsold listings maybe us buyers should start factoring the 2 dollars people pay at a garage sale 😂.
    Edit: I guess there are 2 solds in the past year. Maybe my search parameters didn’t go back enough but either way I’d expect a bit under 500 especially cash.
    Surprised that’s not the version yall want? Cause in the past you’ve passed on ones without the registration card.

    • @JRPGLife

    ...nways, that seller probably thinks Vasteel will possibly get higher obviously since the TurboGrfx engine is trending right now for retrogamers, but you'd probably yet to see more of it in the open market, just not on these conventions. Ive spotted some on garage sale videos ive watched, so unless you'd go out your way to look for them in the wilds, you'd be finding these priced speculatively.
    That Cosic Fantasy 2 (ENG) is a great grab tho.

I never was able to get into it and always wished they did a 2d version back when Gladly it got a good version now. That box is cool tho--
