Title: WTB: Juuryoku Soukou Metal Storm
Post by: mitsuruga on March 08, 2020, 06:28:55 am
Hey people,

I´m new here, because I am looking for this game for a long time and I thought I might increase my chances by register here.

So, the game should be complete and at least in good shape. Looking forward to any offers.

Thank you.

Have you tried looking on eBay and Yahoo Japan Auctions / Buyee?  There are usually a couple listed there you could make an offer on.

The game is obviously really expensive, and has shot up since I bought mine some years back, this always happens.

Does it need to e a geniune item or are you happy with a reproduction?  I noticed a few of those around as well.

Right now there is only one complete copy of Metal Storm on yahoo and the asking price is almost 400 Euro, which is too much. The ebay listings are also not very promising.

And yes, I´m looking for the original.

I think it depends on your budget - they are selling for that amount, but it all depends on condition.

A friend sold his copy recently for nearly 400 Euros shipped - the recent re-release and coverage has boosted IMO:

Of course some folks want to get a minty price for a regular condition (or worse) but you can always send them an offer.

Just seriously though, how much cash would you want to spend on old games for kids??

Good point MaarioS, i'm sure everything you've bought has always been perfectly reasonable and intended for the greater good.
