Regular copies of NHL ‘94 aren’t worth much (because yearly sports releases have a lot of copies and are typically fungible with the year prior or later), but is still a fantastic game and worth the $17 market price. That said, 16-bit games have doubled to quadrupled in market price in the last 3-4 years and are becoming increasingly hard to find. I’m interested in seeing how a recession affects prices, but some rarer, low print games have been expensive for a decade add and probably won’t lose much value.
Obviously, who would have known, but at least in video games you can watch prices start to rise about 20 years after a consoles original life.
- nradov 5y agoAre there counterfeits being made? Seems like those games would be relatively easy to copy for someone with a little skill. I don't imagine many buyers are able to verify authenticity.
- jonhohle 5y agoThere are counterfeits, but they are easily spotted by inspecting PCBs, packaging, printing, etc. There may be some skill involved in identifying a counterfeit, but that’s true of most collectibles. If you get a copy of Snatcher for less than $1,000 it’s probably a counterfeit, and if you can’t tell, you probably wouldn’t be spending that much to begin with.
