John: Dan lot, NGPC, and Modded GB

Played: Ghost of Tsushima

 

Dan: Kirby and the rainbow curse, Metroid NES, Balan Wonderworld.Played: Skyward Sword.

 

The price is RETRO

How to play:

I’m going to list off 4-5 games.

You’re going to guess how much the games are worth in total, dollars and cents.

Whoever is closest to guessing the actual price of the lot, wins that lot.

Everyone has a list, and everyone guesses.The “ghost” always guesses $300

 

New Rule! Starting now.The overall winner is NOT determined by how close you are to guessing.The winner is now the person who got the closest the most number of times.And we’ll use closest by dollar amount as a tie breaker.Capiche? 

Dan’s list

Sam’s list

John’s list

 

“Blank-o-pedia”

“I’m going to start reading the description of a game from wikipedia. As soon as you think you know, yell it out!. If you’re wrong I’m giving the other person an opportunity to guess. If you’re both wrong I’ll keep reading until someone else buzzez in.”

Questions

Community Couch Questions:

 

oops:

What’s a fair price for Plok? Price charting shows it at $25. It doesn’t seem like the Plok market has recovered from Ploktober, because all the listings I find are in the $30 range?  That brings me to the question for the couch. How long do you think impacts like this last on the markets of specific games? Can they change a standard game price long term?

Fight Crab Fanatic:

If you had the power to veto one game from being published which one would it be

1. Leisure Suit Larry in Mario World
2. Nintenskunks
3. Superman 64 HD remaster (no changes to gameplay or controls)
4. Dr. Mario Surgery Simulator
5. Donkey Kong Dating Sim
6. Kingdom Hearts (just cutscenes edition)
