eBay: How much would YOU pay for Brawl?

Published by Christian at 12:24 pm

You know, it’ll be at least two and a half to three years before we have a slight chance of a new home console launch from any major company, and probably only slightly less for a new handheld from anyone either. Scalpers are going to need to find their income some other way, and it looks like it’s going to be through popular software.

The Japanese version of Super Smash Bros. Brawl has hit eBay, and is going for $242 at the moment. That’s almost five times the actual price just to get it a month early. Worth it? (Answer: No.)

    if you live in europe, thats a bargin 6 months+ early and thats only about €160 which is a little more then double the price.

    But you need a Japan Wii, correct?

    Yeah, wouldn’t those not work on an American Wii, what with region lock and all that?

    Mhm. You would need a Japanese Wii to play the game legally.

    is there any kind of freeloader in the works for the wii, like the one for the gamecube that let you play imports?
