My name is Michael Doeringer please research my user name as I've been using it since 1999, my original post asking about these 5 games has pictures, the ones I listed after my wife told me as they were the next 5, when I left my house this am I had no clue what earth bound even was, because at that point it meant nothing to me.

I think because of the amount of games I have I will sell these first 5, wait for the feedback and then list the remainder.

I am located in Naples, FM and anyone that would like to see my little collection in person is more than welcome too.

I should never of posted anything more than what I was able to focus on laying text tag with my wife in retrospect was not ideal. But my thought process didn't fathom the value.

Any custom pictures of the 5 games in the first post I'd be happy to take, as I brought them with me.

I encourage everyone to be cautious, and ask for different info, because I don't know what I really have, what I'm looking for in terms of grading,and worth. I have a good deal of games, and many of you threw PM have been great in giving me a crash course in vintage gaming

(Again pardon any spelling, grammar, or Syntex errors as I'm using voice dictation on my galaxy nexus

Be smart here everyone. I have no reason to believe what the OP says isn't true, but we have seen people show up with awesome stories before. Be sure to protect yourself if you are sending money, ie NO GIFT.

By the way, there is no such thing as a factory sealed Earthbound. They didn't come sealed.

yeah, didnt they just have the little circle sticker thingys on the ends?
def no shrink wrap

also, can someone clear this up for me too
did they release a "normal" size box of earthbound in the box without the guide?
I saw one they other day, and wasnt sure if the box was just a reprint?
thanks
 

They made a normal size box for retail display, not for sale this way though.

I dunno and i hope im wrong but im not seeing this hype like everyone else is. Im seeing a possible scam here. Here's my reasonings

1. Op originally said he joined because of these games. however first thread started by OP, said they joined because the want to expand their knowledge and never once mentioned anything about having a sealed treasure trove of games in a closet. http://www.nintendoage.com/forum/...

2. I havent seen pics of anything besides Jurassic park and DK2 in his sellers thread. which are both WAY different than EB and NGT. (however someone did comment of how nice the NGT is in this thread http://www.nintendoage.com/forum/......... but i dont see a pic anymore?

3. Story sounds bogus, how could a 13 year old kid, receive games as gifts and your parents dont know that you secretly stashed sealed games in your closet LOL. I mean everytime i got a new game when i was a kid,  (especially from my parents) they would watch me like a hawk to see if i even enjoy the $60 "toy" they just got me. And for someone who hates video games, how did you end up with 50 of them. Including some of the most ludricous titles.

i dunno. do i believe the op has some games. YES, do i believe they have all the titles mentioned sealed. NO

Just saying, and sorry if i somehow missed all the evidence somewhere. AS BA mentions, be careful guys.

hmmmmm ok.  not there anymore for some reason or another, so my post and thoughts remain the same until something slaps me in the face here. Or to whoever took a chance and snagged the NGT and shows it off in the Finders keepers thread. whichever comes first heh he. 

Even still ..........did all the pros check and make sure NGT pics were legit and not copied from somewhere else.??

and EVEN STILL.... NGT sealed is a major difference then EB and Mountain Bike/ SR Sealed

Yes NGT was a legit sealed game, for what it's worth. No question about that. Looked 85 maybe 85+ but I didn't study it closely.

It doesn't make sense, how can you have ''forgotten'' to open all those game as a kid. Also the selection of game make it feel a bit fishy to me. Maybe I'm paranoid though.
