$50-$60 normally, yes, with complete copies running a little ways into triple digits. As for gameplay, I dunno if I'd pick it up, though; the SNES one wasn't quite my cup of tea.



Btw...if you'd rather have a Japanese version of Mother 2 (Super Famicom), I have a loose cart I could part with for, like, $13 shipped...

I have Earthbound (NES version) reproduced on a cart and I love it. When I first got it I played it and got to the Twinkle Elementary School and stopped for some reason. It's a great game and I'm not even a fan of RPGs. The game does get boring at some times, mostly when you have to spend lots of time leveling up to beat the next big enemy but the good heavily outweighs the bad. I think it's well worth it to play on real NES hardware, so I'd recommend getting it reproduced, or putting it on a PowerPak.

Back in the day, I had Earthbound complete. I used to love that game. I, too, plan on buying Earthbound Zero.

I never liked RPGs, either.

I see it on nesreproductions.com -- looks like you need to provide a donor cart, though.

you prob need to clear your cache out or something and it should work fine after that.
