Well I am in quite a predicament, as many of you know I picked up a factory sealed copy of Battletoads & Double Dragon: The Ultimate Team last week, I really want to play the game but I can't decide if I want to open it. Granted my philosophy is that I will never be selling it so why should I keep it sealed? on the other hand it looks so beautiful sealed I don't want to open it. So i'm going to let all of you decide with a poll! and if I do open it I can add it to the list of factory sealed game contents, and I'll have that nostalgia of being a kid again opening a new game.

Normally I say open sealed stuff to catalog it for the wizard, but on this I say leave it sealed. This is a tough to find title period, and nearly impossible sealed I would think. I wouldn't open it cause it is worth way to much money to have a nostalgia feeling. Leave that bitch sealed

I voted no because you should sell it to me. Although it looks like Dain already beat me to it!

Dain, one of these days I'll be able to buy your Myriad. Then I'll open that motherfucker.

"It's always amazing to me how some of the most worthless games from a gaming perspective tend to fetch outrageous amounts of money. But then again, it could be said that something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. I'm curious if the high bidder of the $873.04 Stadium Events (cart-only) realizes that it's nowhere nearly as rare as about 20+ games I can think of that sell for 1/10th that amount?  At any rate, I wanted to draw attention to this trend: if people say it's rare, it must be true, and therefore it must be had at any price."

And if you do, you need to video tape it, because that would be one seriously cool thing to witness!

In fact, everyone from the site should drive to one spot and we'll have a Myriad opening party
