Feels like a little bit of JPN FOMO LOL
It blows my mind the things that people will place value on.
yeah i agree with you greg
very very nice greg
Damn I want those
Seem like only go after huge games in NA and only sell high graded stuff. Anything vga 85 or lower you might as well hold until the market settles
I actually do have one sealed I will never ever get rid of it
The result of investorinos going nuts trying to catch the next wave of anything. This is not much different from the CIB uptick, or the pandemic boom. People see movement and start spending without enough info to make sound decisions... I've always said, there's always more stock out there, and especially in Japan. With that said, I think some Japanese games will be valuable just for how well they present, and how they capture the mood of the games.
Because of you, I just posted my only JP game and just sold it in less than 1h 😂
hahah I hope you are saying this as a good thing!
@GetTheGreg yes I was happy selling haha, I thought JP was getting a little hype so I sold it
That's awesome then man! Glad I could give you that little extra motivation to get it done haha
@@GetTheGreg now your turn to sell stuff 😂 youve been mentioning that you need to post more stuff for sale lol
ooo
I'm going all in on Japanese Duck Hunt.
Hahah infinite money glitch. You can't possibly lose!
Not that late because it isn't the last snes model
I haven't seen many Rockman 3 pop up for sale on YAJ either, but I do know a seller on ebay was trying to sell at least 3 of them in 85/85+ grade a few years ago. Not sure what the VGA pop looks like for that game.
It's certainly going to be interesting how this effects the local store in Japan! 👀
All of the tourist game shops will have to double their already egregious pricing haha
@@GetTheGreg 😆
Games have been going up on some games. And people are buying in Japan and selling on eBay to american buyers, and for higher prices
This might be rarer than a sealed 5 screw copy of 1
So what Greg is saying is, the Japanese game market is still as fresh as his hair cut
This guy gets it.
When I think of Japanese games, i think the hot and expensive ones being exclusives like say Earthbound series which we only got the 2nd game. And famicom disk,n64dd
Great video Greg! Could I get that website you use to search for Japanese sealed games? I would love Naruto Gekitou Ninja Taisen 4 sealed because it was my first ever imported game when I was 11
In order to search on Yahoo Auctions Japan, you have to use a proxy service like FromJapan, Buyee, ZenMarket, etc. So I'd recommend looking at their different fees and reading some reviews of them and then choosing which to use. I have personally used Buyee and I know many others who are happy with ZenMarket. Just slight differences amongst them!
buying: none, selling: all
😳
I thought Animal Crossing would have been higher. Decent grade. I have The Frog for whom the Bell Tolls on Gameboy ready to grade maybe sell but I’m worried no-one knows about the Japanese exclusives yet lol. Great video. Thanks for sharing
I actually agree with you on animal crossing! I have a double of that one in similar grade that I'm just going to hold onto for now given that sale price
Awesome video! I wonder how many more people we need in the Japanese space for the common stuff to not be "common" haha (100 people? 1000 people? 10,000 people? :O ) It'd really stonk if we get people in Japan into the graded / unopened / sealed collecting
I would love to know how many JP people are participating in these auctions. Obviously theree are some very serious JP collectors that exist, but how widespread is this whole graded/unopened thing at this point?
Really great stuff!
Really great comment!
Haircut looks nice Greg!
Hey thanks haha!
Japanese versions are the real original versions…
100%. Market is way too US centric. US Zelda is like the third print of it.
Sounds like "Japanese to the mooooooonnnn!"
Depends on the game, yeah for the most part though.
What are you talking about? You mean my zelda sealed with 8 screws, with trademark of 1981 and legend on the left of the logo isn't the first print of the game? I call BS
A lot of what is going on right now is reminiscent of when graded games in general started hitting Heritage and other auction sites. Some of these purchases will likely end up being great in the next 3-5 years (assuming JP video games is a "thing" that sticks), and some of them, like Secret of Mana and/or FFV, will likely see their values go down as many more get sent in for grading and begin cycling in the market. With these JP auctions only happening once or twice a year, the price corrections and discovery phase is going to be a lot slower than what we experienced with North American games. There is just way less volume in general. Frankly, it's a good time to be selling some of this more common stuff (the stuff that is well known to be common) while the values are high. Interested in consigning with Heritage? Use this link for free appraisals and to start the process (if your games are raw, include pictures when possible): www.ha.com/free-appraisals.s?slug=www&ic=WorthFreeAuctionEvaluation-010113
But why 8kntho
I bought a Canadian slip and game for like 100 bucks. I'll just get that graded LOL
Wata has been proven to be a scam company.
Golden pack kkkkk
I have an unsealed copy and an opened copy
Manufactured market. People sitting on graded copies are getting anxious and want their payout
Only started collecting for the 360 some.months ago because its a huge library with a lot of reslly great games for cheap. Then fomo hit crazy. I cant wait for this 360 store to close already tbh, then after a few months when peoole stop caring, 98% of 360 games are gonna go back to normal pricing. Honestly.. I hadn't even checked mercari, ebay, etc in the last month+ until today... and tons of games I was eyeing have already dropped $15-20+ than what they were going for in April/May. Cant wait for the bubble to burst back to noone caring about the 360. This happens everytime.
i bought one for like 2k a few years ago, made the right choice it seems
same grade
My first snes game
I got smash on Wii u
If I can ask, why sealed and graded? I mean you can’t play your games and you pay 2,3,4x you would for a ungraded version. I’d useally let this fall under the “it’s not my money” category but by supporting this your inflating the market for people who actually play video games
Premium condition comes with a premium price; I want mint copies so I buy grades that correlate to the condition I want. When I can get them raw in the condition I want, I also do that. But buying them already graded can also save money overall - it's about knowing when you should and shouldn't pay a premium for what you're getting. And those gamers will have to get some emulators or something haha. We are all competing for the same limited supply.
Hey Greg, looks like this one went viral, you should do less content like this so you don’t blow up and I 😊can continue to have easy access to you
😂
No one is one playing it and retro games are not worth the money they are graded
Was the game and the slip cover graded At the same time?, in the same slab or different slabs.?
In the same slab. The slipcover is on top of the actual game
No way people are paying that much for a game that just released
It's all about that delicious slipcover 🤤
So sad ill get the normal version a lot cheaper and better. 😅
@GetTheGregGames your WATA sale is here, 15% off of all levels 😀
It's about dang time!
Absolute insanity 😮
Lmao 8k you got ripped off.
That much money and he couldn’t even do free shipping. The buyer is not without blame either. Clearly he or she is stupid to at least not attempt to have shipping be free. This is why scalpers win. Stupid scalpers; stupid buyers.
It was an auction so the shipping price was set and known well before the actual end price.
If I had these games in these conditions or any other game, I would rip them open and play them. If I'm gonna buy a game to just look at, then I might as well just look at pictures online. Video games were supposed to be played. LIBERATE THE PLASTIC! ENJOY THE THINGS YOU OWN! That game you are keeping locked up, someone else could be enjoying. Not just looking at it.
I'm enjoying it, thanks!
I also question how popular game collecting will be in 20+ years. We now have entire generations of kids growing up without owning physical copies of games. They probably won't have the same nostalgia we have towards holding a copy of a game in their hands
I've never been a sealed or graded collector. To me it's like owning a classic car but never driving it. Minty CIB copies are where it's at. I can actually play the games or thumb through the manuals
Waste of money
