Jeremy: Following up with the second and final part of our White Whales conversation, this episode sees me and Stuart and Kevin talking about more preposterously expensive collector's pieces. Maybe the most preposterous! There were some wildly unaffordable 8-bit games that popped up in our previous discussion, and yet! Somehow some of the pieces this episode are even more expensive! Listen to this episode, and then go hug your Steam sale backlog. Budget-friendly games are more precious than ever these days.

I got the JP release of Amazing Tater for less than $10.

“Prophet of Saturn” cover art is back on this episode as well. Can anyone share if that actually has some deeper meaning behind it?

Eyy, Tail Concerto mention! I have a copy of Solatorobo: Red the Hunter that I bought at release (Red Savarin was and still is a big furry crush for me, after all), and I hear that's a bit of a white whale on DS but I can't bring myself to see just how much my copy is worth now. It boggles the mind that Fish Dude, the game that Jeremy made a very special episode of Game Boy Works out of given its price, complete with Big Lebowski parody opening and closing, has been eclipsed in price by quite a few games, to a degree of fivefold (in the case of Amazing Tater) or more! Perhaps Jeremy's treatment of Fish Dude is making me treat Fish Dude specially too...

Of my collection, Jack Bros complete is probably the most expensive game I own. But I bet I have a dozen games worth more than my rarest game, Civilization for Nokia N-Gage. I should try to get it autographed by Sid Meier just for $#!ts and giggles.

Ughh. 28 years ago I had a chance to snag a new copy of Dracula X for $15. Being a poor college student at the time, I talked myself out of it. I've been lucky enough to have purchased a few games through the years that would become fairly rare, but missing out on one of my favorite Castlevanias, complete in box, is a huge regret of mine.
