As you may know about me, I collect video games. Unfortunately, I also have limited funds and space and have been leaning more towards vintage then necessarily rare. As such I decided to sell a game I’ve had for a while in Suikoden 2 for the original Playstation. I’m not selling it here of course, it’s listed for sale on Ebay so anyone could buy it (original link removed, see below).
For those who haven’t had a chance to play it, Suikoden 2 for those who haven’t heard of it is a rare JRPG released in 1999. Due to a limited production run and little public interest during it’s release, the game has, on average, tripled its original MSRP in recent years. Since it’s release, Suikoden 2 has been one of the more highly regarded RPGs for the Playstation but it’s rarity has driven up the price. I’ve seen people pay over $300 for a sealed/unopened copy of the game.
I, of course, played my copy, so it likely won’t go for as much, and would highly recommend it to those looking for a little 90s gaming magic. Suikoden 2 best feature is by far its world. Over 100 characters can be thrown into battle, which takes place in a tactical grid style similar to Fire Emblem or Final Fantasy Tactics. Overall, it’s a nice, fun game. Also, pretty long as you’d expect from a Japanese style RPG.
Anyway, if interested head over to my Ebay listing and take a look (link removed, see below). All the details are there for those looking for a particular condition. In short, it is complete but has been played.
Update: the game has been sold already. I’ve removed the links because I didn’t want people to get frustrated heading to a finished auction listing. Of course, I’d highly recommend checking Ebay as there’s always a number of people looking to sell their copy.
