Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver

[Gyawdyr]

hello

 

so years ago i purchased pokemon heartgold and soulsilver from walmart brand new, game still in shrink wrap

(only the plastic case that holds the cartridge is shrink wrapped, the gold/silver foil box it comes in never came shrink wrapped for any copy sold).

bought them for $40 each.

now they go for $200 to $300 new on ebay or amazon.

 

should i try to sell it? would you keep yours if it were brand spankin new?

If I was in your place I would keep it.

How tf are they is expensive now?

Don't confuse asking price with selling price. Look at how much they're actually selling for, which you can do on ebay by ticking the appropriate boxes on the side of the search results. A quick look on ebay UK doesn't show anything silly, although listings with pokewalker go for a bit more than those that don't.

To be quite honest, I shouldn't think they would go for anywhere near that actual price now because of how many ROM's can be downloaded online in emulators rather than the actual consoles themselves. Either way, Keep them

are you certain that it aren't the gameboy colour versions?

If a person ever needed to liquidate their games, there's a high probability that their Pokémon game(s) are going to be the bulk of the worth. 

 

Probably an exaggerated statement, but should make the point.
