The ultimate decision

My parents have told me that if I get straight A's this year (which is harder than it is in america so dont say anything) they would buy me whatever game i wanted regardless of the price. So im asking you guys what game you would get if you were given the choice. My first chocie is an Earthbound zero beta cartridge but i dont think thatll happen.

just one game? I guess that would depend on what systems you have...
panzer dragoon saga is #1 on my list

but aes games are always a fair bet, since they have a fair resale value even if you can't run them.

metal slug is about the most rare that you will be able to actually find

is panzer dragoon saga the one for the xbox? and yeah i was thinking of the japanese version of metal slug but for some reason i dont think my parents would be so cool with paying 2000 dollars

Panzer Dragoon Saga is for Saturn. If you do go for that one, make sure they don't get you the first or Zwei. While those are also fine games, Saga is the money one.

You should ask for a Gold NWC

yeah how many are there? like 10? Im sure my parents would be cool paying 10000 dollars

26 but all have not been accounted for. Last legitimate sale for one was $5900 us, but I'm sure the people that own one wouldn't take anything less than double that, at the minimum.

I'd say Castlevania SOTN. Not only is it sorta valuble in good nick, its my fave game on my PS1.

Well, that center comment wasn't exactly necessary; every school is different, and I'm sure there are PLENTY of schools here that are much tougher than yours. And judging by your capitalization and grammatical skills, I'd say your school can't be too tough...

I thought the point of this was to make your parents regret their uninformed reward. wait that wouldn't be good.

I hear initial D stage 4 is a nice game...
might not want to mention that it comes with hardware.

but seriously (since the initial d game probably costs more than a drifter) have you thought about asking for a pachinko machine? They go for $100-400 and often feature video game themes.

one of the starwars machines, or even the metal slug ones are pretty nice. check them out on ebay, and make sure that they're legal to have where you live. I have a 1960's one, but it's nothing like the high tech pachinko machines they have now with electronic firing and mini games on lcd screens.
you know you want one

Oh come on CTF thats not fair, and i realise my school isnt the toughest, i just dont want to hear a bunch of people whining about how they dont get anything for straight A's and that thats just expected. But yeah i need to work on my grammar. Ive been to 5 different schools since grade school and this one is the toughest. the rest i would get straight A's without doing any work where as here without doing anything im getting a B average. You know, just thinking about it my grades are kinda how you would expect from a forum goer, A's in math and science C's in PE and English. So im going to ask my dad if hes going to cap the price at all ad then ill see if he would care if i got hardware, and if i can ill see if i can get an AES and an MVS to AES convertor. Anyway sorry for all the grammatical errors in here but i live in spain and being around spanish people will make you forget your language or just screw it up a lot.

bubble bath babes see what they say

jk. you should get that one rare NES game

it's cheaper to just buy the mvs than an aes/converter. trust me, I lost a chunk of living room making that decision. but that's if they're willing to consider hardware, which may not be the case.

Neo Geo consoles aren't actually that expensive on eBay. The games however cost a lot, depending on their radness and/or the knowledge of the seller, although most Neo Geo owners know the price stuff.
