Did anyone buy snes chrono Trigger back in the day?

[magomago]

I'm trying to convince my friend that this game was 80 dollars. He swears to me that he got it for 50 dollars.

The only proof I have is this site: http://www.fantasyanime.com/squaresoft/ctabout.htm

but he doesn't believe it.

Of course I'm sure he'll think you are all liars (He never trusts me when I tell him everyone on ATOT makes 100k, has 14 inches and 2 hot babes )

but I want to see if anyone here did indeed buy the game retail many many moons ago and paid 80 for it. Thanks =)

Sweet jesus that was a long time ago. I had it (and still do) but I can't even begin to tell you how much I paid for it.

Oh wait, I paid 80 bucks.... yea, 80 bucks.

 

[mpitts]

I am 100% postive it was $70 ($69.99) when I purchased it. This was on it's release day.

 

[RadiclDreamer]

I paid over $90 for it at sears when I bought it. It was when it first came out

 

[BigJ]

$80 is the first number that came to mind when I read the thread title.

 

[mpitts]

BTW, here are some links with the info.

 

[Soundmanred]

I paid $59.99 each for Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy III at Wal Mart when they first came out.

I paid $70 for a used cartridge in '99.

What, would you use the Epoch to go back 2 months in time and bid on it

 

[Kelvrick]

And people complain when the 360 and ps3 have games for 60 bucks.

Obviously you've never played the game, its worth the price and more unlike the games of today.

Plus I believe it was a larger capacity cart which caused it to cost vastly more to produce

I remember it being $70. I need to see if I still have the game.

I remember Phantasy Star 4 was $99 retail.

 

[Skunkwourk]

It was $70 from Toys R us, back when people still went there to buy video games. At the time I couldn't bring myself to spend that much so I borrowed it from a friend. I found it in a used games store 3 or 4 years ago, paid $20 for it.

I have, both on my snes, on the computer as a rom years later and then in my dreams when Chrono Resurrection was shut down.

Back when it came out, 80 bucks was well, probably the equivalent to about 500+ bucks to me now, and iono if I'd pay that much for a game. Luckily my brother bought it.

I paid $70 for a game genie just to do the stupid ass boss code in the original Street Fighter II.

EDIT: and yes thats after not paying $70 for Chrono Trigger, I fail.
