Yep, forget horse racing, video game collecting is the new sport of kings.
Someone buys a cheap but good game for a few bucks at a goodwill store, sells it for $10 on eBay; a buyer (read: game store) immediately snaps it up while later selling it for $15 to make a few dollars; another buyer buys it, then sells for $20 for profit; game then goes for $30, $40, $50, going from game store to game store to game store, each increasing the price of the game because no-one wants to break even in a business.
Also, any multi-platform game featuring the Nintendo logo is automatically 2 to 20 times the price of the exact same game not featuring the Nintendo logo.
