Quoted from konghusker:I agree 100%. Huo is definitely the best way to go. That said, people still have to buy nib to keep these companies going. I only buy a nib game that is a strong theme/game that my family will really want. I tend to not sell my games, so I buy long term. I would have definitely saved a few thousand total if I had bought my nib purchases used instead. Even then though, I personally can't keep up with huo prices even, and that's probably true for most people here. If I'm not willing to part with a game, then I'm stuck with where I'm at. Not a serious deal in the big picture, but jjp games new or used are still expensive. Beautiful kick ass games, but still expensive. Definitely waiting to see where the huo Di games price out at in next year or so.
You couldn’t know by advance. Less NIB doesn’t mean death of the manufacturer for sure. the company can restructure and/or review its business strategy as selling cheaper to boost sales. All depend on the behavior of the shareholders and their vision of short-term and long-term business. Do they want to make quickly more money as possible?
Prices are crazy now. SW LE is between 10500-11000€ here! Just calculate what it does in dollar!
Who can follow that prices? Second market is not really a choice, it is a duress, even one or 2 years later.
