I love Pokemon and own at least one game from every mainline set. Heart Gold, included.

But then like 3 years ago my 13 year old step-nephew asked if he could borrow it. And even though I rarely ever lend games to people, against all instinct I told him sure.
Weeks later I asked for it back, he said he was still playing. Weeks after that I asked again and he said he had to look for it. Weeks later I asked yet again and he said he still needs to find it.

Never got it back. To this day I still hold it against him and don't like the kid lol.
Dang, that's rough. It's exactly why I never let people borrow games, just too much of a hassle, and too much stress.

As for those saying the price has always been high, I just figured the recent retro boom for GCN era also came to the 3DS when it comes to cart + box being super expensive nowadays. I mean, I can buy it, but it was more of a "would be nice to spend like 10 bucks on a cart if I have to and play good ol' pokemon." Spending basically 30 on a cart only on such an old game is not really a necessity for me. Sucks to hear that this game basically has never really devalued over time (and in fact, if you have the box, has actually increased since release).
