StucklnMyPants 08/27/17 7:53:52 AM #13:	I'm convinced Nintendo has an entire department that handles multiple eBay and Amazon accounts that "appear" to be from 3rd party sellers, entirely for the purpose of selling them at higher prices without having to go through brick and mortar distributors. In a few years, they'll probably announce that they're able to handle their own distribution of their consoles and games, and buyers will only be able to purchase those items directly from Nintendo, at premium prices of course. --- The first principle is that you must not fool yourself --- and you are the easiest person to fool. <cite>StucklnMyPants posted [p:885528169] in SNES Class...
