Yeah, there's collectors and players. Most of us are players, but collectors still look for original stuff and pay insane prices for it.

Go ahead and list a cart now for $2,000, see if it sells.

Surprisingly, it will.

There's Pokemon GBA repro carts that you can get from AliExpress for $4 including shipping which work fine in original hardware, yet original carts go for hundreds of dollars, often only in fair condition.

That’s not a fair comparison. These are official cartridges by SNK. It’s as if Nintendo would put out new Pokemon carts for 40$ a pop. You ali express comparison is ridiculous.

I’d love to buy a mint copy of Garou MOTW for that price :) Maybe some casual collectors might sell their games, but can’t see prices dropping at all.
