Your really dumb for opening up a brand new out of print game. Wish there weren't as many idiots as you. Then factory sealed games wouldn't be so rare.
@tylerlovescorndogs When did I say it was rare? Never. The only think rare about it is the fact I opened a brand new SNES game. A game is only worth what you pay for it, plus Star Fox is ten a penny.
The only thing rare about this game is that it was made by RARE. :)
@tyzwain only idiots think sealed games are Rare?? are u fuckin stupid. EG: Chrono Trigger open with box. £100 now Chrono Trigger Sealed box £4000 does this make any sence, i dont understand fucking idiots like you opening snes games wats the point in buying it to open it wen u could just buy in opened cond for a few £ sealed games are for collectors not nobheads like u openeing them u have no idea i agree totally with tylerlovescorndogs ur a prick ppl who do this make no sence
@SeGaSaTuRn1994 I really couldn't give a shit. Games are meant to be played. End of. You can polish your sealed game collection whilst I play my games. Your just annoyed I bought it for £1 and then opened it. Grow up.
@tyzwain JESUS! 1ero! how much n america 1dollar! dude u r LUCKY! that was awesome! I WISH! u had ANOTHER copy SILD! if i was n the 90s man! if i had a time machine delorean! i would go back! get 2 COPYS of each GAME! 1 to play! 1 to collect!!! LOL sry about u unsealing it bro! i kinda wish u didnt! but i understand the moeny it cost to even get a brand new one off of ebay or wat ever
That's awesome! Looks like you've been saving that thing for quite a long time! Great game! One of my personal old-school favorites from back in the day!
Unbelievable...one of the best games of all time still sealed to the max!! I would never have opened it...especially since you have the US version. Do you own a Famicom being in the UK?
Unlikely, I've looked up a few other sealed ones and they look the same.
Also as for the knife, I didnt want to crease the box, hence a craft knife to break the seal. The game was new, as I show in the video - so it cant be fake.
@tyzwain I bet! On the plus side too, Starwing doesnt work too well in 60hz, so to get the proper experience you'll need this or the Japanese one anyways.
Awesome! The posters were never the same as the game in the box. They packed posters of upcoming games to advertise. Great un boxing. Not sure what #34 is but mine has #11.
the only way i found to open such boxes without creasing the flap is to get a knife and insert in the little slice on each end and flex the edges up so they dont catch on the inner tabs then once open shave off a milimetre or so off each tab so it doesn't catch in future and voila, yea its a bit extra after all but if ur into keeping boxes fresh like me then its the only way :D
That's a really valid point made in this video, why we collect these memories in VideoGame form. As for me personally i would've just got some cheap alternative copy to play, off ebay or something & kept it sealed.But i must admit even when i was 15 back in '93, of all the importers i bought games off, hardly any of them came sealed to be honest, i guess some dealers use to unwrap them for display etc.And really that's the whole point of our hobby is'nt it...to play & re-live the memories.
Lol exactly! Thats what I wanted people to feel. I've never had a brand new SNES game, so the experience of opening it was worth more to me than whatever I could have sold it for on eBay.
The game has no real financial value to me. Its a £2 game because thats what I bought it for. I wasnt going to sell it...so made sense to open it lol.
Thanks Barry, yeah its the issue of whether people care about the game or its value. I mean if its worth a lot financially and you dont like it, sell it! Dont keep it on a shelf just for display. I like Star Fox, and so I decided to open it. :)
funnily enough I found a sealed Gameboy cartridge in my local CEX it was Super Marioland 2 (6 Golden Coins) the other day in town. They wanted £25 for it !!! I didn't have the cash on me at the time to make a smaller offer lol.
I was cringing when you opened the flap at the end mate- dont think I could cope with trying to collect MINT SNES games. Those boxes are just so fragile!
I would have bought a loose cart and kept it sealed ;-)
Still, its pretty cool that you were the first person to open it in all those years :)
Yeah the boxes are extremely fragile, but its been bashed around a bit anyway. If I was collecting SNES games I'd have kept it that way, but I'd rather play it :)
Btw Ty, was it made in japan or assembled in mexico? i can't see on the vid but it looks like it was made in japan as the writing on the cart looks about the right size for the word japan :)
Can't believe you did it ty lol btw i forgot to tell you the other day that i checked my starfox when you asked about the poster and mine has the same poster as yours with the super scope one side and zelda on the other :)
Very nice. I opened up a brand new GameCube game the other day but I didnt film it. I should of ha ha!
Do US games not have the Nintendo seal going around the box then? You know the shirk wrap seal that you pull the little tab and it unwraps? Cheers for sharing ;o)
EPIC unboxing!.. I know how it feels, but heck, when you wanna play the game badly.. you'd go that far :P Incredible man.. 17 years untouched by human hands! I also have the same problem opening FC boxes, especially ones from Konami. You just can't get it open w/o damaging the flap :( I have since found one solution, but it still doesn't work quite well. Great vid man!! I hope you are enjoying StarFox now!! It's a killer game :)
Lol you love it! Its like in Zelda where theres 2 chests, open one and you get 20 rupees, open the one next to it and you get a whole heart piece! But both have that dramatic music.
Balls of steel, ty! lol Hope a sealed copy doesn't turn out to be worth 10 grand this time next year lol
Nice to see the inside of it and being the nostalgic fella I am i'd have loved the feeling of being the first person to see that stuff for almost 20 years!
as a collector i cringe at the thought of opening a sealed cartridge based game, i would have just bought a loose copy for play. i guess you still have a mint cib copy as well as a new game to play, great find.
Man you're insane! I would of left it sealed and just bought a loose cart! My games i have sealed now will probably stay like that cos i'll never play them as much as i would like.
theres a guy selling a sealed copy of this in my local retro store , i've thought about buying it but then all i would do is open it so i just bought the much cheaper non sealed version instead.
Takes me back to when i was young and all my local game shop had was snes and megadrive games and under. It was so cool in between the years 1996-99 , just full of nintendo and sega at their peak and when a official Megadrive station was setup in store to mess around on with golden axe running on it
Cheers Joe, it seems I've hit a nerve here. Some saying I should have left it sealed, others saying I've done it right. Glad to see people enjoy it anyway lol.
its worth £80.00
