Classic Video Game Sells for $1,217

04 Feb, 2008, 2:00 pm IST | by Nikhil Singh |

Most of you have probably heard of vintage comic books or posters selling for huge amounts of money, but here’s a new one. A sealed copy of Chrono Trigger – the legendary console RPG released for the Super Nintendo in 1995 – sold for a whopping USD $1,217 on eBay!

I’m sure that there’ll come a day when copies of classic video games sell for insane sums. I suggest that the next time you think a game’s close to perfect, pick up a copy and put it away. Who knows, someday your grandchildren could make millions, thanks to you!
