Hey i just got my pal version of ikaruga delivered and it is completely new and sealed (so actual mint condition) i was wondering if i should leave it sealed as a collectors item or will ikaruga never be collectable??
I just need some of your opinions on what i should do, because i thought ikaruga might be considered rare but i'm not sure.
thanks in advance

Seriously, this is your first post?

ebay let's you sell anything and there's always someone who'll buy it. If you feel displaying it like packaged art is fantastic, then go for it. I still have a McFarlane Trigun in its original packaging, but I do feel the twinge for never playing with it.

I doubt I'll ever sell it either... But it does look cool in my cabinet.

That's my experience, I've never done it since and doubt I ever will again. So I say let it out and have fun.

Ikaruga is already a collector's item, especially if its the DC version you're talking about. The price should go up, assuming that its recent emergence on Xbox Live doesn't take away value from the physical copy.

That being said, I can't stand to keep games in their packaging. I have to play them.

Ikaruga is a brilliant game. Sell your copy if you wish and consider the XBLA release. I have it on the NGC and loved every minute of it.

I never go anywhere without Ikaruga on my laptop. The older I get, the more I'm enjoying these more hardcore skill games (makes sweet love to CPMA). I'd just store your actual copy somewhere safe and get it on emulator/XBLA.

hmm, i have the gamecube copy btw, also does the dreamcast require a modchip to play copied games or is the gd-rom the only form of protection sega put on the system???
