I just checked to see what new games have been released on the Virtual Console in the last couple of weeks, and I saw Super Mario 3 listed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Super Mario 3 is pretty much one of my favorite Mario games to date, with Mario World a close second. one of my greatest wins on Ebay was getting Super Mario World, but I figured I would never be able to afford a copy of Mario Bros 3 off of there. So having it on the VC is great. I can finally get a copy!

Then I went on Ebay to check prices, so that I could say what the average price is. Much to my surprise, copies can be had for anywhere from about $50 (with shipping) to as low as $10 (again with shipping.) So I might just end up getting an actual copy of ti after all, and save my Wii Points for a different game. Not sure yet.

I am a little mad though. One of the sellers I found, who was selling Super Mario Bros 3 for about $25 with shipping for the game, box, sleeve, and manual, also has Final Fantasy 2 and 3 for about the same price total! I have 3 (or more accurately I have FF6 Advance for GBA) but after several years of trying to get these games, it is frustrating that when I can't afford them, they are at a price I could actually afford.
