Final Fantasy II NES Demo/Sample $50,000

Here we go again!

Final Fantasy II NES Demo/Sample $50,000

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140827892276&clk_rvr_id=377307568908

Love the comment in the description "this is the only legitimate copy of the game that exists. Any other copies you have seen of Final Fantasy II for the NES have been bootlegs, this is the real deal"

If I scratch "nobuo uematsu" into the back of my case that could potentially make it "one of a kind" and worth 50,000$

Wow. Can't believe this exists. Has the official English ROM been released? It should be.

Not sure, but I think this ROM was dumped years ago. I definitely remember seeing an NES FF2 in English at least before 2002.

I always assumed English ROMs available were fanslations, but don't know.

He's trying to sell it for $50000 with no proof, just because he says that this is the only legitimate copy of the game that exists doesn't mean it's true. Alpha sums up the situation:

Retro Collect is backing the story, but yeah, looks dodgy.

That's definitely a possibility.

It's still pretty cool.  Not $50K cool, but cool.

The questions rule:

Q: Hi
A: Hey, what's up?

You could just repro this f*ckin thing, easy peasy.

and make a label while you're at it.
