Topic: I made a BIG mistake. Help! I bought Pikmin 3 for $90!! I didn't know about reprint.

What should I do? I need some advice.

Last week I was browsing ebay and decided to buy a new copy of Pikmin 3 for $90 because I figured the price would only get exponentially higher from this point on. After a two-day Pikmin 3 session, I googled "Pikmin 3." And then that's today when I found out Nintendo is making more copies for $30. I messed up badly!!!!!!!!!!!

I am stressing out. The seller does not accept returns so that's out of the question.

What can I do? I feel so stupid.

I'm not sure if they same laws apply in your country but regardless if they don't accept returns or not they must offer a refund if it's returned tp them within 7 days because of your statutory rights.

TBH you should of just bought it off the eshop if you were worried about money.

@arronishere: I don't buy digital games if physical copies exist. The only digital games I have are Mario Party 2 and Super Smash Bros. 64 on Wii VC, Minecraft (PS3) and a bunch of PS3 games.

Just resell it or live it.

@Chandlero: Will my Pikmin 3 save file be compatible with the Nintendo Selects version of Pikmin 3? I've been playing it for two days nonstop.

@iPunch_Very_Hard: Yes..

Yeah, it's saved to the hard drive. If you've already opened the game so you've broken the seal you've got no chance of getting close to the amount of money you've paid for it now.

@arronishere: How much do you think I can get?

@iPunch_Very_Hard: 30 bucks.

It's 2nd hand now and it'll go less for a new copy which retails at 30.

I didn't find a retail copy for 30 so far.

Will the Greatest Hits version have the patches on the disc? or be the same as the original?

What if I sell it right now. Do you think someone would buy it for $60?

^Just live with it, you were happy to over pay for it in the first place when there were cheaper options and the game's doesn't get better or worse depend on the price you pay.

I agree with @arronishere, also imagine if infact the new Nintendo Selects line is a fake like some have been speculating. Then you'd need to spend another $90 to get a copy.

I would hold on to it the game is a collector item even with reprints coming out a true collector will want an original copy.

Only in NA. In Europe you find new copies of the game for 30-40 EUR without a problem.

Another classic case of buyer beware.

I purchased the Metroid prime collection on disc a few months before it was released on the eshop. No regrets really.

Not for $90 they wont.

Just deal with it. Nothing you can really do now. Just suck it up. Even if you say you sell it for 60 dollars then you buy it again for 30 you're still out 60 dollars. This is just a case of live and learn.
