/vr/ - Retro Games

Hey /vr/, I am looking for your help in a personal quest of mine.

When I was younger, Secret of Mana was one of my favorite games. I'd play it co-op with my little sister and brother (two at a time; I'd play the boy, she'd play the girl, and he'd play the sprite).

When I was around 11, I lent it to my cousin and the bastard sold it. I found it went I was 14 in a local games shop; I knew it was mine because my mom had written my name on the back in permanent marker and it had been crossed out.

Despite how ecstatic I was to see it, I didn't have enough money to buy it back at the time and I missed the opportunity, because the games shop shut down a few weeks later. It wasn't until the last few years that I realized how much that game truly meant to me and how symbolic it has become of a time in my childhood when my siblings and I could spend time with our parents and all get along together.

So, my request to you is if you have a Secret of Mana cartridge that you purchased second-hand or you run across one in the future, please check to see if there is a crossed out name on the back. My name is Anthony and I am willing to buy this cartridge from you.
