I am interested but only if it was complete for now.

I passed on a SEALED one for around 600 once.

Its hella rare but even complete ones only end in the 400-500 range at best.

Newbie here...I didnt realize Netlink is still usable. I've had a Saturn stored in my home for a while w Netlink. Not knowing it is still usable, I gave the Netlink away to charity a few months ago. I only found this site after posting on Craigslist to sell the Saturn for $35 with Dragon Force, Nights, and 6 other games. Luckily someone messaged me that I have it priced too low. Anyways, are Netlinks hard to find?

No. They are very easy to find, even brand new in the box.

You can get one for something near 25-30 USD.

If you don't care about packaging and stuff you can probably get one for 10 USD.

Actually the hard part is the availability of a telephone landline. Do you have one?
It's usually not a norm for those who moved recently...

Yeah. People get excited at the end of the auction.

Another two that finished recently:

A canceled auction, with no bids:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Daytona-USA-Cha ... _26wt_1075

And a rather dubious one:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Daytona-USA-Cha ... 706wt_1075
Is it factory sealed? How to tell if it's the NetLink Edition?
Wasn't the NetLink Edition factory sealed with the black and white cover in the front?
Really weird.

I emailed the seller of the sealed one asking the same thing! He said he was mis-informed, it was not the netlink edition, and he was trying to cancel the auction.

Another one Daytona USA CCE NetLink Edition:

I hope this one is not a fake. It's from the same State of the dubious "sealed" above.

The prices raised a bit in the last years.

A boxed complete one is around 60 USD.

Here's a better auction at 30 USD with 39 sold!
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sega-Saturn-Net ... _759wt_922
It's being watched by 51 users!
Nice one to grab if you don't have one yet.

Not to promote piracy for everything, but why not just burn a CD of Daytona only? Paying $XXX-XXXX is ridiculous IMHO. Pirating $X-XX games is also ridiculous, just buy them. I just personally think it should be ok to try a super old game that's way overpriced at least once without killing your bank account. None of the money goes to the devs anyway, just to some snob who sells it that high.
I have all of the Netlink games.

Well, some people do it. I don't like it (pirating) so I don't do it.

Also, I don't want to mod a Saturn or try the swap trick at all...

And, honestly, I don't like Daytona CCE. If the NetLink version was the first Daytona USA, I would try harder to obtain it, but Daytona CCE is not that good, imo. This one is really for collecting and, if it is for collecting, there's no sense in pirating it.

There's a better racing game for NetLink and that's Sega Rally. ^^
