Kirby's Dream Land 3 has long been an expensive Super Nintendo game, but lately its been selling for over $1000! How did this game—which is readily available to play in the Switch's Nintendo Classics library—get so expensive? For this shorter episode, Sean, Bridget, and Gigi look back at the unique situations around the game's release, general changes in the prices of retro games, and other factors to figure out just how Kirby's Dream Land 3 became such a valuable and sought-after title.
