I searched for other results and there were loads of copies all going between the $60 to $80 range. The first two games are only commanding prices under $20. So what gives? When did BT3 suddenly become such a desired artifact?

More people consider B3 to be the best DBZ video game ever. It's usually a toss-up between the two, but B3 was released with B1 in the HD collection a couple years ago or so. However, it is rare to find an original copy of the individual game, especially with the edition with the Greatest Hits cover. There was a special edition of B3 released that included a collectible Dragon Ball and the strategy guide. My friend bought it. Haven't seen him in years, so I'm not sure if he still has it or not.

Yes, but then I wasn't really implying most people think BT3's the best as I said many.

It truly was a Shawshank redemption Posts: 12,129 Group: Retired Staff Member #2,993 Joined: December 16, 2007 Gender Male Favourite Anime DBZ What Browser do you use? Google Chrome Favourite Manga DBZ, Full Metal Alchemist	Out of interest I looked and there's one on ebay for £180 'buy it now', and £105 on Amazon. Both used though. Amazon also has BT3 for £25 used. I think I've still got my BT3 for PS2 around somewhere. Played the hell out of that game. Edited by Mitas, Dec 6 2014, 08:52 PM.

It's a pity that it didn't have very good online, I'd love to actually have a Budokai with a Budokai game.

Atari lost distribution rights for Dragon Ball games years ago so only limited copies of it exist plus Tenkaichi 3 is the commercially successful Dragon Ball game to date.
