"This edition is quite complete, with stickers and a full -color manual as in the old days, currently sought among Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 collectors, being able to be seen by relatively high values in online auction portals," Fabre added.

¿Cuánto cuesta en Uruguay?La mano de obra está acá, pero el juego se produce afuera. El juego está en eBay a unos US$ 60 en versión simple y US$ 90 en versión con la banda sonora. El envío a Uruguay puede costar US$ 30 y, con los impuestos, puede aumentar a 60% del valor del producto. Por lo tanto, comprar el juego desde Uruguay podría estar entre los US$ 130 y US$ 160.
