Rereleases can definetely dull a games value. Xenoblade for wii and Radiant historia for DS used to be $60+ games, but rereleases and ports have dropped their values to like 35 and 15-20.
Are there not exceptions to this? I recall people saying the Saturn version of Radiant Silvergun was going to drop because of the re-release on XBLA back in the day but it still sells for quite high. Although, I haven’t checked recently so maybe it slightly dropped.
It depends. Mostly on if the rerelease is any different from the version currently available. A downloadable rerelease on a newer system will do less/may not effect the value of a game as much as an exact reprinting of the game.
I’m frustrated right now with Castlevania SotN. I’ve had the PSN version for a while but wanted to grab a physical copy to be able to play on my CRT/ retro setup. The prices for a black label copy have been getting higher and higher lately (many ebay auctions ending north of $70) and I can’t figure out why. Bleh.
Why limit yourself to black label?
Because it is prettier 
and the disc art hasn’t been messed with.
Gotcha. Just wanted to make sure they didn’t change anything for the greatest hits version.
