Dragon Quest V has fallen a long way. In March we wrote about Dragon Quest V being a really expensive Nintendo DS game selling for $55-60 used. In late April it was reprinted and available at most stores for $39.99. Now Amazon has it for sale for $19.99 brand new. In three months DQV went from $60 to $20. A great example of the risks in buying rare video games for collecting, one reprint and the price drops 66%.
The price is part of a big sale Amazon is having on a bunch of different RPG's and other genres. Some of the other great deals are:
Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together for PSP: $39.99 $25.99
Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy for PSP: $29.99 $17.99
Professor Layton and Curious Village for DS: $29.99 $14.99
Kingdom Hearts Re:coded for DS: $34.99 $19.99
Final Fantasy 4 Heroes of Light for DS: $24.99 $14.99
Madden 2011 for PSP: $39.99 $19.99

Halo 3 ODST Decreased in Value Before May 3
May 3rd has come and gone, the Halo Reach Beta has launched (which we've played extensively), and Halo 3 ODST has decided not to increase in value. That's right, our prediction about Halo 3 ODST was incorrect.
Back in February we made a prediction that Halo 3 ODST would increase in value leading up to the Halo Reach Beta because people would want to try it out, and owning ODST was the easiest way to get in the Beta. As it turns out, everyone interested in the Beta must have already purchased ODST back when it released in 2009.
As you can see here ODST now holds a value of $28. It was $31 back in February. That's a decrease of $3. So there you have it.
As for the Halo Reach Beta, if you have any specific questions about it, please post them in the comments below. I will do my best to answer any questions you guys may have.
