Chrono Trigger A Better Investment Than Apple, EA

Posted by x3sphere at March 27, 2008, 11:07 am


Forget Apple, EA, and even Microsoft. One of the best possible investments in 1995 was Square Enix’s critically acclaimed RPG Chrono Trigger. When it was first released to market, the title carried a price tag of around $70, but just recently a sealed copy of the SNES RPG fetched over $1,200 on eBay.

Based on this recent eBay auction, one fan did the math and discovered that the game, purchased on its release date, would net a higher annual rate of return than buying shares from the likes of mega-publisher EA and technology giants such as Apple and Microsoft.
