I bought a complete, near mint copy of it from Japan a few years ago for $80, 
and, at that time, I had seen prices here in the U.S. pinging upwards to 
$150.  While I'm sure that you'd have to tack a bit of an increase on that 
given the three years since, but, while 1941 is a great game and good port, 
it's really not $200 "worth it."  Then again, I paid $300 for a mint copy of 
Sapphire (definitely not worth it), so perhaps I'm not one to talk.  I 
suppose my bottom line is not to always hastily jump.  Back when Aldynes was 
all the rage in collector's circles, I know a guy who paid over $200 for a 
heavily used copy of the game (scuffed up and such), I suppose thinking that 
it wouldn't come up any time soon.  Well...the next week, I was able to snag 
a complete and pretty much mint copy of it for $20 out of Japan.  I suppose 
someone would be inclined to blow their wad upon finding a game like 1941, 
but...first...I'd suggest making contact with someone in Japan and trying to 
work out something from that end.  In the long run, it will always be 
cheaper.  If you gotta have it, you gotta have it, though.
