I saw one around the first of the year. You have to keep looking. eBay has different listings all the time as does Amazon. Three weeks seems long enough to search for any game but it's basically hit and miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouisvilleLipp Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Another problem is finding support for this game. There are very few modders here that devote their time for MLB2K12. Nobody does rosters, stadiums, maybe a few jerseys or CF's. MVP gets the most support of any game on this site, and it's just as old or older.

Dirtdog Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 I acquired an app that combs thru and checks 453 different cities and/or metro areas of the United States of the above aforementioned websites, classified ads, internet or social media posts for these keywords: MLB 2k12 PC One week not a single listing. I would say it’s close to impossible to find! I am not used to not being able to acquire something I want. So did I mention I am buying? Message me if you are sick of the game, moving on to something else or taking a break from gaming entirely. You would be surprised just how much I am paying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirtdog Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Thanks for the replies, Just not how I do business I don't want to start a firestorm or raise the market value for other people's future purchases. I will let people reach out to me first, hopefully they will? I plan to buy more than one. Or else I will just have to keep searching, Yankee4Life, Have you purchased a home in the past couple of years? NFT or a one of a kind sports card or other memorabilia? Maybe even a new dream car since the chip shortage started? I don't think I am special, its the way of the world now in 2022. I just know that if I want something I am going to overpay for it and get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbowkett1978 Posted March 12, 2022 Author Share Posted March 12, 2022 Biggest issue that I have found is that even if you do find a copy of MLB2K12, it's very rare that the serial key is still usable. I believe there's a limit to have many times a serial key can be used (someone correct me if I'm wrong). Back in the day, you could request a new key using SecureRom and by contacting 2K but with Windows 10 and now 11, SecureRom is no longer an option and 2K no longer care about a game that's a decade old. Trust me, I have asked as I have a "locked" copy of the game Thankfully, it's my back up copy in case my original disk stops running. Happy hunting....but be aware of what I wrote if you do find a copy online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just don't want people to get their hopes up, spend good money on a copy and then be met with disappointment when the game cannot be played. Copies can occasionally be found but ask questions prior to buying and hope the seller is being honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ritchie Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 @mbowkett1978: And you were able to get it to run? If so, lucky you! Time to buy a lottery ticket it's being shipped to me now. should have it by early next week. I will find out it I can install and run it. I also have mlb2k11 which I have running on windows 11. don't see why k12 won't run on win11 also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtdog Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Then you are good. Because i am yet to see one listed. What day was this? Because i didn't see it. I have the alert on as well Hope it works for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritchie Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 This past Tuesday. I just happened to check eBay. Ran game requirements on my gaming laptop and desktop and shows it will run. Have run MLB 2k11 on both so this game should run as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritchie Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 @mbowkett1978 isn't the key for use on-line because with Mlb2k11 I was able to install on both my desktop and gaming laptop, both WIN11 and did NOT have to enter the serial key for either and am able to play franchise mode or my player.

mbowkett1978 Posted February 22, 2023 Author Share Posted February 22, 2023 If anyone is looking for a copy of MLB2K12 for PC, there's a copy for sale on Ebay as we speak https://www.ebay.com/itm/334755770195?hash=item4df0ffaf53:g:0tYAAOSwO5hj8tF3&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAoEbmB19tWzdXTEnKSySs043gP7%2F6HJ8lKkcZ%2BeObO1Hg5wrNf%2Betia5B%2FsTyFPI7jn6aueRXrpmO5dGQgwEgOznrxV9wRtQZn8%2BeBjjcby3AoH%2F6u2de8Uln4TkprDrHRby2%2FqyZNNNPSha%2Ba0N9TrdWe4BUfS7Zgtufkd2IDIeLeRveCRxv6aiNwK%2BHqZDQKrqS%2Fju91qlrx9XRmDbnFQA%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR7qt3ubOYQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yankee4Life Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Expensive, but someone will buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyBall305 Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 It says used, but in very good condition. I think i read you can get duped? Something to do with the game key being already used? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
