--- Quote from: oldgamerz on February 20, 2021, 05:32:29 pm ---In fact GameStop must have loved the Nintendo GameCube since they even had their own self branded GameCube controller. I in their stores as a cheaper alternative to the official GameCube controller. The GameStop brand GameCube Controllers from this era were bigger then the official GameCube Controllers and used to be quality products sold new. --- End quote --- GameStop did this with every console from the era. It's nothing special. On the topic - I just got a copy of Super Mario Strikers for $7 which is an incredible deal, since it is usually $30 for just the disc. But that's what you are generally going to be looking at for the majority of the first party GCN games. You might find some decent 3rd party / cross-platform deals for the GCN, but I've found it pretty rare. |

I am so out of touch when it comes to retro game prices anymore lol. All I know is everything older than Gen 7 is pretty much a good 30% or more of what it was just a couple years ago. I belong to a few Facebook gaming groups or gaming Buy/Sell/Trade groups. I see people posting games like Chronicles of Narnia or Spongebob for the Gamecube and thinking they're out of their minds with how much they're asking. I then look up completed listings and my jaw drops to find out how much shovelware GC titles like those have gone up. And don't even get me started on the more sought after games like Luigi's Mansion, Melee, or F-Zero. At this point I feel like $15 is probably the entry point for any GC title lol |

so spongebob battle for bikini bottom ain't shovelware it's apparently a cult classic. it was so popular that people where pretty hyped when the game got released again on current gen hardware with hydrated. If where talking actual shovelware 5$ or less is doable. 15$ is if your really impatient but there are far more sellers than buyers for shovelware even on cube |

It's nice GC games can still be had below $5. I figured all the annual roster update EA sports titles were probably under $10 (save NCAA Basketball 2003 or whatever it was). I guess i'm just happy I don't have to worry about stuff like this anymore since I'm more or less done with collecting for the GC. |

Geez. I just checked how much the GameCube games I own would cost nowadays. I picked up Baten Kaitos Origins at a random game store not too long ago for 12 bucks and now it's...not that. |
