GC & PS2 games are going up. I haven't really noticed the original Xbox games going up, either that or the ones I'm interested in are the ones no one else wants. :P

Take a look at KoToR 2 and Conker.  They've both gone up receintly

Come to CA, guys! PS2/Xbox/GameCube games are still about $5 a piece over here.

Either an effect of the pot simmering over with enthusiasm for game collecting, or the fact that GC was far more obscure than PS2 or Xbox. Maybe a bit of both. GC proves to be almost as hard to find in the wild as Dreamcast. I'm shocked that Xbox remains as cheap and unloved as it still is. GC is going up, PS2 is on a steady rise, but I think Xbox is about the same as it was 5 years ago.

Earlier this year I checked everything on VGPC, the only consoles that hadn't seen a large increased average since 2009 was basically everything Sega (- SMS), and XBox. PS1 had actually gone down. Everything else has gone way up. SNES tripled I think.

Nowadays it doesn't surprise me to hear about anything becoming valuable. Especially if it's a game I never bothered to pick up.  ;D There are in fact valuable Wii games already, standard release ones. Wii prices are set to go way up in the near future, I'm almost certain.

What are the last NES games you are after? I'm guessing all the cheap ones are out of the way.

I've still got some commons to go.  I do have the 2 big heavy hitters (Flintstones 2 and Little Samson) left.  It's not going to be easy, that's for sure.

I really think that collecting in general is what's driving the price up.  Folks aren't just collecting NES or SNES like they did 5 years ago.  People are collecting games. Period.  There are even some Wii games that are labeled "Rare" and prices are going up.
