  • It's been a little while since I did an update on GameCube games, but I did some shopping over Black Friday weekend after GameStop put all of their used games on sale which included their retro games.

    I love when you do videos like this! I dove into really snatching up gba games about 4 years ago and on GS website of all places when they started accepting retro again. Between my membership and the CAG16 discount code I ended up getting most of the highly sought after games like Boktai and Dbz gems since I have an eye for quality gems. If you can do away with boxes on stuff like gba collecting its not all that bad. Today I'm on a ds kick and FB Marketplace seems to be the bread and butter.

      Wrong. You did proof that you have no idea about SNES. This Cartridge is offical. There's even a PAL Bundle that came with that cartridge(called "Super Mario 5 Stars Pack"). So it's Mario Allstars + Word and in this Version, Nintendo actually changed some sprites. Luigi looks actually like Luigi and not a green Mario. Yoshi has his Arms collored green instead of the strange orange ones. ect.

    Speaking of Gamecube deals, I found RE: Zero for a pretty low price and I was extremely excited to pick it up. Can’t wait for some prices to drop, unless we all get stingy after this year.

    I had Extreme G for PS2. I remember it having a Wipeout style soundtrack, and crazy levels.

    I have a pretty good amount of game cube games but I wish I had invested heavily in them as they are a really good investment now. Also it is funny/sad how SNES and GBA games are so commonly bootlegged now.
    They used to be pretty easy to spot and they still mostly are but a few of the forgeries are really good. I miss the days when this kind of stuff wasn’t so common.
