Luckily, I was able to get some OEM Gamecube cases, manuals and cover art. This is actually how I got my hands on Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance without paying $180 or whatever its trending at now.

    I just bought a HANSHIN Tiger’s GameCube CIB for $220. Its only missing the jersey but I saw it on your other video and it made me want to get one.

    You Canadians are so nice, in Australia they'd tell the seller that it's all only worth $50.

    Actually, the Super Monkey Ball games never were on the Dreamcast. It was released in arcades and on the Nintendo GameCube first. It was SEGA's first new IP after they went strictly software development only.

    Never sparked me as a sims fan! You must have listened to my suggestion from Mariothon 2015 when I was like 6 or 7

    I’m really glad I got into game collecting when I did. At the time I thought that $40 for Paper Mario TTYD or $30 for Mario Sunshine was expensive. Oh how little I knew of what would happen now!

    These deals simply do not exist in my area. I go on Facebook and Craigslist everyday and IF there are any GameCube games, they are priced individually and are near price chart price. The only way you can get deals here is yard sales/garage sales and even then, you’ll likely need to do “an ask” because if it’s out on the lawn, it’ll be gone before the sale has even started. But happy for you who live in areas where this stuff still happens. For me, it’s all about emulation. Screw spending hours and hours hunting and paying someone money for a game that none of the proceeds go to the game companies.

    I hear GCN has become very popular lately. Odd that I guess I was one of the few that loved the GCN when it was current 🤷‍♂️. Wish I had more games for it and an additional system

      It was IMO Nintendo's best system until the Switch, and the Switch has only just barely surpassed it. It was WAY ahead of its time. It supported full digital out in 2001, a full generation before any other systems did. Nintendo never used the digital out (and eventually removed the port on newer models), but starting in 2017, GC Video was created and fans started making HDMI adapters for the digital port. insurrectionindustries.com/product/carby-v2/ is the best of them. It lets you use the Gamecube on modern displays without resorting to hardware modification like you have to do on older systems. I wouldn't be able to use a Gamecube without this, as my A/V setup and monitor only supports HDMI and DisplayPort, no analog audio or video.

      It became popular because the previous one being N64 became stale since it’s been collected in all variations... and the GameCube is the same but better in graphics and games. (I really wanted to not reply this but I just had too LOL)

    This method is exactly how I collect vintage Masters of the Universe toys. It started two years ago when I found and bought a local listing of a guy selling a tote full of 1980s action figures for $240. Unbeknownst to him and me there were a lot of rare figures in the lot worth over $100 each. After totaling everything up I found that I had approximately $2k worth of toys and accessories. Since then I've found multiple local listings that I have been able to buy, fished out the figures I wanted to keep and sold the rest. With every lot purchased I allow my 10 year old son to pick out a figure or two to keep for his own collection and it has since turned into a secondary source of income since I don't find it necessary to keep a large collection. I'm always polite and honest when I communicate with people selling their collections and I even bring my son along on occasion because people love to see younger generations geek out over toys they used to geek out over. All it takes is one good purchase and the rest falls into place.

    I have a lot of older games that have that GameStop sticker on the top right, should I try to remove it or just leave it? Does it affect value?

    I actually own the big box version of both Mario Party 6 and 7. I got the games for Christmas in 2004 and 2005, respectively. Because of their value, I'm happy to have both in my collection. I will never get rid of them.
