      Decent haul--made back about twice of what you spent--and it's interesting to see that even bad games can command a small if fair price online, assuming buyers include non-collectors. Recently, at a consignment flea market, I bought a sealed "Saints Row IV" on PC for $8 or $10. I've heard good things about that one. Sufficed to say, what you purchased might be of use to the AVGN.

      I love bad games. I just bought the Tingle Trilogy and Too Much Tingle 🤪

    The trick is to find buyers for those games.
    The rumble pack for the DS was a good score, though.

      I had no idea that they made a rumble back for the DS until just yesterday I saw Scott the Woz reviewing it. Weird how these things come together sometimes.

    You really struck out on this boxset. A ton of Barbie games.
    But the Japanese Yu-Gi-Oh games? That's actually pretty cool.

    $227 after individually photoing, typing out description and pricing, waiting for all 40 ish to sell and then shipping them out maybe lmao.
    A usedgame store would only take like half the games out of this and then they give you like $18. In store credit or $14 cash

    That Banpresto anime fighting game is: Zatch Bell! Electric Arena. Japanese name is: Konjiki no Gash Bell!! Unare! Yuujou no Zakeru

    I imagined babyz. They were zmelly.
    I'm imagining one might sell these as bundles, less work, and there's some, theme to them, Lizzie games, Barbie, etc...

    I think I might've played more World Series Baseball on Game Gear as a kid than possibly anyone else in the world, and if I got a working version of that, I'd consider this a score.

    Price charting is an okay quick guide, but tends to be off the mark imo.

    There were some gems in there and what's not worth selling at cons you could stick in a $1 game box. Also potential for replacement parts on broken carts.

    The DS rumble pack is actually pretty expensive. And if that anime game might be interesting as it's source material is pretty amusing.

  • @da69one23
    @da69one23 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love that you spelled it out with sign language. Seems like it stayed true to its name though. Only a few decent games. But all for fun, I guess not too too bad.....

  • @PabstOban
    @PabstOban ปีที่แล้ว

    Its almost like there was a company that bought the inventory of dozens of "gone out of business" mom-n-pop stores AFTER they sold everything of ANY interest at fire sale prices.... and this is the dross that is left over.
    This box of games is only good for one thing... a land fill. Looking at the caliber of games you could receive in a box like this... your chances of getting anything that is worth your time is like winning the power ball.
    This was just some companies creative way of getting rid of electronic waste without having to PAY to dispose of it.

    @danbroughton4954 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think the pricecharting price takes into account that it costs around $4 to ship an item first class. These games are worth under $1 when you factor that in.

    I think this illustrates why I don't trust price charting. There is so much shovelware crap in here that almost never sells. And I would think would be giveaway worthless. But yet price charting found that much value in that pile of poo. I guess it makes a fun video if nothing else.
