- The Nintendo GameCube currently sits as one of the most expensive consoles to collect for. Due to my undying hatred for my wallet, I have decided to take the plunge and buy some minty complete-in-box GameCube games.

As somebody who lives on Long Island I can tell you we want top dollar for everything. It’s crazy how expensive some of the games got
Would you say they're more expensive than the rest of the USA? I've been trying to wrap my head around some of these prices but they're all triple of what they go for around here 😂
im from Long Island too!
What annoys me even more about inflated prices at conventions or anything in-person is that the ebay price usually includes conveniences and guarantees. Like delivery and money-back if there's something wrong. You don't get those things when buying in-person. You had to go there. You had to assume all risk. If anything, in-person prices should be cheaper!
You did the right thing, haggling them down. I bet they were just happy to get the ebay prices. As much as I love the brick and mortar style stores, I had to cut back on visits because they were going over online prices and refusing to budge. Anytime I go these days, it's more for the experience. Almost all of them upcharge 10% or more on their games. :/
Yeah the thing about ebay and what not is there bid sites meaning over half the time if they go over market value thats all on the bidder for not doing research before placing the bid the convention how ever is no different then a store its a set price and the seller is fully aware of what there doing so yeah no excuse for the inflated prices when the seller is the reason there inflated 🤷 its got so bad with bid sites they have had to put a disclaimer all sales are final when you click bid you are honoring that price I once seen someone go $1000s over market value then cry about how they didnt know about it before they placed there bid like thats not the sellers fault pay attention to what your paying for i always do research on what im bidding on and when it goes over what its worth i drop out but its amazing how many people dont think about that before they place there bid 🤦
@@Assassin-ys5vw I constantly see eBay auctions with bids way above market average, with time still left for more bids to be made. It blows my mind.
@@MackLee23 yeah thats what ebay buyers mess up with wait till last few seconds doing it before just makes competition to garentee best price its better to wait last 2nd know how much your willing to spend and then just let the best offer win if its an over bid then you basically just dodged a bullet because at that point its not worth it
@@MackLee23 I once seen a bid go up to the $1000s and thought geez ya all need to chill the game is only worth like $50 the seller was happy though since all bids are final 😂 buyers need to keep that in mind when it comes to bids thats on you to keep the price you offer its a commitment backing out will never end well because ebay does have rules and policeys 🤷 it just cracks me up how some people will cry about it when they are the entire reason it went that high like geez 🤦
You can haggle down prices at retro video game stores?
I was the Gamecuber (Gamecubist?) when everyone else had a PS2 or Xbox. It was thrilling playing the very first Animal Crossing, especially when there was no meta for it - people were discovering it as they played. A very magical time in gaming history.
I remember that, and I remember how mind blown I was as a 5 year old seeing all the other Nintendo Game Trophy's in game, and then when you paid off your house and got the statue, such a great time to experience gaming
Matty you’re officially my favorite gaming TH-camr. You always keep it real and don’t make videos for the sake of just making them. More importantly you’re not just a game hoarder. You actually play and beat your games unlike (most) people on here. I say most because there are a handful like you. Cheers and keep the content pumping 👍
Great video! Gamecube collecting never gets old just expensive over the years! Subbed because I love the Gamecube! I'm still upgrading my cube collection even after 7 years of collecting.
I LOVED the GameCube as a child but I didn’t have many games for it. The last two years I have been growing my collection and today I have 50 GameCube games! ❤ Some rare and some common. 😊
GameCube was actually my first console I owned when I was 5.
Where my Mario Kart Double Dash fans at?
A few weeks ago I decided to start making retro content as I rebuild the collection I had to sell off a few years ago. I thought forever about a name for YT and social media and settled on Retro Rebound. Before changing all my social media names to that, I googled it just to make sure I wasn’t ripping anyone off and ended up finding your channel which I now love. Lol. I settled on a different name obviously and found another cool channel to watch out of it. Keep up the good work!
I still lovingly have my Pokemon Colloseum and XD Gale of Darkness on my collectors shelf. I'll never sell off my old Gamecube collection. Especially knowing a lot of the games are ones that collectors want now.
I am so happy to see that your a huge fan of Night For 100 Frights cause it was my first video game I ever played on the PS2, I hope THQNordic remasters it!
How about a video of the metal gear solid games? Love the channel and videos
YES DO IT MATTY
The first Luigi’s Mansion was the literal first game I’ve ever played & finished. It’s actually lowkey scary when played in the dark… kinda like the Mario version of Resident Evil. It’s a shame the horror tone didn’t really translate to the sequels.
Also unlike most games today, it’s a short experience! Seriously you could easily beat lugi’s spoophouse in 1 sitting if you really wanted to… which kinda makes it better as a horror experience? At least to me it does
That’s CRAZY! I still have my copy of Pokémon Colosseum as well. I won’t sell it because how much I love it, but crazy to see it selling for so much.
Matty, your videos rock! You frequently put out high quality content, and your passion for these games brings me back to my childhood memories
I like how he’ll read the back of the cases and flip through the manual. It’s what I do too. All of that is part of the collecting and gaming experience.
I’ve never seen anyone talk about Falsebound Kingdom! I played that game so much as a kid, I remember being terrible at it so I was constantly starting new games. But man it’s so nostalgic
Your Pokemon Colosseum pick up is crazy, I Bought mine from some random 2nd store for $30 bucks. Complete in box, also in pristine condition. This store didn't know the value of what they had; I got super lucky to randomly find this.
I remember being scared as a kid by the baddies in Star Fox Adventure. Hope you enjoy your pick-ups, Matty! ❤
i been collecting mostly sega saturn / dreamcast and gamecube games this year so far ! dope vid 🔥
I needed this video!
You are in for a treat with Falsebound Kingdom. I got it as a kid as a Christmas gift and it blew my mind!! It is unique but very fun. And I'm happy to see another clash of ninja 2 fan out here. CLASSIC
Awesome vid! I just picked up some GC games in yardsales today for $1.
Colosseum is so sick Matty you should love it bro!!! :)
2 GameCube games I’m saving up for now is F-Zero GX and Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door
Keep it up Matty!
Been picking up a lot of GameCube games this year. Just recently found my missing game boy start up disc so I’m super happy about that seeing the price of those now.
I LOVED StarFox Adventures when I was younger and I still think its an awesome game. Still have my original copy, GameCube, and memory card. Would LOVE to see you do a review on it.
I don’t care what anyone says. I love starfox adventures and will play it time and time again
What a vid. I just started doing this again myself last week.
Last game cube game I picked up was Skies of Arcadia. It also hurt the wallet but at least it was well taken care of and I'm excited to try it.
I remember buying Megaman Network Transmission hoping it was similar to Legends/64 and was soooo upset when it was not. Blind buying as a dumb kid back in the day was risssky. Great video Matty!
Just got a modded GameCube and now I can experience a lot of games that were priced out of my reach. Great video, just added the Naruto clash of ninja 2 to my micro SD card, what a fantastic game. Keep up the good work.
This channel brings me back. I wish I kept all my old games. All of which would have been in perfect condition. :(
I just played colosseum and XD recently… love those games. I caught every single shadow Pokémon in both games. The ho oh, and all 3 starters from mount battle, and i just put them on my switch on Pokémon home. Those shadow Pokémon are so cool, needs to be remade or brought back with another trip back to the orre region!!
Star for adventures was my first game cube game and I was looking forward to playing it and I gotta say. I had a great time, I loved it.
Hell yeah, glad I'm not the only one who had a sudden hankering for picking up Gamecube games this month. Don't know what it is, but found myself picking up some movie licensed based 3D platformers on it and they're just satisfying to play on the Gamecube as opposed to the Xbox. There is a lot of gold here like Turok, Crystal Chronicles, RE4, Starfox Adventures! The Scooby Doo games for the 6th gen were pretty well done, Unmasked had a great recreation of the classic intro with game assets! Great video Matty, just discovered the channel recently and I love the content!
That's so funny, Matty! I was just shopping for a Gamecube HDMI solution today. I'm thinking either the Eon or the Retro Bit Prism. I brought out my Gamecube after many many years and found all of my games. Well, except for one: I'm still looking for Star Fox Adventures. I have no idea where I put it, but I know I have it. And in good condition, too. It's the Player's Choice version, but apparently that's worth a bit of money.
Definitely play Turok Evolution! Fun game imo, love the weapon selection and dinosaurs. Used to play split screen with my friends all the time.
Can’t believe you never played Luigi’s mansion. Hope you enjoy it, my biggest childhood game.
Great timing for a video lol I just picked up custom robo and paper Mario CIB from eBay. PayPal pay in 4 is a HELL of a drug lol
I'm here for the gamecube content👍🏽👍🏽
Network Transmission is also amazing
love the pickups, as someone who just stared collecting gamecube gotta love the black label CIB's, looking to get my hands on YoYoHyper Drive but not willing to dish out 400$+ for it =(, dope video and looking forward to more gamecube content
Disney Extreme Skate Adventure is an OG!!!! What a killer game, awesome soundtrack as well. Just played my copy a few weeks ago after maybe 15 years of not touching it, and I found a create a character I made that was my 4th grade crush at the time still on the memory card. What a trip!
I went through a phase where I was buying GameCube games a few years back...I wish I bought a few more back then since they are so much more expensive now
I rebought the Gamecube in April of this year, I've already got 27 games for it. Most of those games were fairly cheap, the 2 expensive ones I got are Metal Gear Solid - The Twin Snakes, and Eternal Darkness. I've not bought any of the Mario or Zelda games for it yet, though
.
Gonna subscribe to the channel, I really enjoy looking back at classic games.
Also, I live on Long island, idk about you but the market out here has gotten terrible. Unfortunately I missed the expo this year, but honestly I feel like I didn't miss out on much (as far as collecting goes). I haven't found a reasonable deal on anything out here in at least 2 years. Such a shame, because I really enjoyed making a day of going to the local game shops. Not so much anymore.
Glad that you like Star Fox Adventures!
In the last few years, the reviews have shifted and people are finally appreciating this fantastic game!
I've just started getting in to gamecube games, picked up pokemon gale of darkness and star wars rebel strike as my first 2 games. Managed to get gale of darkness for £70 which is really cheap in the UK. Can't wait to play them both!
Luigi’s Mansion is genuinely my favourite game of all time. You’ll absolutely love it Matty, so different from 2 and 3
I was their on that sat had a blast
Been waiting for my GCHD since July !!!
Yea I’m selling my GameCube games in 2022. Fact is their value has simply outgrown my desire to keep them and if there are clowns out there willing to pay $80 for my copy of Alien Hominid or Beyond Good and Evil… then so be it! Planning to only keep my Resident Evil collection on GC since I’ll actually still play them from time to time.
The eon hdmi adapter is awesome for the gamecube!
The super 64 adapter wasn’t quite so good so got myself another crt tv for that.
Matty, I LOVE Yu Gi Oh Falsebound Kingdom. I break it out and play it almost once every year.
A notification for your videos brings me joy
So does walking in on your dad in the shower
@@willissudweeks1050 He’s a pretty fit guy, so I can imagine it would be 😂
My launch GameCube is still hooked up. Star Fox Adventures is 20 years old now so I've been playing it. It's still a fun game to play.
I never played that Yugioh game but always wanted to, one day... My back catalog is HUGE!
Another thing to note about the gamecube version of resident evil 4 is that is still the hardest version of the game.
When it was ported to PS2 the amount of ammo and health drops were increased, and every version of the game since is based on that PS2/Wii version.
It should also be noted that we didn’t get a proper port of RE4 until the 2014 Ultimate Edition remaster. Everything else aside from the Wii version was based on the PS2 version, which that in itself was a butchered port.
@@bronzin1445 Is that the one sold on PS4 & XB1 currently?
@@MSUHitman The Ultimate Edition? yes
Damn, not only an NY TH-camr (as assumed from the Rangers stuff lol), but only Long Islander like Jake, sick stuff. Also yh, the Cradle of Aviation loves to have events or expos even though it's also just a museum too. As someone who had gone to Halloween fright stuff and some other general events growing up, was crazy seeing it represented rn ngl
I subscribe to your channel bro keep up the good work
I’ve been buying DS games again this year and it’s absolutely brutal, on the upside it’s nice to see all the games I grew up with on sale.
Now and then you can find the occasional deal but you have too expect to pay top dollar
Ha ha me too. It's my most favorite game system of all time
Boo Brothers is my favorite Scooby Doo movie. Great atmosphere, fun mystery and characters, the southern characters having such goofy voices ya love to see it.
11:35 He’s lucky Shaggy didn’t notice him or he would’ve been wiped out of existence.
Omg Pokemon Colosseum was my JAM. Totally forgot about this game
Wow I’m not a GameCube collector at all and i only have 6 games but i guess I’m grateful i kept all my childhood games apparently i have some money sitting there. $150 for Colosseum is insane i never would have guessed that, i even kept my Jirachi bonus disc i wonder if that would increase the value too making it even more “complete in box” or w/e
Edit: WOW and Pokémon XD is $200+ lmao I’m gonna list my 6 childhood games if anyone wants to comment the estimated value.
- Colosseum
- XD Gale of Darkness
- Animal Crossing
- Wind Waker
- Twilight Princess
- Mario Sunshine
Oh i just found 2 more disc only tho
- Paper Mario 1000 year door
- DBZ Sagas
Ac is about $30
Windwaker about $50
Twilight is about $100
Sunshine is about $30
Wish u wanted to sell lol
@@ep3578 okay they’re not all as crazy, Twilight Princess is tho… wow. Yeah I’m not a collector but the reason i still have these games is sentimental, kept them since i was a kid so no I’m not looking to sell them sorry!
I wouldn't pay any more than $20 apiece for those games. Especailly considering how most of them have been remade on the Wii U and/or Switch. Pokemon XD and Colosseum were cool back in the day, but the Switch versions of Pokemon games do it a lot better.
@GoingOnToday here in the northeast, i see it go for 50-60 consistently at local game stores and fb marketplace 🤷🏼
scooby doo! naruto! going to a swap tomorrow and your making me realize i need to bring more money, damn you (awesome video! keep em coming)
Loves Sly Cooper, loves Dragon Ball, loves Scooby Doo. Are you my long lost brother?
I had a good pick up at a local thrift store, picked up Paper Mario thousand year door, double dash, resident evil 4 and Sonic mega collection all for $27. I couldn't believe it all complete in box too.
I bought all my Gamecube games between 2008-2012 when prices were sane. Baten Kaitos 1 & 2, Eternal Darkness and Skies of Arcadia - $40-50 each..
One of my favorite scenes from scooby-doo meets the boo brothers was the scene where I believe the blue hat boo brother hides in the grandfather clock
Perfect video to watch after I FINALLY set up GameCube emulation on my Chromebook😊
We have a retro game store right next to GameStop called disk replay and they have every used console and thousands of old and newer games. They also buy tvs ipods random controllers and cords they ha a ton of games and consoles even got my gaming monitor from there got my $400 monitor for $150 because they just got it in and didn't have a price yet. It's a great place
matty, please set up some display shelves with your game collection behind you for retro rebound 🙏
I've started getting cube games recently as well.Ebay is my go to
I had A MASSIVE CRUSH on the Hex Girls
Have you got Paper Mario TTYD? I’ll forgive you for dragging your heels to play Like a Dragon if I could get your impressions on the greatest Paper Mario game of all time.
It's insane how much GC game prices have gone up. I was lucky enough to pickup Pokémon Colleseum for $50 bucks about 6 years ago.
Currently playing Metroid prime on game cube and it is such a blast
Turok Evolution, from what I remember, is a cool game! It's also one of the bloodiest games the GameCube.
i bought clash of ninja 1 and 2 recently and it’s just so fun😊
Star Fox adventures holds a special place in my heart
Scooby-Doo (night of 100 frights) and NFL 2k (i think 3) are my game cube nostalgia
falsebound kingdom is one of my favourite all time yugioh games its so great
Luigi's Mansion is so much fun. You're gonna get hooked.
I got Turok Evolution for the Xbox and its a great game. I don`t know what those reviewers talking about. I hardly listen to journalist reviews anymore, i prefer reviews from the regular gamers, like from Metacritic, youtube comment sections and certain youtubers.
15:45 damn every time i hear someone say they paid 3 digits for a copy i feel blessed by pokemon gods with my copy i got from ebay back in summer of 2019 for $44. At the time i felt i over spent for a gamecube game lmfao. 📈
Commented this once, but PLEASE do a retro rebound of all the naruto games. You did it with DBZ and I’d love to see your opinion on naruto. The games are also SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper.
The Hex Girls absolutely put a spell on 9 year old me
Try Goblin Commander. Cool Lane based RTS.
I've been strongly considering buying gamecube games lately. I never had one as a kid.
I remember the Disney Skate game from a PS2 demo disc as a kid, I played it a bit just never owned it
I have noticed this trend and all I can say is I am glad many of the first party titles have yet to get re releases so most casual collectors are all soending too much going after those while I am visiting local shops and buying all the great third party titles while they are still cheap and considered low value. Such as the 5 tony hawk games on gamecube I would argue are the best 5 to own out of the entire series. Also the lord of the rings games, Pixar games, harry potter games ect. All ooze such charm and high production value.
Pokémon colosseum ❤ more TH-camrs like should play and review it may just be the thing we need to get a remake
I bought Digimon Battle Arena 2 on the GameCube a couple of years ago, that is a hard one to come by…
Bro my mom and I beat the game one night when I was 7. Great memories
I love your videos but I think you should tell people that you have have Digital port on your GameCube for the EON adaptor. It's hard to find those GameCubes.
Trying to get almost anything Nintendo, but ESP Gamecube games these days is just depressing. Would love to have Double Dash, Colosseum, Luigi's Mansion, and Smash Melee(Smash was stolen). Prob never gonna' happen for those prices. So glad I still have the Mario Partys, Windwaker, and LoZ Collectors, at least.
I bought the GameCube with luigis mansion when it came out after a year I had like 30 plus games had all the resident evil games, sonic the hedgehog games, Pokemon, Zelda, donkey Konga with bongos the wavebird controller but I sold it all to a guy from work years ago and I wish I hadn't
Sounds about right for Luigis mansion price it was a launch title for the gamecube i do believe
7:08 The Falsebound Kingdom, not King.
Hex girls we’re gonna put a spell on you! Omg I love that episode one of my favorite when I was a kid
