good point on checking the local best buys for sales. I found a copy of bravely default II for 25$, which was cheaper than any other sale that was advertised at the time.
Fun series of videos! Idea Factory recently reprinted a bunch of their rare RPGs like Megadimension Neptunia V II and Dragon Star Varnir, and Nicalis’ stock of Switch games is starting to get sold out like Code of Princess 15th Anniversary and Tiny Barbarian. Maybe we’ll finally see some prices drop to $20 and below, because it doesn’t happen with the AAA Switch games much.
Harvestella is such a great game and yeah it will likely get rare later on. Especially if Square refuse to print any more physical copies for the NA region.
Been binge watching you and these videos and my wallets taking a hit as a result. Purchased: Ys VIII $65, Persona 5 $30, NieR: Automata $30, Astral Chain $50, Fire Emblem: Three Houses $30. Found some great deals out there!
Most of these games aren't rare but I can see games like The Diofield Chronicle and Harvestella becoming hard to find and valuable in the future. 1 game you might want to mention in a future video is Jojo's bizarre adventure All star battle R. It was on sale for $18 at GameStop but it went back up to $27 and is getting harder to find.
Great list! Diofield Chronicles is a fun game. Put in 30 hrs into it and still have plenty of gameplay left. Glad to have it physically along with the steelbook.. just beat Trinity Trigger & now enjoying TOTK. 👍
These are great suggestions, and I have the same feeling about Harvestella and Age of Calamity. Definitely keep your eyes peeled if these Are games you want to play. If youre just in it for the resell value, there are faster ways to make money than to sit on something for 20 years and make just 100$ But hey, people can do whatever they want :}

I just got Toads Treasure Tracker, Tropical Freeze, and Super Mario 3d world/browsers fury for $87 at gamestop (complete in box). GS currently has a buy two get one free deal.
Great Video, Showing that Indie Love! It's also worth noting that we are possibly in the Switch's last days (sadly) and historically the last year of a console sees reduction in the print runs. Especially with Nintendo. Might be safe to grab any titles from 2023 for the switch that you really want.
I think its more because of the extra stuff included. With Hollow Knight for example it has a manual and a map so cib copies of that will most likely get above msrp eventually. Same with other games like Stardew Valley and Undertale.
They are working on it, it going to surprise, no FE nor Zelda. More like Persona 5 Strikers. Just hang on. Pikmin Warriors defending Hyrule Kingdom by Koei Tecmo.
Hey man I just came across your channel two days ago searching for content like this. I proceeded to watch volumes 1-8 and I love this content. Super excited for today's episode. Keep up the great work.
I got the last copy of Diofield from my local BestBuy. Had to ask customer service about it because they had it listed as in stock on their website but it wasn't on the shelf. When the guy came back from storage with it he said it was like trying to find a needle in a haystack. 😅 So yeah, if it was that hard to get when it first released it will 100% be rare later. Good solid game too. Shame most people shrugged it off.
As I own 90% of all consoles old and current and I DO enjoy my Switch, the problem is with Nintendo period is they very rarely drop any prices on their physical copies of games. Especially on the major franchises: Mario, Donkey Kong, Zelda, Xenoblade, ect.
It's funny how two of the three Square Enix games that you mentioned I have. I'm a huge FF fan and I was curious about Harvestella, so I picked up both the week they came out
Rare only means limited print cause it didn’t sell well or wasn’t popular enough. Some like to say rare when that’s not the case. Especially eBay sellers saying something is rare when it’s not.
Nice list O.J.👍! I´m holding out on Captain Toud for years, I´m kind of to stupid to play those games, takes me ages to solve. Cadence of Hyrule Crypt of the NecroDancer can be bought now, that one won´t get restocked.
Ya, Switch physicals are disappearing...better listen to OJ on this one folks 👍

I played the demo, had fun playing it, however I wasn't a fan of the character creation.
100% Agreed. I had a great time with it. I'm really hoping they give it another shot so we can get a sequel with some more fleshed out features.
That game is underrated. Story and gameplay are b++.
The farming is the best thing about the game. The story was meh. They should have just done a farming RPG like the rune factory series
And how convenient it's on sale for 35 at Amazon right now 😮
OJ got me into physical for switch. Got XC2

I think the Switch is incredible and I wont’t ever give mine up, even if the successor is backward comparable.
BUY PHYSICAL!!!
I got some previous versions. But you convinced me. I pulled the trigger on Ogre Tactics Reborn

The atelier series always goes rare
With Hollow Knight I would be worried about a potential combo pack with Hollow Knight :Silksong.
Astral Chain my friend. Don’t forget it
Love these videos! Quickly becoming my favorite ones from you! Great work!
Great video! Here is a sleeper for you that is already going up Yomawari: The Long Night Collection. Look out for it, buy while you can.
Ngl I've definitely thought about getting a copy of Advance Wars for this very reason. I wasn't sure what the value of the GBA titles were...
Super Mario 3D world is on sale at target for 40 bucks
Great list! Diofield Chronicles is a fun game. Put in 30 hrs into it and still have plenty of gameplay left. Glad to have it physically along with the steelbook.. just beat Trinity Trigger & now enjoying TOTK. 👍
Great video series!! Would you be interested in doing it for the ps5 games when the time comes?
Even though I own a hybrid console, I think "the blue faction" needs some love too in this section.
These are great suggestions, and I have the same feeling about Harvestella and Age of Calamity. Definitely keep your eyes peeled if these Are games you want to play.

I'm hoping to get Hyrule Warriors age of Calamity on my Birthday tomorrow.
Happy Birthday! 🎉
@@neliros Thanks.
everytime I watch this series I spend money lol

Just buy every switch game cause they'll all be rare.
I like to collect Nintendo exclusive games, if it's on all platforms like Hollow Knight i don't think it'll be worth a lot.
I think its more because of the extra stuff included. With Hollow Knight for example it has a manual and a map so cib copies of that will most likely get above msrp eventually. Same with other games like Stardew Valley and Undertale.
Lol it usually doesn't matter if a game is rare, it matters if it's rare AND valuable. And Most recent square games are anything but.
Ya know I'm surprised Nintendo didn't try another Musou game, but it involves the Super Smash Bros Series rather than just Zelda.
They are working on it, it going to surprise, no FE nor Zelda. More like Persona 5 Strikers. Just hang on. Pikmin Warriors defending Hyrule Kingdom by Koei Tecmo.
Love these videos, I’ve been investing on my switch games and they help a lot.
Buying a game because it is gonna go rare, is the most stupid thing I have ever heard.

What's your take on the upcoming Front Mission 1st Remake? Especially the Limited Edition one.
Rare only means limited print cause it didn’t sell well or wasn’t popular enough. Some like to say rare when that’s not the case. Especially eBay sellers saying something is rare when it’s not.
I appreciate these videos, good I got tactics ogre for $10 less than current price. Can’t wait for the next one.
Minimum amount for printing new games is 1k btw..
You going to make another one of these soon?
Nice list thanks for the information
Yes keep this series going i love this about your channel. ❤
Great video. I own them all, just waiting for advance wars to come.
Advance wars will die fast like Bayonetta origins
Add in Mega Man battle network legacy collection, no store in my area had any on launch day
Whoa those games got good framerates. Is that the video quality??
games at the end of the console's life used to be cheap, now it costs an arm and a leg!
I love Harvestella and I hope to see it cover it in one of your top videos!.
I loved Death’s Door so much! Got the collectors edition 😈
Yep low key investments, going on the hunt for some of these.
Do you recommend keeping these games sealed?
I love this series
Nice list O.J.👍! I´m holding out on Captain Toud for years, I´m kind of to stupid to play those games, takes me ages to solve.
Cadence of Hyrule Crypt of the NecroDancer can be bought now, that one won´t get restocked.
Harvestella is doodoo 😂
Have you even played it?
20XX 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Love your analysis of these games. Bought every one and subbed to your channel.
