The Story of the Gamecube (Complete Series)

- The Nintendo Gamecube is loved by many, but the era of Nintendo it represents was one of the most difficult for the company. It would take everything in Nintendo's power to make the system successful. In the Story of the Gamecube, I look at the history and development of the console while also giving an honest critique on the system and Nintendo as a whole.

The third anniversary of the Story of the Gamecube is coming up and I wanted to share some thoughts with you guys about the video.
I'm still amazed that I made this series and really started taking youtube seriously. I started making videos on here all the way back in 2010 with scripted comedy bits. I tried a bunch of different things over the years, but I spent the bulk of the mid-2010's not making videos on a consistent basis. I was in my early 20's and free time wasn't all that common.
Eventually the bug was scratching way too hard and I decided to give video making another run. I started working on a series of videos about the gamecube in early 2018. I spent months researching everything I could about the gamecube in an attempt to make the ultimate series on the video. The final product became more of a documentary than I originally intended, but I liked it and kept going. By the time I finished this series, I knew I wanted to keep making videos about video game history.
As my first video in the series, The Story of the Gamecube is rough around the edges. The quality isn't nearly as high as it is today and my voice is awful. I have no idea who I was trying to impersonate. But the core foundation is still there. I remember having a ton of fun making this series and it'll always hold a special place in my heart. It's what finally got me into youtube as a platform and I'm grateful for that.
And I'm grateful for everyone who has watched this series! If I went back three years ago and told myself that this video would have over 100,000 views, I would have lost my mind. That's the reality today and I'm still as shocked as ever. Thank you so much for watching and enjoy the videos!
(Should I remake this at some point? I feel like I almost have to, right?)
@matt snyder yea, I agree
I would argue rather than remake it and put that effort into making a new series. The Wii, the 3ds, so many options.
Only thing I would change: the GameCube didn't achieve the sales numbers of its competitors, but it didn't "fail".
The story of the double dog
@@zanmaru139 I agree, the GC is a modern classic and has probably the best lineup of Nintendo and 3rd part games that a Nintendo system ever saw.
I remember vividly the day I got my GameCube in the summer of 2002. I had gone to the store, money in hand, intending to get a PS2 and Final Fantasy X after seeing the game at a friend's house and being very impressed by it. When I got there, I saw that the GameCube was fifty dollars less so, on the spot, I decided to get one so I could get a second game with it. The two games I got were Sonic Adventure 2 and Super Smash Bros Melee and after getting home and playing them I knew I had made the right choice. I never regretted it and to this day the GameCube is still my favorite game system ever.
PS2 is so overrated.
@@tr3vk4m It's hard for me to say if it's overrated because I virtually never played it except for when I was playing PS1 games or watching DVD's.
@@tr3vk4m no way the ps2 took gaming a step further. There’s a reason it’s the best selling console of all time
bad decision FFX was fantastic one of the greatest gaming experiences ever
@@tr3vk4m The Ps2 is the greatest console ever made. Doesn’t take away from how great the GameCube was or make the fun you had with it any less. Don’t be saying nonsense like the Ps2 was overrated.
First system ever, still remember getting it from my dad like it was yesterday. The exact moment of it being handed to me haha. RIP pops, thanks for an awesome gift, wish I still had it.
Great memory. Lord rest your dad. I remember my mom, who also passed, getting me my Sega Master System for Christmas 86. I still say it's my favorite system!
Last console I got from my parents before I got a part time job. Go figure.
Rip
Rest In Peace ❤️
My condolences for your loss 😞
I agree with ya man,
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker is one of my favorite games I've ever played, my daughter was like 5 or 6 then and I'll never forget playing it with her and the moment we left our island behind for the first time, cause it made her cry cause we were leaving our grandmother behind, and that made her so sad.
That is THE most adorable thing i have read in a while.
So wholesome, thanks for sharing that
Aweee that's so cute
LOL this comment deserves an award, cracked me up
The Gamecube much like the Dreamcast, was a fantastic system. Great games.
@2005 Cool Year Lack of good games? Wdym bro the Gamecube has one of the best console libraries ever. Online play wasn't that popular back then and was very unimportant, also it was only popular on the Xbox.
As a matter of fact I could name over 30 good gamecube games right now.
You're right! Very clever 👏
I feel like the Gamecube and Dreamcast were literally the last of their kind. They had genuine FUN games and were designed to sit in a kids/teenagers bedroom not be part of a sterile looking entertainment setup where half the time you were using it as a DVD player lol.
You know what's also a great game playing your mum
Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem is, IMO, the best GameCube exclusive and the best survival-horror. Very underrated.
My sanity is in requiem due to the underrated nature of this title... always remember that....
I remember enjoying it but it does jot stand out for me like silent hill
Yeah that should've sold way better than it did.
its completely at odds with everything they stand for... they will never promote Horror games, or even action games, as much as they promote their own crap ass IP. Mario, Zelda, Monkey Ball ect ect.. that type of crap.
I knew a kid in 6th grade named Justin who’s grandma gave him like 20 dollar a week allowance and would just buy stuff from other kids cause he was pretty much the only kid with money. I wanted a Gamecube for Christmas but as the youngest of 4 I knew my parents would never spend that much on just me, so I started selling my old N64 games I never played anymore to him for 20 bucks a piece. After getting rid of Mischief Makers, A wrestling game, a shitty racing game I can’t remember, and the south part game I was able to give my parents 80 bucks toward my present. They went the extra mile and got me Smash Melee cause they knew how much I loved playing it at my friends.
I always love reading comments like this. Thank you so much for sharing Gumby!
i remember it was around 2002 & my mom told me I could get any console I wanted. so since my brothers & I shared everything we all settled on the GameCube. I can't remember clearly what games we got at first but I do remember the countless memories of staying up late & playing games all night. we even built a tiny game room & thought we were so cool. thanks for this doc. takes me back at times. miss these days
Madden 08, an otherwise unremarkable title.
Scott the Woz: [rage ensues]
They should've added Grover Cleveland
Excellent job sir! This documentary touched my soul and I appreciate your works on this. I bought my first Gamecube in 9th grade and stood in line at a Walmart. I purchased the purple console on that November 2001 and my mother got me the Luigi's Mansion title for Christmas. I had to wait almost an entire month before I could get the game to play it. Brings back so many memories and I still am playing these games today. In 2020 alone I beat LOZ WindWaker, Mario Sunshine, and Star Fox Assault/Adventures. My wife and I are currently playing Mario Party 4 - 7 even to this day. Excellent console.
This ^ I will never forget the day I got my indigo gamecube with mario sunshine and metroid prime in 2002 now days I'm still playing my gamecube but through dolphin on pc with the gamecube adapter and official controller such a underrated system
I remember Mario sunshine
I got the gamecube back in christmas 2006 when i was a kid. i remember EVERYONE (including my older brother) telling me that it was a crazy idea to get it because the wii was coming out, but it was the BEST decision i ever made because I finally have a way to record gaming footage of all my old gameboy games due to the gameboy player. i still have it to this day! thank god i didnt listen to my stupid older brother :P
Did you get a Wii at some point also?
I bought the GameCube when it first released definitely was one of my favorites Nintendo systems..
I watched this whole thing, very nice job on it.
❤️
I agree!
The Twilight Princess reveal is my favorite E3 moment ever. And I wasn't even on the internet at that point. But the crowd's reaction is just awesome.
Too bad the game is so forgettable, I wanted to like it so much
@@fourlokouva Really?! I played the very first one on NES back when I was a kid in 88 or 89. Other than it being unique, I never played it much and didn't play a Zelda game again until Link to the Past on SNES and LOVED it! I've been hooked on Zelda ever since and Twilight Princess is perhaps my favorite out of them all. Then again, I'm an old fart so maybe that skews things a bit. I also find Majora's Mask annoying and Windwaker overrated.
"Eidios" :p
Enjoying the video!
Just one thing to note, Wind Waker never got a "full remake" on the Wii U. It was a remaster.
I'm a huge Resident evil fan. I remember the day GTA Vice city was coming out going to the mall with my big brother. There was a long waiting line ready for Vice citys release. They let me Come in the store and I told them I was selling my ps2 for a GameCube and a copy of Resident evil remake. People were looking at me like I was crazy lol. Good ole days. That's when Game Stop gave you good deals.
No console ever got as much playtime as the GameCube in our household. Just playing back-to-back 90-minute Melee matches for weeks at a time, City Trial in Kirby air ride, whatever that Wario game was called, and 30 other masterpieces
This is my favourite console. Great work on this video
This is a great little documentary.!
I'm 45 years old and I just bought another GameCube for the first time in 20 years,, you know. I have a lot of fond memories for things from the past, so buying one nowadays ,it's just as I sit down and play ,i come back to the 20 year-old me.. what was going on at the time,, and I remember this, and I remember that in this game... I don't know ?..I guess this is the definition of nostalgic.. I'm having a lot of fun with a GameCube in 2019
i remember i bought mine with metroid prime on new years eve. didnt play it til morning with the worst hangover i've ever had in my life. felt like i was literally dying but i was so amazed by that game at the time i couldn't stop playing.
How the hell is your generation not atari 2600? GC is my gen. I'm 25
@@mattmcgovern6591 lol You'll find out what he means when you turn 45 soon enough.
I still play fire emblem path of radiance and code Veronica one of the best re story wise ever. And a very long game when both campaigns are factored in.
I love the Gamecube! It's my favorite console of all time. Such a unique console with innovative ideas, and really fun peripherals. Metroid Prime, RE4, and that oh-so-scary Resident Evil Remake! So many other good titles. I'll probably never shoot for a full collection, but I've got about 150 games, WAY more than any other console in my collection. Thanks for this well-written piece. One suggestion: you may want to get a different microphone or work on leveling, since there was some fuzzy distortion of your voice. Keep 'em coming!
Thanks for the comment! I switched to a new microphone and camera after I finished this series so hopefully later videos look and sound better.
resident evil 0 is amazing too once you get past the difficulty and tedious inventory management. i actually ended up liking it a little more than remake after i beat it a couple times.
i love you
surprising to hear all this, i loved the gamecube so much. i still have my black one and my wavebird controller. sunshine, zelda collectors , luigis mansion, smash melee, the star wars games,windwaker. all amazingly fun. was my first consol
My favorite console.
These games are excellent
Wind Waker
Melee
Metroid Prime 1/2
Pikmin 1/2
Luigi's Mansion
Mario Sunshine
Mario Kart Double Dash
So much Mario. Geez
Sonic Adventures 2 : Battle , Mario Party 6 , StarFox adventures
I agree with you on those. I loved ssx too. A snowboarding game for those who dont know
@@BigHungryJo 1080 snowboarding on the n64 was my favorite snowboarding game. i'm not really into snowboarding games but i was hooked on that one for a long time.
Paper Mario TTYD
I was at E3 2001 when they showcased the Gamecube, and it was such a blast to play it. Rogue Squadron was my favorite to play on the expo floor. What a party!
Yeah well wgaf
Absolutely brilliant and relevant. Keep playing Gamecube!
wish i still had mine just so i could play metroid prime. my favorite metroid and one of my favorite games of all time.
Jack M Dolphine 5.0 😉
The GameCube is one of the greatest retro consoles ever!
the WII was basically a beefed up GameCube, it even plays Gamecube games.
The launch edition does but the 2011 model and the wii mini do not
@@aidanhelfrich4887 wii mini?? googling this rn bc i'm a product of the wii's time and i've never heard of that lol
@@miasmith8942 My friend had a Wii Mini
the switch is the second version of the Wii U
@@BronzeLincolns81 You arent wrong. I mean almost all games got ported over
I had a blessed childhood. Was 10 years old in 2002 and owned both PS2 & Gamecube. What an amazing time 😊
Damn I only had a GameCube and a PS1 haha played the shit out of GTA2 though
The GameCube is still one of my favorite systems ever. I loved the cube shape with a handle, (easier to take to friend’s houses) and I loved the controller. To me, it was fun and comfortable.
I’ll never forget playing Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness with my childhood best friend, or making my brother and cousin mad at me because on Melee all I knew how to do was spam Pikachu’s thunderbolt. 😂
Plus, The Legend of Zelda collectors edition was awesome. Unfortunately I was still a little too young at the time to beat Majora’s Mask, because Pamela’s dad scared the crap out of me.
Wow, thank you for taking so much time in putting together this immersed and informative video on the GameCube. Bravo 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼
Your summary brought the entire video together so beautifully! Great job!
What a great video. Gamecube is my favorite console of all times. Always the underdog!
mine too
Nintendo Gamecube wasn't a Failure... We the People failed The Gamecube.
Damn. This is the best comment on this entire website.
Exactly. Same with the Dreamcast
@@SixBeasts1
How many games did dreamcast have?
@@majingamer6109 ..... SEGA DreamCast had 624 games....
The last official release was a MileStone Inc. shoot-em-up called Karous, and that was released on the 8th of March… 2007. Yes, no typo - it was indeed released six years after the Dreamcast disappeared from shelves
@@majingamer6109 .... The Nintendo GameCube had 654 games.
I’m late to this doc, but it was great! Awesome retrospective, and great job. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
59:14 “It was Madden 08, an otherwise unremarkable title” Scott would be furious
😂
This was absolutely incredible! A thoroughly wonderful look at the GameCube right here.
I was so excited when the Capcom exclusives were announced. I really loved viewtiful joe, re4, and killer7. Suda 51 and grasshopper studios are among my favorite developers, if not number 1. I may have never known about his games if it wasn’t for my GameCube.
I don't know how i just now found this channel but good job. I love videogame history. Keep 'em coming!
oh man thanks for the playlist, i'm going to watch all of these while i'm sick
I loved gamecube when I was young the game I liked the most was the remake to Sonic Adventure Sonic DX
It's really amazing how the perception of this system changed.
In 2003, on Nintendo forums, actual Nintendo fans were saying "this system has horrible third party support, how can Nintendo learn from this and make sure they NEVER make a mistake like the Gamecube again."
By 2013, people on Nintendo forums were saying "Nintendo needs to get back into gear and make a GOOD system like the Gamecube that third parties are actually willing to develop for."
great video, man! i actually watched and enjoyed the full video. very well done!
As a kid, I rarely played the GameCube and only at a friend's house, but this video brought back a bunch of memories
Awesome video man ! I can see you put some serious effort into this video, top quality for sure 👍🏽
Love this video dude, great research!
Deserves millions more reviews, damn the algorithm!
I love these retrospectives and I have to say that this is by far the most comprehensive available for the Gamecube.
I’ve come back to this video twice within the past year, sucks you don’t have more subs bro. You def deserve way more than 2k
The journalism in your videos are amazing. Thankyou!
Such fond memories of the GameCube. A lot of the classics still hold up today, wind waker, smash bro’s, Luigi mansion, resident evil 4 to name a few
I thought Luigi's mansion was way too short of a game
I disagree capcom helped the gamecube alot what other console of the early 2000's had the entire resident evil franchise besides the gamecube none the gamecube had resident evil 0.1.2.3.4.Cv that's the reason I chose the gamecube was because of the resident evil franchise.
Gamecube was the best console for Resident Evil
I like street fighter from capcom
today I'm just playing them on the PlayStation I still have my GameCube on my shelf the only Nintendo console I have ever owned or will ever own because I play mostly PlayStation
@@redseagaming7832 😎😎😎😎😎😎
Capcom helped out the cube w Viewtiful Joe!
You're doing an awesome job with these videos. I grew up playing video games ever since the original NES and I still game today.
So these videos take me down memory lane which I really enjoyed
Wow, what a historic journey ride to the history of the GameCube...I've learned soo much from this.
I know this is old but I really enjoyed it. I've been homebrewing my Wii and playing all the Wii and GC games. Between that and this video I'm on a nostalgia bender. Thank you and subbed.
Please, tell me you arent gone! I just got here, I LOVE your channel.
Thanks for the compliment! I've got a new video coming out this Sunday with more content on the way.
@@DoubleDog uP
great informative video. and i see youve got others like it. subbed.
Awesome documentary ! Really in depth and well Made. Love it!
Resident evil 4 was the best. I put so much hours into it
No. Resident Evil 1 Remake and Resident Evil 0.
Been watching this numerous times. The thing I found very interesting was the line of that Nintendo executive saying "Consumers don't want fun anymore." On the bright side though, Nintendo's business mistakes with the Gamecube eventually paved the way for the successes of the DS, 3DS, Wii and most of all, the Switch.
The Wii was kind of a "mixed bag" while it did make them money in the short term is set up the catastrophic failure that was the Wii U.
Great and detailed content. Keep up the good work
Great job, really enjoying this. Bringing back so many good memories.
The issue with the mini DVD is hugely overstated. Few games used multiple discs on the GameCube and the GameCube version of a game was almost always better than the PS2 version. GC also had a great deal of third party support, especially in comparison to the N64, Wii, and Wii U.
That drought of games, really bit them in the ass. But is such a bliss to see Melee still kicking ass. Pokemon colosseum and XD are classics.
That was pretty awesome series . Really enjoyed watching and learning more about the GameCube
I'm so lucky I came across this channel. Amazing stuff.
so many great memories with the gamecube. i remember always going across the street to play it at a family friends house. then one day he just gave it to us and me and my siblings had so much fun playing games like melee and sonic adventure 2. definitely a great console
Amazingly done, I hope to see more "Story off's" in the future. Looking forward to one of the Wii or N64!
I love the way your voice and audio quality sounds, you remind me of a 90s news reporter and its nostalgic!
Excellent video!! Thanks for the quality content.
I watched the entire thing bro, feels like a movie. Great Job I love Nintendo
This is Really awesome! Honestly, the Gamecube library is one of the greatest gaming library out there, Hopefully you can do something similar like this with the Wii.
Amen
Very good videos. I've gone through history of Wii U and now Gamecube, and you do a great job and your reporting is accurate. Nice!
I really appreciate your extensive investigation--Thank you. So many life changing memories with this console
The gamecube was awesome and underrated for its time.
I got a GameCube in 2005 and was very happy with it, it had the best first party games, the minidisc was annoying and some games were split into 2 disc's but the gameplay more than made up for it.
This is blessed 🔥 thank you for making this 🙏🏼
Love your channel, thank you for all the content
I still remember back in 2002 going to an internet cafe to watch resident evil remake trailer on a dial up internet speed. Many years later I traded an xbox for a gamecube and played most of it's games
Still own my GameCube and loving it just bought mario party 4 to complete my mario party collection.
I still have Mario Party 4 and it actually works lol
I got a purple and a silver version that is like new, I will never get rid of them. Still play fire emblem and twilight princess and so many other GameCube games
Your channel is awesome, keep up the fantastic work!
Great vid. ive watched it like 3 times now lol. but I have to say this seems more of a documentary on that gen of gaming rather than just the GC but still great
I watched this whole thing and i swear it never mentioned how the GC was the second most powerful console that gen
I thought it was THE most powerful....
Edit: THOUGHT! CHILL PEOPLE, THOUGHT! I get that it's not so you can stop telling me over and over and over again I GET IT!!! Sheesh!
@@shoolima7131 No the original Xbox was the most powerful of that generation.
@@davidpallotti4502 No.... It was the most powerful. Just the small discs bottle necked that power, but it was more powerful than the x box.
I think..
@@davidpallotti4502 Imma do some more research real quick, but I'm pretty sure that the game cube was the most powerful.
They did handheld interconnectivity with the n64 and the game boy - remember pokemon stadium? :)
Next level playing your Gameboy games on the big screen.
And supergameboy
Playing Pokemon thru Pokemon stadium was the best way to play red/blue/yellow/gold/silver/crystal.
I appreciate your work in recording history.
This is awesome! Love listening to your channel!
Oh Boy, your passing mention of the Wavebird controller was pathetic. To this day it's still one of the best controllers out there for any system. For being wireless the response of that controller is unbelievable and reliable.
'pathetic' wow haha... strong words, calm down 0.o
He had already mentioned that the GCN controller layout is one of the best ever, the fact a wireless version was then made doesn't need to be elaborated THAT much...
Don't forget it doesn't have rumble if that's an important feature to a player. So it did have at least one downside.
But I do remember GI's thoughts on it. They called it Martian technology!
Dude the wavebird truly is one of the best controllers of all time.
Chill dude no one cares
Also the Wavebird was the first wireless remote controller for a console. Sony and Microsoft copied it after.
Super cool video man, just getting recommended now but I subbed.
Very well done on your video.. I'd sure wish that I could of had own one when it first came out
Resident Evil 4 is one of the best games ever im like round 28 last time I hooked up my ps2
Nintendo gamecube was the best by far!! Love it since I got it when it was released. I have had all 3 systems, and gamecube is my favorite
This is a great documentary, I go back to the NES, never had a GameCube till last year, and love the system.
Excellent job on this video!!! I STILL cherish my GameCube, paired with the Gameboy Player and lots of titles for GB, GBA, SP and GameCube.
Gamecube was and still is super underrated, happy to see it getting love here
Something felt off about Nintendo during this era. The GameCube is my least favorite of their systems. Great channel! Should be bigger!
I’d say the most “off” Nintendo has been, was during their Wii U tenure. But they learned from past mistakes, and brought us the switch. A console that has sold very well, and that has been positively received by fans and critics alike.
The library was the strongest of all
@@jimbeaux89 it felt like Nintendo was trying to find themselves, in a post GTA3 world. Sunshine wasn’t that great, to me. The rerelease on Switch reminded me of that. Double Dash...I honestly don’t remember why I couldn’t get into this game, but I remember putting it aside, about a month after purchase. I will say, I did enjoy Eternal Darkness. I didn’t find Melee enjoyable. I could go on. N64 is my favorite Nintendo system. I had so many incredible moments playing that system. Not to mention how revolutionary it was. I didn’t feel that with the GC. Also, they made so many blunders that didn’t help. Introducing that Zelda trailer, then give the public Wind Waker instead was huge. Almost like FF7 being announced for PSone instead of the 64, huge! E3’s dedicated to games like Pac-Man vs., while people waited for the MEGATON announcement, which never came. Of course, this is all personal taste,
Honestly, I bought the GC on launch day, hated it, repacked it, and got my money back. Thats the only time I’ve don’t something like that. I bought another one, later. I don’t remember what compelled me to. Maybe it was the release of Sunshine.
Quality and informative video. Highly respect the work you put in to make this.
Awesome video! Thank you!
Your GameCube nostalgia is wonderful and comical because the only TV you could connect it to was in your kitchen. Very cute.
- SNES Gen
The Switch has the reach the GameCube should of had. We failed the GameCube. The GC didn't fail, it just underperformed.
The PS2 didn't sell well because it had a DVD player, that was marketing spin at the time. Most people who bought a PS2 already had a DVD player, they weren't as expensive as people today think that they were. The DVD player function was a marketing point for sure, but people who bought a PS2 only mentioned the DVD player as a satellite reason for wanting a PS2. People bought the PS2 because it was made by Sony and the PS1 was so popular.
Great work bro, I’m shocked you don’t have more subscribers
Great times! Being a lower class family, the price drop made it possible for someone like me to get a console that wasn't 2 generations old. I would take my GameCube everywhere and phantasy star online ep1and2 is still one of my most played games. Miss these days sometimes.
It was the cheapest current gen console ever I think, I got it for 99 bucks with Metroid Prime somewhere around 2003.
Scott the Woz would be pissed to hear you call Madden 08 an unremarkable title
The game cube is one of the greatest game consoles ever:
-it had far less games then other consoles, not to mention pcs
-it didn't support networking unlike other consoles, not to mention pcs
-it didn't support cds nor dvds unlike other consoles, not to mention pcs
-it was designed to look like a clown vomit unlike other consoles, not to mention pcs
Truly the greatest game console ever. It is to be expected from a company that:
-treated and still treats 3rd party developers like stray dogs begging for a bone unlike
-enforced family friendly liberal bullshit onto games and software and standardised and normalized corporate censorship atop of governmental censorship in the process
-fought tooth and nail against cross platforming
-fought tooth and nail against publishing on multiple platforms, practically raising a virtual berlin wall between gamers that won't let its costumers play non nintendo games nor let other platform gamers play nintendo games
-actively hunts down and sues people trying to build or find a way to play nintendo games that requires a console nintendo no longer makes nor support the game itself, leaving no legal way to play the games they have already paid for.
This is an awesome documentary, it was as enjoyable to watch as it was to play some of the GameCubes best titles.
What blows my mind is, as I was growing up I was the only one I knew who had a Gamecube.
I initially thought everyone had them (I was like, 6 and had a pretty good childhood). I had no idea.
Then later on, I realized a LOT of people had no idea the Wii could even play Gamecube games.
I just... feel so sorry for everyone. Barely anyone enjoyed the Gamecube when it was in it's prime.
I had my Gamecube until about 2016 when I sold it and I have missed it ever since. Now the games I had are worth a hundred dollars a piece second hand.
So bummed.
