my recommendation is to keep it aside, and in a future episode you commit the whole episode to trying to find the budget to buy it off yourself, and if you fail, you have to sell it and all profit from that episode can go to another project or another episode
that way you still take a swing at getting the game in a gamecube gambit episode, but you can still count the profit from selling it in this episode because you bought it off yourself at the expected price
That’s an amazing suggestion in my opinion
He already used the fund from the game in this episode, so he wouldn’t be able to buy it from himself, as per the rules of the challenge.
@@krossboe8512 thats what im saying, if he buys it off himself at the price he expected to sell the disc ($650 if i remember correctly) then he'll still have earned that profit
@@struanpeat5116 it’s already listed on his eBay store for over 1k. Also he says he doesn’t want loose stuff, only CIB, anyways
i found it complete at my local game store for 50 bucks lmao, its so cheap in europe
You gotta flip that Pokémon game, the profit alone will buy you some high end games. But the chase is also so much fun to watch to find a complete copy!
Bruh why do you keep negotiating the super nice guy who runs the shop you do business with often and gives great prices for you
I love that you stick to the rules you set out on the journey. It makes it so much more satisfying to see you add each game to the collection.
I love how honest you are! You easily could’ve edited this video/told the story to look like Game Exchange came last in the day and you had enough money to buy BOX! Either way I’m glad you found it
I remember seeing that Pokémon Box in another video a while back and was surprised you didn’t grab it. But slow and steady won the race cuz not only was it marked down but you got a discount on top! Greatness happens to those who are patient I guess!
What video was that
Yeah, I remember it too and when he showed his list a few episodes later and I saw that it wasn’t checked off, I got confused bc I thought he bought it lol
Did u even finish the video
Bro shut up pls
Thats not a gambit video if he buy it he have to sale it on that video
I would definitely sell Pomemon Box for now, you will be much more satisfied finding it complete, and once you knock out these other games on your list, it wont take much for you to get that amount together. Glad to see Box go, I had been tempted to buy it in the past lol.
Caleb, I’m so invested into your channel and series that I started to resell and collect.
I started my n64 and GameCube collection the end of January and have 4 Nintendo 64’s and 3 GameCubes lol. I have about 20 games for the GameCube and 15 for the 64. I’ve made more money flipping than I’ve spent.
Thank you for the mentorship through your videos. I will eventually start amazon after I get more comfortable with eBay!
Keep grinding
Same. I'm collecting the games I want for the N64, GameCube and Wii as well as some old Pokemon games. They are all free with the profits I made
Thanks for making my day once again with your awesome videos man. I still reflect on the first video I saw of yours which oddly took place in one of my local pawn shops in TN. I honestly have been hooked ever since. Man you and Retro Rick (whom you also made me aware of) have help helped me in some of my toughest times and even tho I am still in a struggle right now it makes it all worth it to get on here and enjoy your great content. Keep it up buddy!!! High hopes that you keep prospering in all that you love!!!
I remember a few years ago, the game store inside of the Fayette Mall had a complete Pokemon Box for like $350, looking back, i should have bought it, and flipped it now for $1500 lol
Like your honest and sticking to rules for your challenge! This is why I like your channel and will keep watching. Keep up good work!
I love these videos man, these videos relieve so much stress and make me feel like there is something to look forward too in life.
Good job! 11 GameCube Games for a decent price. Keep up the good work and can not wait till I see you finish your list. Love this challenge you are doing.
I appreciate you sticking to your rules about the GameCube gambit, of course it may be awhile or it could be next week to find another Pokémon box, either way it’s nice that you aren’t bending the rules for it. Keeping it authentic
You've really inspired me. I have been wanting to do this for several years, and I think I might bite the bullet and jump in. Grats on Pokemon; that's insane!
Burnout and NFS are both incredible franchises especially back in the day. I played tons of Burnout 2 and NFS Underground on the Gamecube which i strongly recommend for everyone who enjoys classic arcade racing.
I also think that the graphics of Burnout 2 are incredible on the Gamecube and the handling of the cars are very nice and feel natural.
Congratulations On Finding Pokemon Box!! My Suggestion Is That You Put It Aside!
Now, in terms of the Scooby-Doo game that could have been added, I would have suggested Night Of A 100 Frights because of how popular it was. Not that Unmasked and Mystery Mayhem are bad (Which they are so much fun), but Night Of 100 Frights would make ANY collection look fun!
Now, you do NOT have to take these recommendations for the GameCube Collection, but I feel that these would be great to add:
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2
Dragon Ball Z: Sagas
Ed, Edd, N' Eddy: The Mis Ed-Ventures
A Naruto Game (Any Game)
Scooby-Doo: Mystery Mayhem
Scooby-Doo: Night Of 100 Frights
But once again dude, fantastic video, and congratulations on ALL the latest pickups AND Pokemon Box! Keep up the great work!
Man this channel keeps getting better !! Thank You Caleb!!
This is a really creative and fun to watch challenge. Been hooked on these videos all day, especially since I collect Gamecube games as well. Definitely subbed to follow along
Killing itttt!
Crazy find, cant believe you didnt use all of the budget from that and still had enough to get every one you wanted and needed for the gambit!!🤟
The price difference between pal and ntsc stuff is crazy, as a comparison the pal copy of Pokémon box disc is $70 aud , however something like Pokémon xd gale of darkness complete is worth over $400 aud which I think is a fair bit more than the ntsc version
Its 35-40€ only on eBay in Germany. Thats crazy …
i buy XD gale of darkness complete yesterday at 15
When he started stacking those games and they were hanging over the edge my heart rate shot up…congrats on the big haul!
This is the 1st video I've seen of yours really enjoyed watching this you have a bunch of really cool small shops around you cool seeing other game stores other than gamestop 👍
Love the videos man, you make me appreciate my childhood a lot more
Hey Caleb! Thanks for the great content! I watch your videos now daily lol I live through you! Keep up the awesome vids!
Burn Out is the best. I remember buying that game at Toys R Us back in the day. I had never heard of it before, but the crashes looked insane. I still remember on the back of the box it said "Hyperventilating is part of the fun!"
I'm just starting to realize how valuable my GameCube collection is. I've got burnout, kirby air ride, Mario party 7, Lego star wars, Smash bro's melee, need for speed carbon just to name a few. I had no idea they were worth so much. they are just games I bought when I was a kid... crazy.
I love ur videos! You got me into videos games again! Love ur channel!!!!
hello found ur channel 2 days ago and now i am hooked and subbed thx bro
"get out of my store" LOLLLLL great writing
I love this idea and series you’re doing, just found them . I was watching a different one of yours before this and yt closed couldn’t find that one again.
But in that video a pawnshop was looking up game prices as you were choosing them and quoting the prices, I don’t like that method myself . Feel like they should have set prices beforehand.
Dude. I heard you say Kentucky, look at your background, and you’re literally in my city. Gosh, I wish I knew that Pokémon box was there!!!!!! Congrats man!!
Best GC Gambit episode yet! Great stuff Phoenix.
I have over 1800 hours into Resident Evil 4. Most of that is probably from me speed running the game over and over and the mercenaries mode :D
Really enjoyed this episode I am I watching for a few weeks but really enjoying your channel.
Best series on YT, glad u decided to flip pokemon box
New subscriber!! Love your videos! Love the GameCube Series you have going on!! Have your notifications on!!
Hold this video as your trophy my friend.... you managed to get what you want being patient and trusting your gut respecting your rule ❤ so glad I found you in my recommended just a shame I cannot use your content as much as I'm UK market
Great video GameCube gambit videos are always a blast 💥
16:09 my god that brought back so much nostalgia used to play that with my cousins at my grandma's
Love it when you go crazy in Ryan's store! ha. he's awesome.
another great video! Love seeing these :D Yay!
I'm already ready for the next vid Caleb!
Well you’re a lot closer than I realized- not one of those people who obsess over online personalities but could you imagine going to buy some games and seeing this guy there!
A question I’ve had for a few days since I found you- do you ever run into fans or subs who say hello? If so does it bother you?
Awwww... the offer is US Only! Nice video and good job on your shopping. Like how you share afterwards when you finish shopping at each store. No GAMECUBE SYSTEM :( it's hard to find one in my area. Not wanting to go on eBay or Amazon or even online would rather buy at a local game shop. Gotta have to wait! I am playing heavy is my new GAME & WATCH ZELDA and I have also been playing ELEVATOR ACTION on the NES. You always go to Chipotle for food; to bad none in my area. From Ontario Canada.... Thanks for your videos! Keep up good work.
I love this series so much, I live for this
I would definitely have sold it. You made the right decision.
I think this has been my favorite GG episode yet. 🙂 Also, I made need to make a weekend trip out of your stops. Living in Southeastern Indiana, that’s very doable. 😉
Talk about an amazing episode that's freaking crazy🙀
I think in the future what would be fair is if you manage to grow your budget enough that you could have bought it with your budget (without adding its own flipping price) by the end of the video you can keep it as your gambit pur have and if not then you have to take the hit and sell it for the gambit budget
It would allow you to pick up some harder to find games if you see them early on in your gambit so you don't have to miss out on the more expensive and rare titles without you needing to risk going over on the budget
Might also be cool to have videos where you do a gambit focused on saving so you have enough to spend on a bigger game because I know it's gonna be hard to build up enough budget in just one video for some of those games
When I seen you flip the Pokemon box at the end I was saying please God don't let his clumsy fingers drop this lol
This is his best Gambit haul yet. Amazing deals too.
9:10 back in the day and being a kid and having that one sibling or family member in your family that rarely ever plays (almost never video games) but has one game and only got that one game on your system we all remember having that one obviously not yours game in your collection that that belong to a family member of yours that was super embarrassing to see your collection nostalgia
Insane to see how much that game has gone up
Man I love those those little edits from random movies
Once you finish getting the last 29 games. What will you flip to buy next? I love the whole fun idea of the gamecube gambit series. Look forward to all your videos.
I'm collecting GameCube games too slowly . I only get black lable cib.. I love watching you do it as well you made me start it .
UGH, hit me with the bomber man nostalgia. Played it on the OG xbox all the time! growing up!
Duuuude I’m like 30 minutes from that GameHub lol hope you enjoyed TN man!
I would add up left over budget from previous episodes of the GameCube gambit, then justify keeping it!
congrats on the sponsorship from micro center. that is awesome.
the fact you found it in the wild warrants a keep.
Caleb, Madden 2008 on GameCube has been selling on eBay for $30+ for a while. I didn't see how much it was when you grabbed Brats, but it's worth keeping an eye out in your hunting, an unexpectedly valuable sports game.
Idk why I just got a huge dopamine hit from watching someone else buy games but I love it!
Smash bros Melee and I have nearly 10,000 hours in on it. I play competitively. Great video as always!
Can someone explain, why Pokemon Box is currently at around 80-120€ on ebay in Germany?
Is that a different version? Or have the prices just heavily dropped in the last two years?
I think you will have to attend some conventions to find the final games. Midwest gaming classic returns April. Make some stops on your way north
gotta love the blaster master water stage theme!
I look forward to this every week 😁
I LOVE THIS SERIES MAN!!
Editor Riff: small tip. When ever Caleb tosses games for dramatic effect @0:28. Please edit out the sound of them hitting the floor. Small details like that can make a video's quality seem that much better
When he said best youtube gamecube series.. and worst popped up i died lol
Big inspiration! Love the channel.
That need for speed most wanted cover made me tear up, I loved that game
Man you hit me with that Mega man bro lets go!!
Good call on the pokemon box honestly. Better to get it in its case for the collection. My local game store has a copy of ribbit king in Washington state too.
Saw Chibi Robo on the list, i haven't thought about that game in forever
It's funny I recently purchased Chibi Robo from you. Love the gamecube gambit.
Thank you for this I started my wii and GameCube collection because of this
You did something because another person was doing it? Lol ok🐑
Love the channel watch it everyday!!!
When I lived in Russellville Kentucky I loved going to that exact game x change! Made my heart happy to see it again.
And great escape!! God this is making me nostalgic. I moved a few years ago and haven't been back yet. I miss it.
Mario golf on the GameCube was a legendary game growing up
Should have titled the video “game collector almost cracks game taking it off the tray.” 😁
Went to eBay after seeing this video looking up what it’d run me to get Pokémon box complete and saw your listing haha. If it sells anywhere near what you have it up for rn you better roll that extra money into the next gambit vid
Phantasy Star Online Ep. 1&2 - Probably 1,500 hours? Great video.
That Pokémon background music is so nostalgic to me 😊
I love this serie so much!
22 minute video?? Yes please :)
congrats man 17 to go =) finally u have list on ur phone
You know what’s crazy that pokemon box game is £100 in CEX in the UK is crazy how much prices differ between countries
how does the amazon selling work? Do you ship the items out to amazon and they ship to buyer, or do you deal with listing and shipping?
Ok, wait what? Pokemon box is the rarest game cube game mentioned in the title? I inherited my dad's Nintendo collection, plus my own personal copy, both with boxes and manuals. I seriously had no idea. Thanks for the video. *Runs off to check ebay*
I think you need to make a second part and try to make enough profit to keep the Pokémon box game. Would be fun to watch you try to squeeze it out.
watching Phoenix eat chipotle while I’m eating chipotle 🔥🔥🔥
My most played game was Billy Hatcher at like 100 hours, then followed by digimon 4 and then sonic adventure 2. I'm only 19 now so I was not that old when the Gamecube was around, that being said, it is one of my favorite systems eve4r.
Mario golf was 🔥 had it while I was in the hospital a few months when I was a kid
I'd say definitely the right choice to flip Pokemon Box, as I'd say the chances of finding the box and manual for it separately would be like a needle in a haystack and ultimately just getting a fully complete one in one go will be the easiest.
As for most played GameCube game, definitely Mario Kart: Double Dash, though had there not been a Wii sequel within 2 years, Super Mario Strikers would probably have taken that crown.
While your heading to Tennessee swing down to buckhannon WV to preplayed media and look at are vintage game store. Yeah we def have some of them games you need on your list still
Hercules was a fantastic game on the PS. On the Pokemon Box however this would be my decision, "Is this America? Yes! Then do you Caleb! Keep that game."
Just picked up 5 GameCube games all complete. Surf's up, shark tale, open season, the incredibles and Madagascar at a thrift store $4 each very rare that I find GameCube games.
