Why is it so hard finding gamecube titles at stores?

I found Rogue Leader for $10 new at a Sears not too long ago. I was shocked.

And buy as many gaming collection discs as you can. I kind it funny that SEGA is charging $5-$8 for ONE Sonic game when I got a whole disc of Sonic games for $14 new.

I got most of these around the first 6 months of last year. I know I'm missing SSBM, Mario Sunshine & Star Fox Assault. But I've played or owned all 3 in the past and didn't like them, so figured they weren't worth buying.

Funny thing I have noticed, even the crappy ones like Space Raiders are hard to find in stores.
 
[quote name='Lone_Prodigy']I have Baten Kaitos Origins for sale, unless you're looking for a sealed copy. Twin Snakes is $22 at EB, and Rogue Leader is $18. IMO, just buy Rogue Squadron III (Rebel Strike): you get the entire set of Rogue Leader missions (co-op though, and much harder) plus some cool bonuses from Episode II. It's only $10 at EB too.[/quote]i highly prefer sealed or mint/complete for all my games, thanks for the heads up though :)

I'm surprised more of you don't have the two exclusives with guest appearances by Mario, Luigi and Peach... NBA Street v3 and SSS on Tour. (I have a sealed one of each available for trade--or sale, I suppose. :)) )

I for one think speeding down a steep hill is a stupid sport.

I rather play basketball in real life than on a gaming system.
 
i quite enjoy snowboarding, i try to go up once a week to grouse mountain, anyways ssx games aren't bad at all, but as much of an exclusive whore as i am, i can't justify buying a game i won't play, especially with the backlog i currently have
 
i have a ps2 collection too so i already have ssx on tour on the ps2. if a gam is from both systms i tend to lean towards he ps2 version first. the only one i have th of is re 4 since there were things in the ps2 version that weren in the gc version. im on the fence on getting soul calibur 2 , mario golf, billy hatcher, and luigis mansion. if the zelda disk with ura zelda were cheaper id ite but i cant justify paying that much for it. man i wish there was a way to bck up your games on the gc the way you can on the ps2.
 
for Soul Calibur II Link is the best extra character. None of them really make sense. Though they aren't as out of place as Yoda/Vader. But link is the least out of place.


YOu have NBA Stree vol3? man I really wanted that game. I don't know if you'd trade for anything in my list (it's a bit small atm) but take a look

Well, of course there is a way, but that isn't suppose to be discussed here, even though we are talking about backing up ones own games (which is what I do, and only what I do.)
 
[quote name='maigoyume']as much of an exclusive whore as i am, i can't justify buying a game i won't play, especially with the backlog i currently have[/quote]

Yeah I agree with getting only exclusives, but the GC is the only last-gen console I own. Until the Wii gets a hockey game I have to be content with NHL 06. :whistle2:(
 
same, but i've been slowly stocking up on xbox games for my 360, gotta find some time to actually play ninja gaiden and ninja gaiden black
 
​
The ones that are sideways are Super Monkey Ball, Super Monkey Ball Adventure, Alien Hominid, Sonic Collection and Sonic Gems Collection. I kept reading about Super Monkey Ball being this great game but I didn't know which one to get so I've gotten both of them. Funny thing is I haven't had time to play either of them. Part of the reason for the glare on those ones is they are both still sealed.

The prides of my collection Ikaruga, Viewtiful Joe, Both Zelda Collections, Alien Hominid and Hulk Ultimate destruction. I think it's pretty decent considering the only consoles I have are :gc: and :ds: . I am missing a few games I really want like PoP3, one of the Splinter Cells

[quote name='soonersfan60']I'm surprised more of you don't have the two exclusives with guest appearances by Mario, Luigi and Peach... NBA Street v3 and SSS on Tour. (I have a sealed one of each available for trade--or sale, I suppose. :)) )[/QUOTE]
I'd be interested in NBA Street. I don't know if I have anything you'd be interested in but check out my list.
 
Just throwin it out there to check out rental stores for games as well. I was able to snag MGS:TS for 9.99 at blockbuster and Zelda: 4 swords for 13.99 at a liquidating Hollywood video store today.
 
People had 5 years to buy Gamecube titles. If they have to wait for t he system to be retired before actually deciding to buy them, of course no one is going to find them in stores. 3rd parties bailed on the system 1/2 way into it's life span. Since the Wii was introduced, stores refused to carry newer titles that weren't established selllers in the Player's Choice banner, or movie/sports tie-ins. Look at Radio Allergy, a game that was all set to ship until a week beforehand, when they disclosed that not even Amazon was willing to carry it, because stores were moving away from the old titles. No store that isn't a complete serviceable videogame outlet is going to dedicate space to games for a system that no one is buying.
 
I think the problem people have aren't the third party games, but the first party games. It was always hard to find Mario DRR, and I have wanted Mario Tennis for awhile and have never seen it in store even at release.

Today however I added Viewtiful Joe, SSX Snowboarding with Mario, which is one really badly controlled game (Push three buttons before/during doing a stunk is insane), but the game looks really nice and it's fun hitting people while going down the mountain. :) And i got Midway Arcade Tressures 3 all for $9 each new. Great deal.
 
if any of you are looking for the zelda collectors editions they were both available on ebgamesas of early this morning. youre not gauranteed a complete copy but if you just want the game its there.
 
does anyone know which of he 2 zelda games is the hardest to find or most valuable? is it the one with 4 zelda games on it or the one with 2?
 
[quote name='lokizz']does anyone know which of he 2 zelda games is the hardest to find or most valuable? is it the one with 4 zelda games on it or the one with 2?[/quote]

The one with two games on it would be more valuable TO ME since it is the only release of the Master Quest of OOT. Collector's edition seems to go for more money though.

+1, I bought the Collector's Edition mostly for Majora's Mask, which I don't believe is on the Wii VC yet.
 
another question is luigis mansion a good game? ive been on the fence on whether to get it because on one hand luigi gets his own game so i kind of want ti just for that but damn if they dont want too much for it. i cant see how this ame goes for so much and metroid can be bought for 5 with bonus disk.

It's worth a play. I'm a fan of all things Nintendo so I had to pick it up, but I still don't know if I liked it or not. I hold on to all Nintendo 1st party games I buy, but I've considered letting this go in the past. It's short and it's pretty easy (IMO). Rent it unless you can find it for < $10

I'd pick it up used. It's inexpensive used and is a good game. We haven't finished it yet, but have been having fun with it.

Limited collection and you found Mario Tennis?!?! Bastard!

I saw RE1 redo for $15 at Sears, didn't buy it. Don't care about it at all, but haven't seen it in awhile, and was hoping for RE4.
 
[quote name='bigdaddy']Limited collection and you found Mario Tennis?!?! Bastard!
[/QUOTE]

Mario Power Tennis isn't difficult to find used at Gamestops around here. In fact I bought a complete copy of it the other day from one. Unfortunately the case proved to be in worse shape than I was expecting - a puncture was covered by a sticker and the disc looks pretty scratch, but the game plays fine and the manual is in good shape. I wish I'd been more careful about inspecting the box, but I'm still happy, especially since I paid for it with store credit made from Sears-To-GS flips that reduced the actual cost to about 1/3 of the sticker price. Another GS had two copies (both complete). In fact I've seen complete copies of the game at every Gamestop I've been to recently, which is 5 or 6 of them. So check your local GS's.
 
My GC collection is much smaller than you guys- but some of my favorite games period are on GC- the GC was one of my most favorite consoles ever actually, despite that many didn't like it.

Zelda: Wind Waker
Zelda: Twilight Princess
Mario Power Tennis
Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door- one of my all-time favorites
Metroid Prime
Metroid Prime 2- still have to play through this one
Animal Crossing- it was fun going back to my town after a 2+ year break, been playing pretty regular for the past year or so now :)
Beyond Good & Evil (tracked this one down at a GS about 20 miles away.. according to their website it was only one of a very few within a 50 or 100-mile radius)- still have to play through this one
Super Monkey Ball 2- I didn't finish this but my friends did years ago when I lent them my GC... so I have nearly all the unlockables
Viewtiful Joe- never finished it but I might someday... hard game!
Super Smash Bros. Melee- Disc only as I literally found this in the grass one day. Never really liked the smash bros games so have only played maybe 20 minutes total.
Game Boy Player

Am looking to pick up Super Mario Sunshine through Goozex, maybe also Mario Kart too.

Not true. For the previous gen cycle, N64, PS1, and Dreamcast games were around for years after their systems died off. Heck, I didn't get my Dreamcast until 2005 and I was still able to find games for it at EB Games and Game Crazy even then.

The difference this time is that all three consoles are backwards compatible. There are a ton of people with Wiis who didn't have GameCubes, and odds are they'll want to catch some of the blockbuster titles they missed out on.

It isn't hard to find, but it's still expensive and probably will be until the inevitable Wii version of Mario Tennis comes out.

I've been quite fortunate in that most of the games I've bought, I've gotten at good prices imo. I got viewtiful joe and metroid prime for 6.99 at Kmart. mario kart I got at a flea market new for 5.00, smash bros I picked up new at a flea market for 8. mario tennis i picked up on ebay for 25. better than paying 40 at gamestop. and I got Lego star wars II for 11 new but with a damaged case and cover art. I ordered 10 cases from nintendo, downloaded the cover scan from covergalaxy hopped on over to kinkos and had it printed out for 1.20.
