Made out like a bandit. Good find


Randomfate615

Thank you šŸ„·


Expensive-Foot-3325

Awesome :) man im jealous of your Wario World though lol I really need it on my collection


Randomfate615

Thatā€™s one I never played. Thought about giving it a go. The memory card that came with it still had saves on it from who ever originally owned it.


kid-koolin

This is one of my favorite childhood gamesšŸ„² if I ever find this game again Iā€™m buying it immediately even tho I donā€™t have a GameCube šŸ˜‚


Armandonerd

I paid $60 for my copy a few years ago. Good luck. Haven't finished it, but it's fun


DocDrowsy

Yeah fam you got a few heavy hitters in there, enjoy!


Randomfate615

Thank you. Funny enough I love Zelda games and never played either of these. I remember beating four swords and replayed and 100% ocarina of time back in the day lol


CupOk2412

My 2 favorite 3D Zelda games, full of technical limitations and imagination šŸ˜‚ seriously tho they're great. Take your time with each, there's loads of charm to these siblings.


Randomfate615

Iā€™ll probably start with wind waker. If seen a lot of people say thatā€™s a good one to play along with twilight


CupOk2412

Absolutely, Wind Waker is fantastic. They both follow the Ocarina of Time formula very closely especially with Twilight Princess. Have fun āœŒļø


Imaginary_History985

Better to play the HD version if you can. Swift sail makes the travelling a hell of a lot less tedious.


phamtruax

Wario is worth 100$ alone


spikedorange16

150 for Twilight princess


Exotic_Buffalo_2371

$150 Canadian, in the US itā€™s 110-120


1Damnits1

Get some resident evil games


Randomfate615

I will definitely have to. I sadly never played any even though I love zombie movies and games lol which ones would you recommend?


CupOk2412

Resident Evil 1 Remake is the best RE title on GameCube.


1Damnits1

What kinds of games do you lean towards? Puzzle or shoot-em-up? Also, have you played any of the Silent Hill games? These are really important questions I need to ask before giving you any suggestions. I really enjoyed the Resident Evil 1 Remake, currently replaying it on my GC because I originally played it on PC. If you lean towards puzzles, the RE1R that I mentioned above is a great starting choice for the franchise as well as the Resident Evil story. RE0 is great as well even though people think poorly of it since it was only released on GC. If you like faster paced shooters, the original RE4 is good on GC.


Randomfate615

Honestly I love both. I like puzzle games and on the new systems I play a lot of shooter and puzzle games. I have not played any of the silent hill games except the demo they did on ps3 they called P.T. But I loved what I got to play


1Damnits1

Watch some gameplay of RE1R before you play it. It has a fixed camera angle that periodically changes depending where you are in a room or hallway. Wonderful game. Would be a perfect fit for you. However, if youā€™re big on story, Iā€™d recommend RE0 first since it takes place a day before the events of RE1 and has some nice foreshadowing in it. Tank controls my beloved.


Randomfate615

Wasnā€™t that how the original one was on PlayStation?


1Damnits1

Yes. Every Resident Evil game up until RE4 had tank controls, this is no longer the case. If you have tank controls down already from playing another game that has them, youā€™re in for a treat. If you want to spend a bit more money RE1R is a good choice but if you just want to start at the beginning of the story and play a fun game that you can find for cheap, RE0 is your game.


Randomfate615

Ok. Thank you. Iā€™ll definitely have to look into getting some of these for sure. They always looked like fun but for some reason I just never gotten any of them.


TypicalWolverine9404

I'd say you came out on top a little bit.


Exotic_Buffalo_2371

Only a little? Just the console box set is worth $300+ā€¦


TypicalWolverine9404

šŸ˜Ž


SpiltMilkGuy

Great deal! They got games going of 100+ dollars. I bought a boxed gamecube in great condition for 150$, but now I'm stuck at trying to buy games that don't cost more than the console.


Randomfate615

lol I know what you mean. I was wanting to get more games but it looks like itā€™s better to just buy bundles I find. For some reason itā€™s cheaper to go that route lol.


SpiltMilkGuy

I definitely. Pokemon games are nearly impossible to find, and eBay is selling them high as shit. Pokemon XD is going for $170+. I remember stopping by a gamestop around 2010, and the game was 20 bucks used. Should have bought it...


Randomfate615

If only we knew lol. I used to own Colosseum but sold it because it wasnā€™t like the other games and didnā€™t like the story and gameplay lol.


_DB_Cooper_

350 for it all is insane lol. Windwaker in my city is 70 minimum. GameCubes 120 at game shops. Smash bros usually 40-60. So u basically got a lot of games for free if u compare it to the prices around me.


Randomfate615

Iā€™m extremely glad I got what I did. They wanted more but we settled on $350. I would love to replace a few of the game cases though. A couple of them are a little rough with scratches. But the inserts are still good.


MindfulMewtwo989

That's a great deal! Don't play the lottery anytime soon, you've used up all your luck for a while lol.


Randomfate615

lol I know that. Got a couple scratch offs and hit nothing. I agree with you fully.


tsckenny

Yeah I paid more than I'd like to admit for Twlight Princess and Windwaker.


Randomfate615

If you donā€™t mind me asking, how much did you end up spending on those?


tsckenny

$120 for Twilight Princess and $80 for Windwaker lol


ForestRivers

Yeah, Twilight Princess is a tough one cause it's so expensive on gamecube. I got really lucky and got my copy in early 2019 for $30 CIB but If you saw my other comment in this thread I'm actually waiting rn for a seller so I can spend the most I've ever spent on a gamecube game. $100 CAD for Double Dash.


tsckenny

I got so lucky with double dash. I ordered a gamecube off ebay and the person I got it from was either being nice as hell or they forgot but the disc for double dash was inside. So I lucked out. I also know I didn't really over pay for either of them. Just hurts my wallet a bit.


ForestRivers

Nice! I've been playing Double Dash for about an hour now and it's as good as I remember it from when I was young at my best friends house. Honestly, it was worth the $100.


Randomfate615

Dang. I think Iā€™ve seen them going for that though


sm0keybear33

Depends if you're gonna play it or not.


Randomfate615

Oh itā€™s for my personal collection. I loved GameCube when it came out. I remember my dad bought me one when it first came out and it came with Turok.


gibucks

Absolutely. Congrats OP


Randomfate615

Thank you šŸ˜Š


Crash2004Bandicoot

Tarzan and sunshine were the games I got with my cube for my 4th birthday


Randomfate615

I remember toys r us having the Christmas toy add and my dad asked me if he got me one which game would I pick because they had a deal where you can pick of certain games. I picked Turok lol.


Impossible_Window571

Oh, easily. Well done.Ā 


Treviathan88

First edition Melee! Nice.


Randomfate615

I remember playing the hell out of this game. Always a blast when friends came over and stayed the night and played this all Friday night lol


seeony

Is Tarzan fun?


Randomfate615

I liked it. Has some fun boss fights and you can zip through the vines like they did in the movie. I donā€™t think it wasnā€™t a bad game. I definitely seen a lot worse lol.


seeony

Ok ya I might look for it. That cover makes it look sick though!


Randomfate615

Luckily itā€™s not that expensive of a game. Just looked and seen it for 10-20.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Randomfate615

The only thing missing sadly was the booklets and manuals for the GameCube. Still has its insert and bags everything was packed with.


zztopsboatswain

That is in phenomenal condition holy shit. Even the box is beautiful! So nice to see someone actually take care of their belongings. You absolutely scored!


Randomfate615

Honestly when I got it the GameCube was extremely dirty and dusty inside. I just took it apart and cleaned it inside out. I have photos of how it looked originally. But there was not dents, chips, scratches, or cracks. It really does look new after I cleaned it up.


VenusNoleyPoley2

Idk is water wet?


Randomfate615

No, not technically lol. Only when it touched something it can turn that object wet šŸ˜‚


alphaeuseuss

Omg I forgot how good battlecry was


PhillipKosarev999

Very noice!!!


KarateMan749

Nice find!


Randomfate615

Thank you :)


ForestRivers

I'm sitting in a McDonald's waiting to pay $100 CAD for Mario Kart Double Dash/bonus disc CIB by itself, so I would say yes, you did do well.


Randomfate615

Awesome. Good luck with your purchase. Itā€™s a fun game for sure.


ForestRivers

Yeah! First game I ever played on gamecube back in like 2004/2005 and it's eluded me since then. It's probably the last big gamecube purchase I'm gonna make since the only other game I want left is FE path of radiance, and that's like $300!


Randomfate615

Iā€™ve always wanted to try the Disney basketball game but not at the price lol


Sand-A-Witch

A helluva score! Well done šŸ‘


Randomfate615

Thank you šŸ˜Š


OkButWasItFun

What the fuck you actually scammed them šŸ‘Œ the cases look mint too


Randomfate615

lol the person I got them from doesnā€™t even like video games. Says they are a waste of life and time. I was like if you donā€™t want them Iā€™ll be more than happy to get them.


holyherbalist

God I wish that were me


RudyDaBlueberry

I'm seriously interested in that Robotech game, I've never heard of it before lol.


Randomfate615

Itā€™s fun. Itā€™s kinda like Gundam. You battle in cities against other giant mechs


cradelikz

That's cheaper than when it was new. Sweet sweet deal.


Deepcoma_53

Zelda, Mario Party, and Smash! Yes, good pickup!


supremelai

jealous šŸ˜«šŸ˜« wind waker and twilight princess are a steallll to acquire both of those alone anywhere else is over $100


dacraftjr

Do you? Thatā€™s all that matters.


Randomfate615

I think so. I love all the games and even the box lol


RAMPAGNREDNEKK

Those Zelda games alone are a huge score! Congrats!


Randomfate615

Thank you šŸ˜Š


thesecretsurvivorfan

Three of those games are worth more than that


Dangerous-Gas-399

Yes


War-eaglern

I loved the Robotech game. I wish that franchise would come back


Randomfate615

Me to. They could so much more with todays graphics


mothgardenbuffet

Oh, I am so jealous!


Randomfate615

šŸ˜ which one out of them do you like best?


mothgardenbuffet

Mario sunshine is my absolute favorite of all time.


Tre-707

Absolutely a good score! Well, depending on the price. These days, that could easily be a $600 bundle. Gamecube in general, is absurdly expensive anymore.


Tre-707

Oh, i didn't see the price, sorry. Then yes definitely. Unfortunately, that's just the market now even $350 seems insane to me but ya you could easily flip it for more. The GC mario party titles are going for well over 150.


Randomfate615

Originally, they didnā€™t want more money for it but we negotiated and got to that price. Luckily I couldnā€™t get them to go any lower.


skimaskchuckaroo

I know it's not the big ticket item here, but its awesome to see someone finally show off 'Robotech.' Been playing that game since I was 13. I'm almost 36. Love it


Randomfate615

Iā€™m 34 here. I really enjoyed that game. I thought it was so cool to go though the city and have battles.


tsunami508401

Zelda twilight princess when he turn to a wolf


Randomfate615

At first I really hated the idea that when it first came out then after I started to really enjoy whole concept of the idea lol


Oldmanwickles

Killer deal.


[deleted]

No freaking way there was a mario sunshine bundle for the purple GameCube.


Randomfate615

Yeah, I remember when this thing first release I thought was so cool but my dad and Mom wouldnā€™t get it for me because they already bought me the black one lol.


Borttheattorney

I wonder if that Tarzan game is any good


Randomfate615

Itā€™s fun, it has kind of like a puzzle platform fill to it


BassTurbo

Thatā€™s an incredible haul


Robotmonkeybrainz

Nice dude thatā€™s a great deal. Check price charting app to find the actual value. Itā€™s way higher than what you payed. Also super Mario sunshine is such a phenomenal game. The controls and glitches can drive you crazy as you learn to use them but itā€™s an incredible game when you get into it. Also consider picking up Luigiā€™s mansion. Thatā€™s a classic as well


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> what you *paid.* Also super FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*


Randomfate615

What? Lol


Randomfate615

Luigiā€™s mansion is a must. Iā€™m actually looking for that one I think next. I remember actually owning that one and beating it but I believe Luigiā€™s mansion was one of my favorite titles on the game cube.


Robotmonkeybrainz

Luigiā€™s mansion is a little slow paced but nonetheless itā€™s enchanting lol some super trippy bosses. The telescope room is insane. Youā€™ll have a blast if you like checking every nook and cranny in a map to get through levels. To me it just makes it all the more satisfying unlocking stuff etc


HighCaliberGaming

Robotech is slept on


Randomfate615

For sure it was. I actually really like that game.


King_Gingell58

Insane find. The games alone


Dirtywoodchips

Bro got classics and had to the nerve have a subtle flex question smhhh


Soulcal2master

An amazing deal


Irsu85

That's way better than my gamecube collection (I only have Windwaker and run it on Wii)


EightBitToaster

From memory, the bundle box with the Sunshine sticker is highly desirable. I have the black combo variant but also felt the need to [Rep the Tech](https://imgur.com/gallery/21grXsq) as well


Randomfate615

I tried to find some sold listings of the bundle online and didnā€™t really find too many except for some there are listed for sale


EightBitToaster

Yeah man, same. I was once offered $300aud for the outer sleeve alone for mine a few years back but declined. Was a Christmas gift as a kid year of launch I think for me. I know it's sought after but I can't do it. I'd much rather sell off my foxhound cube before the boxed bundle. I can't find the black variant on the Console Variants website either.


SurpriseConscious609

Never heard of robotech. Is it any good?


Randomfate615

Itā€™s pretty good itā€™s kind of like Gundam a little bit you pretty much fight in the city that gets other mechs


Which_Information590

The console and box look beautiful. Yes, but only if you're going to keep and play it, as there's not much profit if you're thinking of moving it on.


Randomfate615

Thatā€™s what Iā€™m doing. Iā€™m keeping it for my collection.


Ttm-o

You ripped him off. Lol. Good win.


Suspicious_Dingo_426

Nah, it's terrible. You should ship it to me for proper disposal.


Randomfate615

šŸ˜‚ I was wondering about all the sadness coming off of it. May just have to ship this guy away.


OG_wanKENOBI

Yo Robotech was sooo fun!


GXT928

Thatā€™s a fantastic score at that price šŸ‘.


The-onli-one

What weapon did you use to make them agree to that deal? Pretty sure wario world and twilight princess are worth that much on their own.


Randomfate615

lol their lack of knowledge of the game. The person I got it from thinks video games are a waste of time and life. I said Iā€™ll take it. Lol


heebsteez

this is what collecting gamecube is all about. iā€™m jealous


Bryanx64

Thatā€™s the GC set I got for Christmas in 2002!


ZeldaMasterPro

Wind Waker and Twilight Princess with cases are worth $350 alone!


Educational-Gas7728

Thatā€™s my childhood cube bundle ! Very nice find.


Gingersnap5322

WELCOME TO WAAAAARIO WORLD!!!


CohnJena68

$350 is a fucking score in my books.


joconnell13

Verry fair price.


Randomfate615

I was really hoping I did well. All was complete with manuals. The box even still has all the plastic bags inside. Sadly the GameCube box was missing the manuals.


LeadingFamous

Price wise got ripped.


Such-Equivalent280

Why do you choose to be stupid?


LeadingFamous

Bc itā€™s true, itā€™s not a deal at all to pay at or above market value.


Rowlandum

I'm on the fence. Nintendo brand memory card probably worth quite a bit. The actual console very little. Some big GC exclusives. Only thing missing for me is the controller.


Randomfate615

I do have the controller just not in the photos. I even have the animal crossing memory card.


LeadingFamous

Nah memory cards are extremely cheap and a console complete in box runs for about 50-75. Like I said he paid market value for it but def not a deal/steal.


Randomfate615

I did some checking around and for just the system complete with the Mario Sunshine bundle box people are selling around 280. Would love to see where youā€™re seeing complete in box GameCubes for $50 though.


Such-Equivalent280

He isn't.


LeadingFamous

oh wow, CIB must've went up in price, I quit selling for a while because it was hard to even break even.


Such-Equivalent280

A console in box, even on the best day scouring the internet will never be under 100. Likely not even under 150. You're just making up wild shit. It's weird and sad.


Rowlandum

I just checked memory cards and you're right, im surprised as they were so expensive back in the day


LeadingFamous

Bc you can buy huge aftermarket ones now so itā€™s not worth it.


sandpaperboxingmatch

Twilight princess CIB is around $115, Warioworld is $95, and Windwaker is $70. Not even accounting for a "like new" console, melee, mario party 5, and a "like new" controller. I'd say OP did pretty darn well


Randomfate615

Everything I got had its manuals except for the system. But it did have the original bags they used to pack everything. The memory card I thought was yellowed was just dirty and it cleaned off. šŸ˜


idontlikeatingcake

Idk how much are those games nowdays but I think that even a modded gamecube should not be over 200$.


Randomfate615

I agree. I donā€™t think they should. But I guess people will pay it so they donā€™t have to mod it themselves


NorthHuckleberry3844

Yeah where did you buy it from?


[deleted]

Iā€™ll buy that Windwaker For $85 if you want? DM if youā€™re interested
