10 $$$ GameCube Games WAY Cheaper On XBOX | GameCube VS XBOX

[@BSNintendo]

I recently picked up Timesplitters 3 on the og X-box. What's crazy is that its $80 cheaper than it is on GameCube/PS2. Absolutely crazy.

[@gametourny4ever627]

I believe there to be 6 main reasons the Gamecube Copies of games go for more than the OG Xbox’s. 1. Some People Prefer the Controller of the Gamecube over the Xbox. I know I do. 2. The Console sold less systems than the Xbox so less copies of games out which leads me to my next point. 3. Those Full set Collectors are driving prices up. The Gamecube Full set is more attainable as it has around 300 less titles to get to complete a set. I believe we will see this same phenomenon down the Road with the Wii U and 360. 4. The entire Gamecube Library can be played on the Wii which is really cheap and easy find and a ton of folks have while not all OG Xbox games are backwards compatible on 360 or the newer consoles. 5. The Gamecube is more reliable working wise than the OG Xbox as it is just a flip top with no loading tray. Also there is no time Save Capacitor destroying the Gamecube inside meanwhile, it is in the Xbox and you have to get that thing removed if you want your console to not stop working. 6. Finally it is Nintendo and everything on their systems always seem to be more expensive for the most part. I myself chose to get that Gauntlet Dark Legacy game on OG Xbox over Gamecube and PS2. Great 4 player Coop Game for Xbox and looks great! Also I picked up Xmen Legends and Xmen Legends 2 on the Xbox. Both great games on all 3 major consoles but run and look the best on the OG Xbox and much cheaper. The Humdinger though is Def Jam Fight for NY. That game is ridiculous on PS2 and Gamecube. It has started to rise on Xbox too. I grabbed that pretty quick. What a fun and great wrestling style game that looks and runs the best on the Xbox and for the best price.

This is a huge reason why I have a huge OG Xbox collection. A lot of the games on Xbox not only look better as the Xbox was superior from a technical standpoint, they sometimes play better, and cost far, far less than GC games. I love the GC but collecting for OG Xbox is so much more fun for me because you can get so much more with your money.

[@NYCJoeBlack]

Keep in mind that the XBOX consoles tend to malfunction due to the motherboard as has been stated by many KZbinrs and owners of the console. However, most of those same games can be played on almost any XBOX system released to-date.

[@zclary923]

@@NYCJoeBlack I own four original xbox consoles so I'm well aware. All the motherboard revisions except for the 1.6 (Final Revision) have an issue with the clock capacitors leaking over time which can over time cause the motherboard to fail if you leave the acidic contents sitting on it. It is however extremely easy to to fix. Removing some screws and pulling it out. Clean it up with a little alcohol and some q-tips. So easy a caveman could do it. Although a lot of these games can be played on more modern Xbox hardware, for me there's no substitute for original hardware and in the case of the OG Xbox firing it up on a proper CRT Television is a nice trip down the nostalgia highway.

[@NYCJoeBlack]

@@zclary923 - I agree in that there is no substitute for playing games on it’s original platform. I purchased the XBOX after it was discontinued although I am not sure if I have the “final version” of the XBOX. How does one know; On the box, serial number, some type of product code, faint design differences on the unit itself, packaging material?

[@Spartan77]

Correct me if I am wrong but aren't Gamecube discs more prone to disc rot. I know my copy of Metal Gear Solid on the GC is not doing so well. The disc surface area artwork is cracking and pealing to the point, I no longer feel safe putting the disc in an enclosed disc system, like the Wii.

[@RetroRivals]

Price point is why I started collecting XBOX over the other consoles. I wanted to be able to try as many games as possible without breaking the bank. Now the more games I play on XBOX the more I love this console. The cherry on top is that it out performs the competition. Now we have over 250 Xbox games in the collection. I’m trying to slow down on collecting for it but there are a lot of exclusive games I still want to play. I might have an addiction lol. Great video!

[@RetroWolf_YT]

Interesting video guys and as far as NCAA College Basketball 2K3 that game is expensive because it is SUPER SUPER rare on the GameCube and there are VERY FEW copies out in circulation. It is actually one of the rarest GameCube games out there. Now the reason for this is because in the middle of this games production run Sega cancelled all 2K games on the GameCube and so very few copies made it to store shelves AND they even pulled copies from the shelves. So as a result very few copies actually made it into the hands of consumers. Whereas on the Xbox version there are a TON of copies out there and it isn't hard to find at all. So that game is certainly a special case.

[@jckorn9148]

For a current gamer wanting to go back and play older consoles, my suggestion is to first get all of the current systems. The best stuff from yesteryear are ported and remade for current hardware. That said, you will break that bank if you go for older Nintendo consoles, sadly. Most of it keeps its value, while Playstation/Xbox is very reasonable to get into. I suggest a PS3 for that generations exclusives, along with the PS1 classics(old school Final Fantasy) And the OG Xbox for the best versions of that generations games.

[@Jaxxon123]

I think what you guys are missing is that, the prices are reflecting the value of the console it's on, not so much the games themselves. GameCube, while not as powerful as the original Xbox, was definitely a wildly popular platform for the people who loved Nintendo, but did not sell as much as PS2 and Xbox. Also something as simple as the novelty of the small discs. There's several reasons why GameCube versions of the games are more highly sought after.

[@autobotstarscream765]

Not to mention that the backwards-compatible successor to the GameCube, the Model 1 Wii, outsold both the GameCube and its library, flooding the market with more "GameCubes" than GameCube games.

That beer sounds freakin incredible! Pretty sure Founders is a national distribution so I am gonna have to track this one down.

In Highschool/College it seemed like everyone had an Xbox, You'd think there would be more nostalgia for it.

[@zclary923]

I think there's nostalgia from us hardcores, but I think Microsoft being more consistent overall in offering backwards compatibility across console generations has lead to the market not being as hot for OG Xbox games as it is for PS2 and Gamecube. Fine by me, makes collecting for the OG Xbox affordable and much more fun.

I can give two reasons why, at least for myself, I prefer to have games that are across all 3 platforms on the gamecube.... As far as actually playing the games, I much much much prefer the gamecube controller over the any of the Xbox controllers. And from a collecting standpoint I am primarily a Nintendo collector that generally only buys games on other platforms that are exclusive to that platform... Just my personal reasons... But great video as always! Cheers!! 🍻

[@Jaxxon123]

Yep, I was in High School with the GameCube. Even though PS2 and Xbox was all the rage, it was just something unique and cool about the GameCube...you'd have to have been there or remember that era. GameCube controller was such a upgrade from the utter trash that was the N64 and its controller. I grew up with NES and SNES, and skipped the N64...couldn't bare it. People love the N64, I though it was shit even back in the 90s. It pretty much doesn't exist to me. GameCube was Nintendo's Badboy era with mature titles, before they went to utter shit again by catering to Grannies and small children with the Wii/Wii U.

[@hepwo91222]

Not familiar with that one, most games on PS2 looked and performed significantly worse than GC or Xbox, but one of the advantages of the PS2 while the games were coming out, many were timed exclusives or just came to other consoles a bit later. Also the XBox I would want if I was to get the game as it likely also plays on 360, possibly XBox One or Series S/X if not now perhaps in the future, where Sony gave up on supporting many old games.

I'm absolutely blown away by the prices on Gamecube. Multiplatform titles like this have no justification to be that pricey. To me, its all due to Nintendo fans who're willing to spend more money than necessary. It's interesting that this comes up though because I'm currently trading out all of my PS2 and GameCube multiplatform games for Xbox versions if they exist. My PS2 library has shrunk a bit this last week because of that. Not only do the Xbox versions play and look better but they're also cheaper, and I definitely like the idea of having the better playing experience while saving some money. The original Xbox and the Xbox 360 have always been known to mostly play games better than their competition, yet both libraries are still very affordable. Everything else in their respective generations is going up or has had a spike in recent time. The OG Xbox at this point is just a ticking time bomb, sooner or later its library is going to explode and I want these games before that happens. There will always be a few outliers and the Gamecube and PS2 still have exclusives, but buy and large the Xbox library is super easy to collect for at the moment so I'm taking the opportunity while I still can.

[@autobotstarscream765]

There's a simple mathematical reason of supply and demand for why GameCube games are so expensive: the GC _and_ its games relatively bombed, but then the market was flooded with millions more GameCubes in the form of the Model 1 Wii's smash hit launch and strong sales, as the Model 1 Wii is backwards-compatible, basically leaving 10 "GameCubes" in the market for every GameCube game.

For me, I just can’t own every console. So I depend on my 360’s backwards compatiblity to play Xbox games and PS3 for PS2 games. Which means if I want to play a game that isn't on that backwards compatiblity list I need to go GameCube. I also prefer the GameCube because it's not emulating the games like the 360 and PS3 do (my PS3 is the software emulation one). That is my unique situation, but it explains why I own some much more expensive B to C tier games on the GameCube rather than the Xbox which I agree tends to play the better.

[@DJ239]

I feel like it's because more people have the GCHD/ other HD solutions for the gamecube now and they want their games for that console. I don't believe there's a solution of the same quality for the original Xbox, you can do component through a converter, but that's a pain in the ass for most people. You can also softmod your xbox and play the games right off the hard drive, but the GC doesn't even have a hard drive.

Haven't got through the video yet, and I haven't checked the prices in a while, but I remember Teen Titans being way more expensive on Xbox. Definitely an outlier though.

[@oscarandrade1643]

Reason being the Xbox version is North American only. Others consoles are all regions.

Original Xbox games never increased price like GameCube and PS2. My Xbox collection is larger than my GC by a lot.

Yesir!!! XBOX is so damn nice to collect for right now. Hopefully it stays that way. Cheers!

[@whatwhatyep]

I'd say there's two reasons. Numbers produced and sold then the nostalgia Nintendo effect. So Glad I collect Xbox and wii only. Some of those Wii titles are moving numbers now.

see you guys on the live stream you well know im there the first thing im going to say is hey ring worm its time to play some tonsil hockey

[@MiguelPerez-cn4ee]

I think Mortal Kombat Deception is more cuz Goro and Shao Kahn are playable characters on GameCube and not on PS2 and Xbox. A GameCube exclusive.

I want to get Turtles 3 on the Cube as it never came out in the UK. If you're selling, let me know! :)

I game I don’t understand is mega man collection x?? Like I bought it new for 12$ on ps2 back in 2014, it’s still that price. Since 2014 it’s been like 60$ for the GameCube though and I don’t think it’s dropped lololol

@@farmingsim9813 LOLOL YOU MADE ME LOOK IT UP!! They’re selling for 90$!!! Go look on the sold on eBay Remember I’m speaking for a new copy. Not used, they were 60$ new in 2014

[@sydescrollerz5963]

It’s probably not just nostalgia. My only guess is it’s probably because the GC versions are easier to play since they can be played on a Wii.

[@GamingOffTheGrid]

Possibly but a decent amount of OG XBox games can be played on every XBOX console that has followed. It's interesting to say the least. Thanks for watching. Cheers!
