I Bought A New Sealed GameCube Game From Amazon In 2020 (GameCube Collection Update)

[@DarthG33k]

You need to call out that seller who shipped Baten Kaitos. That's a good job, and they deserve more business!

[@JohnDoe-kv3kd]

That's a person who not only cares about their seller rating but heck the actual product they are shipping. That's most likely a retro collector right there mark my words.

[@David-xn9mu]

I came to the comments specifically to see if anyone had mentioned the bubble wrap seller

[@witapepsi]

Yep, I recently got a game that came with bubble wrap inside and I was confused at first but I realized this was packaged how it should be.

[@NCooper70]

I always put a little scrap of bubble wrap in the case to stop the disc falling off its mount because I know from experience that horrible moment when you realise the disc is rattling around inside and you don’t know if it has been all scratched up. I wish new games came with something inside to stop it falling off, like maybe a manual or something weird like that.

Oh man. I remember when they started to put the labels directly on the insert at Gamestop. Terrible.

[@corey2232]

When I worked there, I knew how annoying it was and made sure my store only put them on the outside of the case on the plastic cover. Also, I had everyone just slide the spine sticker under the plastic, never removing the sticker part from the paper backing. That way no adhesive would touch any of the insert, allowing buyers to just slide it out. Too bad many other stores just didn't care, and also thought of its labels as free advertising. When you or anyone buys that game in the future, they'll always see that damn Gamestop label.

[@EthanGBUK]

In the UK in GAME, you bring up the game to the counter and then they get the copy of it from the shelves behind them, meaning we don't have the stickers on our actual cases

[@carlcarp9592]

We have game world here in Houston, they do that with their shitty stickers and it just heartbreaking.

[@muckersTGN]

Yeah I worked at GAME for a while and that was standard procedure for used games at least. Barcode sticker on the manual and box. For new games the standard would be keeping sealed product behind the counter, but the last one in stock would always be opened and in a drawer.

[@bern9642]

They did that so that when you resell the game, people can tell how much you bought them. But it's an awful practice especially if you're a collector

[@uhhJordann]

I wish Nintendo would rerelease these games on switch these retro dudes hackup the prices

[@JohnDoe-kv3kd]

In general so many rare games are just way overpriced at this point. I remember back in the day I could go to the flea market in the early to mid-2000s and get good quality games cheap. Now there's way too many repros, people aren't willing to let you take them apart to check authenticity and still want outrageous prices. The retro market in general has just completely gotten out of hand. And game companies are letting them, they're not putting new versions out so that the market doesn't get so inflated.

[@poopikins]

@@JohnDoe-kv3kd Yeah with the popularity of the internet the prices are ridiculous now lol You can find some great finds though, but even the game shops I've been too don't really have much in the way of retro stuff. Nothing worth getting anyway. It's all online and expensive

[@Kevin-sl3gk]

That's the negative side of games with hardware DRM. The games aren't preserved, and prices sky rocket as time goes on. Emulation and PC ports is the only true way to keep these games future proof.

Metal arms is criminally underrated one my favs of that gen

[@RisdonX]

Absolutely, definitely one of the best games that has been almost entirely overlooked by the majority of people. The story was amazing, with decent plot and super fun levels + gameplay. The multiplayer was always a blast, and the fact you could make your own modes was so awesome. Definitely one of my personal favorite games. That's not to say it doesn't have its fair share of glitches, they are in fact everywhere. But typically they don't disrupt the game itself (other than going inside walls/outside the map in multiplayer where you become invincible LOL)

[@JohnDoe-kv3kd]

@@RisdonX That's one of those games that would be cool if they brought over like the sphinx one. It's one of those games with a few tweaks could be an absolutely great game.

[@RisdonX]

@@JohnDoe-kv3kd Yes! I've always wanted a remaster of some kind because it has such an amazing potential to do well with the kind of game that it is. Maybe make the multiplayer online to boot. That way you could have a many different game modes like Mils vs. Droids, or just like normal droid pvp. Or maybe a sequel would do. Y'know, the one that was planned to happen in the first place but sadly got cancelled. I would be in absolute shock of any of this would ever be announced, but that sure would be amazing if it did happen.

It's sad how every generation has AT LEAST a dozen great games get overlooked for no reason, and suffer slow sales. One of the sad things about collecting retro software, is you find ignored classics that never got nor will get sequels despite being totally worthy.

Recently I've been enhancing my GameCube (and Wii) games collection. While I've been adding some games that I never played, most of my games were missing their original cases, artwork, and booklets. My mother just threw them away when we moved about a decade ago...It hurts whenever I think about those original cases and booklets being thrown away in the trash! But now, I just started collecting the original cases, booklets, and inserts and making my games complete once again. Looking at the artwork and booklets just brings back such fond memories!!

sadly it's tricky since I think the IP is owned by namco but the games were developped by monolith (which now only cares for xenoblade). But yeah, these games were very good, still prefer the 1st one but origins is very good too. I wish they at least got ported over the Switch at some point.

[@corey2232]

I disliked Origins compared to the first one. The first one had far deeper & more complex combat, whereas the sequel did away with a lot of the nuance & defensive stuff going on in order to simplify things for more audiences. Still enjoyed the story & rest of the game, just not as much as the first entry.

[@slimDaTa]

@@corey2232 Combat was the main reason why I preferred BKO. Whereas the first game was more focused on micromanaging your decks, BKO's combat was more balanced between managing your deck and having to use skill during combat. You are a lot more involved during combat in the second game, which made the process of enemy encounters less repetitive and more bearable. Still, I've finished both games and they are both fantastic!

I love how you were able to get such a good condition American Wasteland, because my Xbox copy that I have in my collection is in awful condition. I have not seen a good condition box for that game on Xbox.

Cell damage looks like a lot of fun. I've always wanted to play skies of Arcadia but never got a chance to play it when I had my gamecube. I remember renting eternal darkness, metal arms glitch in the system and baten kantos as a kid and I wish I could play them again.

There's a lot of these I've heard so much about but never got to play! Would to get ti some of those classics someday

Had I known how valuable Gamecube games would be, I'd never have opened any of them. Even opened, I was surprised to learn how much some of my games are worth.

Baten Kaitos is a MonolithSoft game! I didn't play it until this year (right before they announced the HD remaster too) but man I enjoyed it a ton. But I also love card building RPGs like Chain of Memories so Baten Kaitos was my jam.

I've always loved the Tony Hawk Pro Skater series, and American Wasteland is my favorite hands down.

You can use a blow dryer to heat up glue on stickers and peel them off

Eternal Darkness is my favorite GameCube game and one of my favorite games overall ever. It’s so awesome!
