I'd been wanting to make a NW Collection thread for a while. Did you guys know that GameCube used game prices have been shooting up a lot lately? Heck, all Nintendo cartridge-based systems too. It seems like older games are becoming very desirable now to people who grew up with 'em. The GCNGB trolls are eating their words, lemme tell ya!
Also, to those of you who followed my (ShadowCattivvi's) advice back then and bought
Skies of Arcadia Legends, you're welcome! You have a game worth 200 bucks!
Check out
pricecharting.com for an up-to-date look at what Nintendo games have been going for on eBay lately--you might be surprised. We all know that
EarthBound still commands a high price, but triple-digit prices for
Paper Mario 64,
Thousand-Year Door, the DS
Dragon Quests,
Ghost Trick,
Eternal Darkness,
Pikmin 2,
Conker, and
Mega Man 5? And that's just scratching the surface.
I spent a couple hours inventorying my own collection in that site, which you can see
here! You guys should post your own! It's pretty interesting seeing all this stuff actually increase in value compared to, say, music CDs and DVDs/Blu-Rays.
It does seem that the most valuable stuff is over two generations old, since Wii and Wii U games still show up regularly in Walmart and bargain bins. But I can easily see them being the new big thing in a decade when kids who grew up with those systems will want a copy of Fortune Street or Pikmin 3 on its native console.
What are your most valuable games? And will any of you sell me
Jack Bros. for Virtual Boy? :p
