There just aren't enough moments in the day to rectify the wrongs of the past.

They are like 300$ on Amazon.


Because nobody bought them, and now they're rare.

> Has black gamecube

> Hell yeah

I knew keeping worthless junk one day would pay off in the end.

Inappropriate. Went a little to far with the butt hole tearing.

"Retro" gaming is expensive.

Sorry, mang, but it's only because the OP was looking at a brand new one. If it's been unboxed, it's worth $60 at best. I also want to add that the Gamecube was a pretty good console overall, and sold more than you might think.

Good to hear, the Gamecube is the bees' knees.

I own a purple one. This has convinced me to go find it.

I've got a fan!

Because people aren't smart enough to realize there's no practical difference between a new and used console.

Then why are new ones so expensive?
While the Gamecube itself isn't rare, unboxed ones are.

Because people aren't smart enough to realize there's no practical difference between a new and used console. Rarity creates demand.

Because they're awesome. Worth every penny.

They haven't been produced in years, so buying anything retro gaming related new is going to cost you. If you want a console to play gamecube games on just buy a Wii.

Well, I know what I'm selling tomorrow.

Take me into your heart! Accept me as your savior! Nail me to the -blam!- cross, and let me be reborn!

Just by a used console. I've have bought plenty of used video game merchandise from Amazon at almost 70% of the price, and the condition is almost new.

  • 01.03.2013 1:14 AM PDT

Probably because it is still in the box?

I wish my gamecube didn't break, i'll probably never get to replay Super mario Sunshine now.

ROM it. I just recently downloaded Wind Waker and did a 100% playthrough of it.

Just get a wii(not the new sits on side version) and buy a gamecube controller and a few gamecube games and you will be happy. There is barely a difference in terms of how the game plays on wii or gamecube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QA9ylIYEW48. See barely any difference, gamecube is slightly faster.

Same thing happened to me, I wanted to buy a gameboy advance and some old pokemon games but that -blam!- is expensive.
