GameCube Score/Brag Thread
« on: February 03, 2010, 10:34:47 PM »
Now that the GameCube has been dead and gone for awhile, I'm finding some great deals on stuff.  I scored a copy of Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes for about $20. :)

And, finally, added this sweet piece to my collection:


What GCN finds have you made recently?

Is Medal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes a rare game or something?

When did Nintendo release that combo pack? Are there any others?

It's supposed to be one of the more-rare GCN titles.  Take this with a grain of salt though: http://www.rarityguide.com/gamecube_view.php
I've wanted it for awhile and just lucked in to a great price on it...

As for this combo - I honestly don't know for sure.  Friend tells me he thinks it was from a System Bundle released at some point, but I don't recall such a bundle being released...

Wow, that's pretty cool.

Well I got some Zelda Collector's Disc which came packaged with the GC for a while from a friend. Supposedly it's rare in PAL regions, but I got it for free off him.

Yeah, Twin Snakes is pretty rare here, but I bought it when it was first released so it's hardly a bargain, but if I sold it I would get twice what I paid for it.

Of the top 20 on Rarity Guide I have 6 of them.  That's pretty cool since I bought all of them at the time of release and wasn't really trying to get something rare at the time. :)

Wow, I actually have a few of those, including GG&E, Ocarina of Time/Master Quest, and MMX Collection. I used to have the Mario Kart w. bonus disk, but I got rid of it because I never played it anymore. The bonus disk had some mildly entertaining demos.
This would be my PSN Trophy Card, but I guess I can't post HTML in my Signature. I'm the pixel spaceship, and I have nine Gold trophies.

Lets see I have Skies of Arcadia Legends. I have the Metroid Prime and Prime bonus disk. I had DDR Mario Mix but I gave it to someone for Christmas.I gave my nephew Megaman X Collection for his Birthday one year.I did preorder Windwaker and got the Master quest disk but it got stolen a few years back.
Most of these I saw at Gamestop the other day.Mainly the Zelda collections.

I recall picking Twin Snakes up for about $20 at Wal-Mart years ago. I don't think it was part of the Player's Choice lineup, but it dropped pretty heavily there in that last year or two of the GameCube's life. I think you overpaid for it, considering.

I don't have any of those twenty. That's a shame, because there are a few on there that I'd like to try, but I wouldn't want to pay much for them. And I really want that Mario DDR game...

If you have something really rare it could mean big bucks if you were to sell it on ebay.
