Hey all

I was out shopping today, and I came accross a store selling gamecube games. All the games were at a reduced price of $9.97. The more notable games they had are, Zelda: Wind Waker (x6), Pikmin 2 (x6), Mario Kart :double Dash (x2), and Metroid Prime: Echoes (x2). All games are the original Black label(I know how some people are crazy for the black label) and sealed. I went ahead and bought all the Wind Wakers, because I thought they'd be the most desirable.

My question is, should I go back tomorrow and buy the rest of the games? I have never ever bought games before with the intention of making a profit. However the opportunity has never presented itself to me before. So, do you think this is a wise decision?

I know Pikmin 2 would go for a decent amount on eBay sealed, I think about as much as it retailed for when it came out but at least $40 (haven't looked into for awhile).

Mario Kart :double Dash sealed Non Player's Choice, I'm not sure what it's worth but surely more then $10 easily.

Metroid Prime: Echoes probably the least of the 3 you left behind but I'm sure even that would be worth at least $20 (maybe more I'm just guessing really) if you sold it online sealed and it was Non Player's Choice.

Edit - I just noticed that you are from Canada which I didn't take into consideration I was thinking in US dollars.

Yeah, I don't think you'll kill on any of those, but I think you could turn a profit very easily. I agree, the Metroid games would probably be the low-dollar of the group, with Pikmin bringing the most.

Even metroid 2 would pull over $20. definitely buy all of them. Zelda is the most expensive of the bunch. Congrats on the finds :)

The Canadian dollar is pretty much equal to the US dollar nowadays. Sad but true.

They will probably be worth less if they are the Canadian versions though. Generally collector's don't like having french all over their cases.
