This used to be a list of notable cheap Gamecube games at GameStop. I've removed it since I am no longer able to keep it accurately updated. Feel free to lock this thread if necessary.

Another way to find cheap titles:

http://www.gamestop.com/browse/search.aspx?Ns=Price%7c0&N=146

That link will show all Gamecube games and accessories, from cheapest to most expensive. Then you can use the store locator to see if it's available near you. :)

The prices -should- be the same in-store and online, but your mileage may vary, as usual.

I'd mention some others I discovered that don't appear on the website because they're out of stock, but every time I mention cheap GameCube games and Gamestop in the same sentence on this forum, all hell seems to break loose.

Too bad. :D

The list has been updated - I looked through the GameStop site and listed the stuff marked between 99 cents (they're all football games) and $5.99 that stood out to me.

Darn. I bought Viewtiful Joe 2 a few weeks ago, but then again it was only $5... Ah well. Perhaps if I can ever find Megaman Anniversary Collection I'll get it.

Mostly....meh. When will they stop beating around the bush and give us a serious sale. If they all wanted is more space, they should put the PS2 games on sale, because they take up at least 1/3 of store space. So whats the hold up besides the penny-pinchers fearing the bottom-line?

(Also, Charlie's Angels is $2.99, but AVOID THE GAME AT ALL COSTS unless you're going for a complete GCN collection or something equally hardcore.)

I own it. I'M THAT HARDCORE. :P

They're not likely to reduce PS2 games too much as long as 100-200K systems are still being sold per month. It's not going to be a dead system for quite a while.

I bought a brand-new set of Donkey Konga bongos in box for $2.99 today. They're not available online but B&M if you can find them and they're cheaper than the $3.99 used loose sets.

They dropped NCAA Basketball 2k3 down to 4.99, if there is one available in your area and you don't pick it up, you must not like money because the last two I sold went for $76 (around ncaa tourney time) and $65.

Yeah, I couldn't find a copy of NCAA 2K3 within 100 miles of me, but luckily, I already own it. ;)

Everytime I sell one I seem to find another one so with me currently selling my only copy (sorry for the plug but anyone can feel free to PM me if interested) so I'm bound to find one soon after I move.

90% of those games is sold for $40+ here.
Baten Kaitos second hand goes for $45...it's so funny to watch you lot complain that $3 for a GC game is expensive...okay it's not funny, it makes my cry :bawling:
With what I've spend this week on GC games I'd have SNES/N64 and GC full collections in the US. LOL

Where do you live? I'm just curious...

The Netherlands.
While in the US the prices take a dive over here they skyrocket.
Games like Baten Kaitos and Paper Mario drop a bit in price but are still between 40$ and 60$. Common GC games go for 15-20$.

Problem is, I can order games online from Gamestop for $2,99-9,99 each, but the shipping is $19,99 and we pay tax on imported goods that are above a value of 30$...
I don't know how often Gamestop items get picked out in customs, but I'm guessing a lot, like Amazon.

Freestyle Street Soccer and Aggresive Inline are pretty cheap too, $3.99 I believe.

Unfortunately all the Gamecube games I want are no where to be found on that list. Hopefully that list will one day include:

Ikaruga
Fight Night Round 2
Star Wars: Rougue Squadron 2
Star Wars: Rougue Squadron 3
Star Wars: Bounty Hunter regular and limited editions
Legend of Zelda/Metroid Prime hybrid

Oh well. Maybe some day.

I got my Ikaruga at a GS... back in 2005, when it was still $19.99 used (I also took advantage of a B2G1 sale). Wish I could have found Cubivore at a GS back then... I don't remember the exact price it was going for at the time, but it would have been under $10 - now it goes for $24.99.
