What do you guys think of this? I'm seriously considering making him an offer on it.

Well, I'm new here, but old to gaming, so take my advice with a grain of salt. Maybe a whole shaker full. But the SMS controllers sell for $20 each, if you're any good on Ebay. The rest is gravy. I'd go $40 on the lot, for resale. But start @ $20.

I've never heard of the GameCube before. Is it an old game console?

You can have Laserdisc players for $2000! Sweetness! Not a typo, because you can have the entire lot for $5000!

Morons think if you add bootleg games to a system the price must go up.

Where do people get the idea that their old NES is worth so much?

[Tupin]

Storage Hunters. You know because he calls it an NES-001. I guess he didn't watch the whole episode where they said it was worth $10.

You forgot to mention that they're advertising those games as being "Online Enabled" when Microsoft unplugged XBL for original Xbox games.

[SparTonberry]

Well, that is the wording MS used on the cover art.

He's now asking $25 for Wind Waker, even though it looks like he has Twilight Princess.

I thought $25 for Wind Waker seemed high, but checking ebay... what happened?
I don't recall paying very much for a copy at GameStop last year.

But $25 is a good price for Twilight Princess GC, right?
(better than me, who paid GameStop $35 for a copy without the manual)
(I know the Wii version is now $20 new, but thank Nintendo for not including GC controller support in that one, legitimizing owning both versions.)

[Gameguy]

Not gaming related, but weird enough for this thread.

$25 is going rate for Wind Waker now (as you discovered) and a good price for TP (*giggle*) tho not an amazing deal or anything. If I had to hazard a guess as to what happened, I'd say the fact that Gamestop doesn't still carry Gamecube games coupled with the re-release of Ocarina on 3DS is making people want to go back and play some of the older stuff. And unlike Four Swords Adventure, people remember the game fondly. (Seems like Four Swords' price has gone up a little bit too, btw.)
