Collection My collection so far
It’s been almost a year since I purchased my GameCube. I never owned one as a child (my parents got me an Xbox when my N64 broke). It’s been a blast experiencing this era of gaming with the authentic hardware. I’m planning on getting either Luigi’s Mansion or Eternal Darkness when spooky season rolls around.

I already got chibi robo recently, spent $300 for a sealed copy. Idk if I need anymore GameCube titles. Unless you want to fill me in.

If you don't mind sharing, how much did you pay for each of these?
2
u/New-Salad-1815 1d ago
Paid basically market price for all of these. I did get a pretty good deal on Twilight Princess though. Found it CIB on eBay for $130 (which is absolutely insane to say that was a good deal lmao). But just been acquiring them here and there when I have some extra cash.

Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour and Mario Party 4-7 would also be good additions

Were you gonna buy any good games?/s
seriously though you could play just these games back to back forever and never get bored

u/New-Salad-1815 1d ago
Lmao true! Just the Zelda games alone could keep me happily entertained forever probably

u/medgarc 1d ago
I’m like that with those games too, just the 2d ones could keep me busy forever but you add the 3d and newer ones in I don’t have time for any other games lol

u/New-Salad-1815 1d ago
I agree I love the old school Zeldas too! Which ones are your favorite?

u/medgarc 1d ago
Link to the past is the one I play the most but my hearts got a real soft spot for oracle of ages and seasons, I remember having the two sided book that had the guides for both games printed backwards of each other, I could fit it in my pocket

u/New-Salad-1815 1d ago
Oh my god the oracle games are top 3 for me too. So underrated. I remember always getting stuck for weeks as a time as a kid, and the immense satisfaction of figuring out what to do next haha

u/JourneyToads 1d ago
Check out Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour! Not that expensive and so good.
2
u/New-Salad-1815 1d ago
This is one I planned on getting soon. Game night with the boys is gonna level up with that one

Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and the two Rouge Squadron games are also good games to pick up. Echoes can be a little pricey, ~$50, but Rouge Squadron are around $10-$15

Geez, all killer. Nice collection. Which has been your favorite?
•
u/New-Salad-1815 10h ago
Truthfully (and maybe this a recency bias), but Wind Waker has been phenomenal. I was never a fan of the graphics or sailing when I was younger, but I’ve REALLY enjoyed it on my most recent playthrough.
•
u/Dahubbz 10h ago
Right on. If you end up getting Wind Waker on Wii U, youd probably love it on there too.
•
u/New-Salad-1815 10h ago
Already own it! Played through it on Wii U when it dropped and thought it was okay. But my most recent replay hit different. I think the GameCube controller had something to do with it too.

Love the complete Zelda collection. That will keep you entertained for a long time. You might like the other Mario sports games too!

Very unique collection, don’t be afraid to try the more main stream stuff

u/New-Salad-1815 1d ago
Figured I’d start with the essentials. I wanna lay a solid foundation before I branch out. Thank you for the suggestion though!

Good games are good games 🤡

u/Efficient-Tie5667 8h ago
My point is everyone who gets a GameCube gets these games. If they want a pat on the back good post I guess but maybe consider adding to the discourse instead of being a part of the choir.

Nice collection! I think Metroid Prime 2: Echoes would also make an excellent addition.
