So, I've recently been ebaying and going through Amazon to pick up Gamecube games. Now I already have a pretty decent collection. I've got Super Mario Sunshine, The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, Mario Kart: Double Dash, Chibi Robo, Sonic Mega Collection, and Super Smash Bros. Melee etc.. Now I did of course sell some my gamecube and some other games way back when. Gone are my DK Bongos and Donkey Konga and Jungle Beat games. And I also sold my Metroid Prime 1 & 2 games as I picked up the trilogy on Wii.

But what would I buy? I said to myself. I missed out on quite a lot of titles back when. Well I picked up a couple games on the cheap!

1, 2, 3- Viewtiful Joe 1, 2, and Red Hot Rumble- Price Paid- $45 for all 3

 

I missed out on Joe and his adventures back in the day. I always meant to get into the series of games, but never did. Heck I even watched the TV series. I'm not sure why I never went and got it. Then again...I was pretty strapped for cash back then. Now that I got the games I can't wait to give them a Henshin-a-go-go baby!

4. James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing- Price Paid- $5

 

I love Bond. I enjoyed Goldeneye even though I sucked at it. I love the movies. Bond is awesome. I bought Nightfire, but missed out on this one somehow. It's much better than Nightfire due to Pierce Brosnan actually voice acting alongside many of the main Bond staples at the time. We're talking Judi Dench as M, John Cleese as Q, Willem Dafoe and Heidi Klum are the villains. And the game is fun as heck!

5. Gun- Price Paid- $5

Gun is a western style game where you play as Cole White a cowboywho done got himself mixed up in a bad situation. He's made enemies in a corrupt town ran by a corrupt mayor. It's a classic western plot with horses, guns, bar fights, and blood. It was essentially Activision's answer to Red Dead Revolver and was made by the great folks at Neversoft. It also features voice talent from Thomas Jane and Ron Perlman

Now there are some other titles I would like to pick up and they aren't as cheap. Games like Eternal Darkness, Skies of Arcadia, Metal Gear Solid, Ikaruga, etc. are some top contenders for expensive games ranging between $50-$90. OOF! My Wallet would hurt from that! Anyways, That is it for my Gamecube grabs! Join me tomorrow and I'll discuss my latest atrocities I picked up throughout the year from the Wii Bargain Bin!

GAH! GET IT AWAY! MY EYES! MY EYES!

I'm still mad I traded in Luigi's Mansion. Yes, I beat it first, but I want it again. It's like $50 now.

I never got Luigi's Mansion either. Wish I did! One of the few Nintendo titles I missed out on!

I have viewtiful joe, but i still need a good controller for my gamecube. The one that came w the system has a bad analog stick and the yobo wireless has a hit or miss R button.

Mine is pretty messed up. My C stick is all ripped up and the cushioned part of the thumbstick isn't on it anymore. Nothing but hard plastic now... had to tape it up because of he jagged pints on it.

One GameCube game I recommend is Kirby's Air Ride.

I unfortunately sold my copy a long time ago. I'm definitely in the hunt for it again. I had a lot of fun with it, but it was one of those "what was I thinking selling this moments"

Personally I think Kirby's Air Ride was better than Mario Kart: Double Dash.

Ive never played a Viewtiful game!

You definitely should! I'm playing the first right now and it's super fun!
