I'm in Europe as well.

+Twilight Princess. I thought this may be my last chance to buy TP on GC and to play it how it was meant to be played someday, but I did pay the going price for it, £32 at CEX.

I think my list is out of date (I don't even remember posting it), so I'll update it sometime.

Wow, where do you get this stuff!? Usually when stuff is that cheap over here, it's usually because it's either crap, or it's broken!
But if it's not working, preowned or not you can still take it back over there right? They wouldn't get away with that here.

Unfortunately you almost can't find any retro games now. 3 years ago you could walk into a Gamestation in almost every town and choose from a huge selection of retro games going back to Master System most of them for less than £3 each. Now you're lucky if you find PS2 games. Since gaming is increasingly mainstream, things like retro game collecting are being forced out.

I've never understood why the UK doesn't have specialised retro stores. I guess online could be said to be a trade killer but come on, there is nothing that beats browsing actual physical copies. I can't wait to locate Super Potato when I get to Tokyo for this exact reason.

I still got a copy of Viewtiful Joe with all the extra's lying around here, I always heard that this is a very good game for GC (Bought it some weeks ago). Im very eager to know if this all was true, sadly I cant start with it soon because Im still bussy with some other games.

Let me know how it is. I can aquire it for literally the price of a pack of gum, but I'd like to at least know that I'll enjoy it more than said gum.

Given the things I've heard about it, you're better off going with the gum.

That's what I heard, too. Still, that is a tempting price. If it turns out that it's even slightly enjoyable, I might end up getting it.

@Yasume

Sweet haul, dude! Not a bad game in the bunch! Where'd you find all those anyways? I know I can never find the GC version of Beyond Good & Evil no matter where I look.

A Dutch site that is exactly like eBay but only for people who live in the Benelux. I always buy my games on that site. They are used games, but I always make sure that I get them in excellent condition (I only look for advertisements that includes pictures). I paid €62,- for those 8 games together, which is a bit more than usual, but Baten Kaitos seems to be a pretty rare game. Most people are selling it for €25,- or more.

I suggest checking out eBay if you are looking for Beyond Good & Evil. It can't be that hard to find.

The Gamecube version is apparently pretty rare, but eBay does have a few, though most are $25 or more, which is a lot more expensive than any other version, and more money than I can afford to spend.

Mickeymac, get the PS2 version. It´s cheaper.

Beyond Good & Evil is an awesome game.

Videos of PS2 version:

Not particularly rare in Europe, I know it doesn't help you but a quick look on Amazon UK and the Gamecube version is currently selling the cheapest of the 3 consoles.

By any chance was it at Zellers? I saw they had their GameCube games for $5. I would have picked up Twilight Princess but I already had it for the Wii.

Yes, Marktplaats. As far as I'm aware they are pretty much the same. I haven't bought anything of Ebay in my life, but I checked the site regularly until I found out about Marktplaats. So what are the differences?

Due to that I am going to be pretty busy with convention preparations and other hassles in life's way, I am not able to maintain this thread anymore. So this post will be updated up to gaga64's post above and I will not update it afterward.

If anyone like to take the reins over this page, gimme a heads up in here or PM and I'll give you the txt format of my post. [Sorry, I don't have any fancy spreadsheets or anything for my master list.]

Thanks!!

Aw jeez, that stinks. If I knew this would have happened, I would have just kept this thread and kept going with my terribly slow updates.

Sorry to hear you can't do this any more enig, but I know how life can really get busy sometimes. And you do all this with just .txt files!? Is that how everyone does it? Maybe my fancy spreadsheets are just slowing things down.

Yeah, I know it sounds like a poor trade-off, but for some reason right now I'm really feeling a Sonic vibe, and can't see myself playing Metroid Prime again.
