most valuable? *?

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

Cubivore, maybe?

 

[Speevy]

Probably Cubivore, Doshin the Giant, Resident Evil remakes, Skies of Arcadia Legends. Though none of these are that rare. You might just have to pay full price for them.

 

[CompositeMolar]

PSO?

 

[Ruas]

ikaruga XD

 

[Musashi Wins!]

Gotcha Force

 

[Calidor]

Winning Eleven 6: Final Evolution ?

 

[Azure Dream]

I think Virtua Quest is rarer in some places than it is others, due to bad distribution.

 

[worldrunover]

I hear one of those Sega NCAA football games are like uber rare on the Cube.

 

[GitarooMan]

Was Doshin the Giant actually released in the US or just in Europe and Japan? Also, Alien Hominid isn't super rare now, but I think it eventually will be

Just Europe and Japan.

NCAA College Basketball 2003.

 

[M3wThr33]

There's a Micro Machines game that was supposedly released in some Southern California Toys R Us and nowhere else.

NCAA College Basketball 2003.

Were there really only 3,000 copies made? If so, what the hell was the point of even developing a Gamecube version?

 

[koam]

The Superman game. Forgot the name.

Beats me. It may have been a simple accounting error like the one that saw McDonald's order $100 million worth of advertising for the Arch Deluxe instead of $10 million.

Simply a case of Sega being Sega. If I remember correctly, they discontinued their "Sega Sports" line on Gamecube only days after the game shipped.

As far as rare titles go, I'll add Konami's Rave Master to the list. Even my steadfast collector friends had trouble tracking this one down.

I'm also betting on the Collector's Edition of Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory to eventually be tough to find as well.

Weird. I was at Fry's just a few days ago, and they had at least 10 copies. I didn't even know the game had been released in the US - I was actually pretty into the import for a while, but ended up selling it 6 months or so ago. Maybe I'll pick it up again now that it's out here, if there's any truth to the rumor of rarity.

In a perfect world Mr Driller Drill Land would be uber rare, inspiring collectors and 'hardcore gamers' to seek it out, and hopefully exposing them to its brilliance in the process. Unfortunately, it's not. The good news, though, is that it can easily be had for about $30 on eBay or elsewhere. I highly recommend everyone check it out!

They made Mr. Driller for Gamecube?

 

[nubbe]

Universal Studios Theme Park?

 

[Speevy]

Are there any rare or uncommon Gamecube games that someone would want to play?

 

[Madame M]

Bust a Move 3000

 

[EGM92]

Ikuaruga is rare??

my local game shop has like 10 copies, some sealed going for 29.99CAD and used for 19.99CAD, it's actually the only gamecube game I kept after getting rid of my nintendo stuff, well that in Twin Snakes.

 

[bobbyconover]

Yeah, and it completely dominates every other Mr Driller release before and since, to boot. If you're even remotely interested in the other games in the series you should seriously consider tracking it down.

Here's a review by our own BuddyChrist that might help convince you: http://www.gaming-age.com/cgi-bin/reviews/review.pl?sys=gamecube&game=mrdriller_drill_land

 

[demi]

Skies of Arcadia Legends is $20 new. Go to the nearest GameStop or EB.

It's quite rare I hear!







p.s.

lol idiots

 

[Link1110]

Puyo Pop fever. I had never seen or heard of this game until I saw sega's site a few weeks ago and saw the release date 7/20. Having never heard of its release I assumed that woul dhave it coming out in a few weeks, but it really came out lasdt year (7/20/04) and I had completely never heard of it coming here (I wouldve bought it release day.) Future grail, and a fun game too.

 

[Pellham]

I thought Resident Evil 2 and 3 were supposed to be rare, but I saw tons of copies of them at Frys the other day...

 

[Polari]

Twin Snakes is really rare in PAL territories it seems, somewhat bizarrely. Doshin the Giant isn't really rare at all, copies can be had new for about $15 US.

 

[Hellraizah]

I've had a hell of a time seeking a sealed US Beach Spikers on Ebay.

 

[The Main Event]

I thought Resident Evil 2 and 3 were supposed to be rare, but I saw tons of copies of them at Frys the other day...

Really? Damn, I think I'll pick both of 'em next time I'll be in L.A. I wish we had Fry's in Canada

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t...097207-2263210?v=glance&s=videogames&n=507846

Expensive sealed, but quite reasonable if you don't mind used..

 

[Speevy]

Here are some games I'm easily able to find at Gamestop

1) Pool Paradise
2) Space Invaders
3) Universal Studios Theme Park Adventure
4) PN03
5) Beach Spikers
6) Lost Kingdoms (both)
7) Swingerz Golf
8) Resident Evil 2
9) Resident Evil 3

It's a shame that most of these are garbage.

 

[Madame M]

Capcom fuckers released a small batch of RE3 not a day before I planned to put my copy on eBay to sell for $90...

That would explain it...

I've never played RE3, so I think I should get the GC version since it was the most recent version of it released (even if it is just a port).

But it's not a U.S. release.

 

[Musashi Wins!]

you need a mod to save Mr. Driller Land

The RE's besides being criminally bad, are criminally bad ports. I weep for people buying them at premium prices.

They're $26 or so each at Game Express. (gexpress.com)

That includes 2, 3, and CV.

 

[bobbyconover]

I've offered several times to mod Gamecubes for free (you pay shipping to/from me) specifically so people could try out Drill Land, and not once has anyone taken me up on it. :\

I've never heard of these offers.

Modding has always scared me though...

I've had a good deal on it (in my opinion). Sealed for 19,99$ USD.

The RE ports for a reasonable price. Ugh.

Cubivore is really neat, though I'm not sure if it's rare.

 

[VALIS]

Good luck. The basketball and football games are very hard to find, while the soccer and party games show up now and then, but usally no less than $40+. There were other GC Disney games, but nowhere near as rare.

 

[boredJonathan]

Ah, I was actually thinking more along the lines of -

[drinky]3rd party games[/drinky]

 

[demi]

How about Go! Go! Hypergrind!

 

[bobbyconover]

How about Go! Go! Hypergrind!

That's still readily available for $10ish where I live. I can't believe Disney's Party is rare, though. That was the ultimate pass-on-it-for-$5-at-Circuit-City game for the longest time!

 

[yggEsuxeN]

thank god i bought re2, re3, and veronica when it first came out

Did you trade them into Walmart soon after?
