GameStop Corporate: This deal is pretty good, we need a creative way to still annoy customers. Employee: I have these stickers....

6:14 "ehhhh, a little bit of damage here..." [proceeds to forcefully ram-jam the cover into the case]

This exactly what I needed this Saturday morning.

Kirby air ride was such a great game. I have so many memories playing the city free play map, trying to piece together the special cart rides from the boxes 😁

I still think GameStop should focus on retro more, have constant deals and promotions that rotate specifically for the older games and consoles, the prices on their retro selection is usually pretty good imo

a game being loose vs complete in cart will have two completely different values. Almost doubling in price. Buying loose games are a good way to go if you want to save money & just want to play the game. With Used Game Stop games it really comes down to which value you're paying for since it's a mystery of what you'll receive.

I’ve always collected NES games, but as far as the GameCube one of my favorite systems, whenever I see any GameCube games at thrift stores I always grab them, they are getting harder to find and more expensive every year.

I absolutely love these episodes! Can’t wait for you to go get them from stores!

GameCube is sooo underrated.

Enjoying these haul videos. I’m collecting GameCube games also just grabbed pikmin 1, Zelda four swords, XIII, and sonic mega collection this week

12:05 just seeing the colors got me super excited! Love the cartridge design for Stadium 2

I really wish gamestop, where i live, still had "older" games. (They only had about 20-30 ps3 games, 10 of which were skyrim, left half a year ago) Ever since gamestop opened a store in my city, most other videogame stores closed. I knew at least 4 that i loved to go to that don't exist anymore now. Actually, there is only one videogame store left here that isn't gamestop... And over the last few years, they cut half of their space, previously used for videogames, and are selling mostly merch now. The Gamestop store here is right next to a merch only store (Elbenwald)....... Also, their online store in my counrty doesn't have any older games either...

Man you got almost all the cases for gamecube games. I almost never get any when I order from GameStop

Awesome start to my Saturday! I love these game cube vids! Always excited to see what you find!

Yeah, keep em coming! Your last one inspired me to rebuild my childhood N64 collection before it gets way too expensive to do. Still missing a jungle green controller and about seven games. Been a lot of fun. Best of luck with GC!

Love videos like these. Keep up the collecting!

Hell yeah! Congrats on the haul! Really enjoyed the video. Thanks! Happy Fourth!

Skies of Arcadia should be remade, remastered, rebooted, and given a sequel.

These videos are great. Thanks for letting me watch.

The look in your face tells that you were really happy doing this video 😜

Yes! +1 for using Mirror B for the outro :D those bloody Ludicolos!

Knowing GameStop they took all the Manuals and sold then separately.

This was entertaining to watch. I missed playing these games.

Tell me you had Colosseum back then too, hands down best rpg for the gamecube, best Pokemon game.

Played so much city trials in Kirby air ride whenever I hungout with my friend! Was one of my fav games and had to give my friend Kirbys air ride as a gift

When it’s Saturday so no morning vid but spawn pulls through

Great video, loving your GameCube nostalgia!!

Nice you got all of those cases. I've never gotten a manual for GC games from GameStop.

Prefer it being on the spindle - actually had a disc that got a nice full-blown crack on it by shipping "sleeved in case"

For real though, what a haul. Absolute masterpieces, pretty much every single one of them.

Hangover sunday, and here I am watching this amazing video.

F-Zero GX is amazing. They should re-release it with full multiplayer support on the Switch.

Good hunting Spawn. Keep it up!

Love the show, been especially liking the Gamecube collection videos

I'm honestly just surprised they all had the cover art. Back when I would go to gamestop, on their used shelf, more than half of the games had no cover art. Just a white sheet of paper with the title in small print.

Kirby Air Ride is literally perfect for split Joy-Con play. God I want a sequel or port to that game so badly

Kirby Air Ride was such a slept-on Party Game. I can't believe after all these years there still isn't a sequel.

I'm amazed you got boxes on six of those, and black label Air Ride as well!

Fun video I always like these. My game cube collection while limited to the 70 games I got back in the day is one I'm proud off. Some games I would like to get but I'm happy. All in near perfect condition with cases and manuals including killer 7. Good luck on the hunt.

Kirby Air Ride was my jam, so much so that I have three copies and we still play it (locally) through the broadband adapters

It’s strangely therapeutic watching you open up mail.

Have a great 4th man! Stay safe

Hell yeah really been enjoying watching the building of a Gamecube collection

I think having the disc in the sleeve is a good idea. I’ve ordered some sealed games online before and the disc ended up being loose inside from shipping

While I'm super happy to see you got a copy of Kirby Air Ride, and I hope you fully enjoy your time with it again Where is Custom Robo?!

2:44 SomecallmeJohnny: "Is that game any good? Anyway..."

Nice pickups! I also enjoyed Kirby Air Ride. I bit the bullet and bought Valkyrie Profile for PS1 CIB Mint and Legend of Legaia for PS1 CIB Mint.

Dude we need a GameCube collection tour

Hey Spawn Wave, can you put these “This is what the sent me” videos into a playlist? It’d be nice to just have them running while I’m doing stuff!

now these are the best unboxing videos

Use a heat gun or hair dryer to loosen the glue on the back of the sticker. Only takes a couple of seconds. They come right off lol.

You inspired me to pull my cube back out Spawn. It was my first home console, lot of memories. Pikmin 2 and Gale of Darkness were some of my favorite when I was a kid.

Those giant black stickers mean the game was at one point broken, but resurfaced back to life

Great video SpawnWave, i actually grabbed Killer7 on steam a while back and you made me want to play it again, thanks :) (also speaking of Goichi Suda, i wonder when we are going to get an update on No More Heroes 3, that and Bayonetta 3 have been in limbo for a while now)

You really got me into collecting. I grabbed a ps2 and my library is currently still just stuff I played at a friends house when I was a kid but I think the coolest thing I’ve found is smt nocturne.

Mario Superstar Baseball, Mario Party 4, Metroid Prime, SSX Tricky, Luigi’s Mansion, Mario Strickers, Mario Kart,. Reasons the GameCube will always hold a special place in my heart.

Shows F-Zero GX. Thanks for the war flashbacks Spawnwave.

Spawn have you been to the Portland Retro Gaming Expo? That is a great gaming event each year. This year's event in August was cancelled but a great one to go to when conventions come back to get what you're looking for.

I love all of these games! Awesome purchases🤘🏻😜✨🔥 Yeah pricing is ridiculous now days 😅

To this day, whenever I see a Gamecube disc cover, something inside me still gets giddy with excitement. I never feel this way with switch games. It's like this old, childlike feeling that ascends from my core

At least you got the case with your XD gale of darkness, when mine came it just came with the disk in a yellow DVD envelope.

I definitely think them putting the discs in a sleeve and tucked in the case is better than just putting them on the spindle. With how badly packages can be treated at times by shipping, this seems like an extra precaution that would keep the game from popping off that spindle and sliding around inside the case during shipping.

I fricken LOVE Kirby Air Ride!!! We played it all the time at my cousin’s house growing up!!! I’m just now building a GameCube collection, and my brother got me Kirby, and it’s still so much fun. I also need the manual for mine though

I ordered MGS: The Twin Snakes from GameStop a year ago and it came complete with manual and safety warning. This disc's were poorly resurfaced though.

A little bummed I missed the sale, I’ve had surprisingly good luck with GameStop’s online store in the past. My best find was Chibi-Robo for a lot less than most sellers, with both the box and manual.

God, I wish TPC would do HD ports of Colosseum and XD.

I luv these collecting videos👍

Make sure to get Top Angler. It’s a fishing game that is super hard to find and getting very expensive.

It seems like spawn wants GameStop to stay in business!!

LOLO 5:23 Low-powered Goku, can;t even beat up a Putty from Power Rangers.

Pokemon XD Gale of Darkness is literally my favorite GameCube game that I own. The story was overall good and I never had a dull moment.

Wow. Great haul!

Heat the sticker with a hairdryer or your breath to remove them. They peel off easier that way.

Man bummed I missed this deal. I’ve been keeping an eye out and only saw the buy 2 get 2 on games 15 and under recently. Was a struggle to find retro games under 15 that were worth getting, buy 5 get 3 with no price restrictions woulda been way better

Really fun video to watch.

The content of the video caught my eye, but, the extremely subtle mirror B theme as backround music kept me watching the whole video... I love that Pokemon game so much (':

DBZ Sagas was elite .. surprised to hear that viewpoint on the game

For this type of videos I subscribed 😅

Nice to see I have all these GCN games except Kirby's Air Ride

I beat 'Everything or Nothing 007' and 'From Russia with Love 007' for GameCube earlier this year. What a FANTASTIC console generation 😌❤️🎮

A few notes: F-Zero GX has a widescreen mode you can enable in the settings. Pokémon Colosseum and XD were used by many people back then to trade Johto- and Kanto-Pokémon (especially Ho-Oh and Lugia) to Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald and are some of the best Pokémon RPGs out there, including Game Freak's games. Sadly Genius Sonority is not allowed to make Pokémon games similar to the main series anymore, but they're still making tons of spin offs. Lastly, there's a trick you can use to make sure that the data on your discs is not damaged, Adam Koralik uses it too. He dumps his games with homebrew as backup and then copies the hash values generated during the process and looks them up in a spreadsheet. If the values can't be found it is probable that the disc itself is damaged. And with the GCLoader he primarily uses these copies to play his games. That way they're preserved and can be played without wearing the discs. 😊

Wow they all came with cases almost . Not bad at all GameStop .... 🤔🤔 maybe I should do this and use all the extra manuals I have xD

Ending this video with the mirror b battle theme earned it a like

My buddy's a manager at GameStop and he says they usually threw away the manuals for alot of the older stuff..

It is better inside the sleeve because it prevents from accidentally pressing the middle button on the case and releasing the disc from inside, making it shake and scratch.

Miror B. battle theme is the best way to end any video. :D

I still hop on my GameCube from time to time and play Kirby AirRide! It’s for sure one of my fondest childhood memories!

Kirby Air Ride was AMAZING! I still remember flying up on the tallest building with the Dragoon like it was yesterday...It's too bad I ended up selling it. It's one of my biggest regrets as an adult now.

I was inspired by your first video to order GameStop GameCube games! I ordered 9 and the only one that didn’t work was Smash Melee :( only Tales of Symphonia came with a case. This is truly gambling at its finest

My brother and I found Mario Superstar Baseball for Gamecube. I called dang near every retro game store in Houston to find it.

It'd be cool if you showed your full GameCube collection at the end of each of these videos so we can see it grow.

One hidden gem for the Gamecube is Gotcha Force. At first glance it might look like a kiddy game, but that game literally, no joke, gave me daily plays for several years. I can't recommend it enough for people to play.

YES! So happy you got F-Zero GX. It's not only my favorite F-Zero game, but tbh, my favorite racing game ever. I still have my copy + manual and everything. No, I will not be selling it. Some day I'll get an HDMI modded GameCube and play it again.

Cool video talk tech spawn wave

Love the Game Cube vids.

You did better than me. During the B2G2 sale last weekend, I ordered 8 PS3 games. Only two (Saw and Wolfenstein 2009) were CIB, the rest were in generic cases.

LET'S GO XD GALE OF DARKNESS AND THAT OUTRO TOO

You're much luckier than I am. I've yet to get a 2-disc case from Gamestop regarding any Gamecube titles I've bought from them. I've only gotten the 2 discs in a bag so far...

Maybe there was a later release of Pokémon XD that doesn't have the holographic cover art, but there's a version where it's holographic. Or maybe GameStop printed that out to put on the shelf back in the day, like they did with some Metroid Prime Trilogy trade-ins which normally only had a steelbook case.

I’ve been collecting gamecube games because of you, been working on getting the Mario party’s but it is quite expensive. The good news is that I’m dating the store manager at the local game store, so I get pretty much first dibs on anything that comes in 👍🏼
