  • You're probably a few days late; pretty sure all the good shit got snapped up in the Buy 2 Get 2 Free sale last week.
  • i assume so as well, but there was a gs with great shit. What should i look out for? now that mvc2 is only worth 30 bucks i got no idea what else to be on the prowl for
  • the buy 2 get 2 sale is done though. i went back today to get some and it is done

  • I understand as much, i jus twant to know exactly what to look for. If i find the holy grial of gba for 40 buck si'll buy it. i just want to know what to be look'n for as there seems to be zero info online about it
  • cubivore for gamecube
  • Gamcube

    Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire
    Zelda Collectors Edition
    Zelda Ocarina Masters Quest
    NCAA 2k3 College Basketball
    Skies of Arcadia
    Metroid Prime/Windwaker Bundle


    All those are worth a good chunk

    PS2
    Xenosage III
    Balders Gate 2
    Metal Gear Solid 3 Limited Edition
    Ico
    Most dot hack games
    Suikoden V
    Silent Hill 3
    Fatal Frame 1 and 3

    Not super rare games on some but all those are worth a decent amount of money, and you can make some serious money if you get them cheap
  • Shadow Hearts 1 and 2 are not super-rare, but they are in demand. 1 was released three days before FF X so the sales weren't that great. Great RPGs to play too.



    Almost all Working Designs releases are worth a bunch. The huge Growlanser box is really cool and something definitely to look for.



    Some other valuables:



    Tales of the Abyss

    Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance II

    Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne, Digital Devil Saga 2 & Devil Summoner Raidou Kuzunoha vs. The...

    Zone of the Enders 2nd runner

    hack G.U. vol.1 Rebirth Limited edition is a cash cow also



    Good hunting.



  • I know Ico has been steadily climbing in price.



    As far as GameCube goes, I think Ikaruga, Twin Snakes and Pikmin 2 fetch pretty high prices still.
  • Hey, man, gotta clearly define the thread title please. Like the adjusted title, not just "what are the rarest".

    I think the value on Ico is gonna crash and burn with the release of it on PS3. Pretty much all the RPGs are gonna hold their value.
  • At least in fantasy gamestop pricing land Pikmin 2 is a $40 game still and Twilight Princess is $35. But also if you get away from the slimy underdealings of ePay where they think Cubivore is like some $50 game and Skies of Arcadia is $25-35 or whatever, elsewhere including gamestop it's like $15+/-. It all really depends where you look.
  • Keep an eye out for Ninja Five-0 for the GBA. I've never seen one in 2 years of looking. Goes for $40+ loose on ebay. I just picked up a CB Pikmin2 for $4 at a thrift.

    yup i got one of those at work for 5.95....flipped for 50 in a couple of days on ebay. First time i ever looked for it and found one.
  • I guess it has gone up as some years ago I got one at a fairly cheap retail price (20 or less) and I know I turned it for $30 or so which was good as it really wasn't that good to me. If it's getting $50 now though I wish I had it.

    ICO has already crashed. It's already down to $20 from $50 several months ago. I was pumped because our gamestop had 3 copies during that sale and when I looked them up, I was disappointed.
  • Metal Gear Solid 3 Substance LE has to be one of the rarest for the PS2. Firefighter FD 18 is another harder to find/expensive one.

    Rule of Rose is a harder to find survival horror title, it's seems to sell for $30-40 on Ebay.
  • Ico may go back up temporarily, that two pack with SOTC along with Last Guardian have been shoveled into 2012.
  • I'd rather find the most expensive common games than the rarest games most of the time.. I'm always on the lookout for some flippable cheap FF7's I want to find the ps2 equivalent of that.
  • Seeing as these games will only be on the shelves for another year, or until they get rid of all of them, I figured I'd put together a spreadsheet for everyone's searching convenience! It's the best in my opinion when your in the store and you have a list of the games you're looking for right on your PDA or smartphone. This is by no means a complete list, it actually only contains most of the suggestions you guys listed here and a few games I know that go for a decent amount of money. I didn't really list anything that sells for less than $15. As long as you guys keep posting games and as long as I keep on the lookout I will keep updating the list!

    I attached the .xls file to my post.
  • the list you posted said it is encrypted.



    Gamecube here is a hard to find game that I think will be hard to find later on: Disney Sports Basketball (look on ebay, there is only 2 CIB copies) D

    Try it now.
  • Can one single person please download my spreadsheet so I don't feel like I wasted 2 hours of my life!!!
  • I looked at it ^_^ I memorized some packets I didn't care about before and so I've found some use. I don't think I need it on my compy but I've ascertained a little knowledge- thanks
  • I downloaded it! Gonna have to keep my eyes peeled for some sweet PS2 and Gamecube deals. Already have a couple of the gcn rares (Pikmin 2 and the Zeldas..)
  • Thanks for the list, it'll be very helpful.
  • from what i've found and sold.. gc - resident evil code veronica 40+ game
  • I've found that Rule of Rose for PS2 is quite rare. I've only ever seen this game at Gaming Conventions and eBay for like $60+ CAD.

    I not only downloaded it, but printed it off and added it to my game reselling binder

    Wish I found this a little sooner though, I bought about $150 worth of NES, SNES, and N64 resale at a garage sale last weekend and the guy had a ton of PS2 games - I just had no idea on the big guns to look out for.

  • The hardest gamecube game to find is the Wind Waker/Metroid prime bundle. They rarely pop up, and when they do, they sell for around $75+.
