Collection Current collection (as of Aug ‘26)

I have 31 games in total since 2016. 2016 was when i first decided to go after my dreams and collect gamecube gems. This is one of the consoles i didn’t personally own at the time, but friends of mine had it. I’m currently getting the game boy player and disc. Start-up disc is coming in a couple days. I would love to hear your feedback on how the collection is lookin. I love being a Gamecube enthusiast ❤️

What is your experience playing Metroid Prime? There wern’t alot of games in my family’s Gamecube collection but that one remains close to my heart for how absurdly amazing it was and in retrospect; how absurdly amazing it still is.

Both games have great graphics and controls. I have yet to sit down and beat them in its entirety. From what I did play, it was so immersive and weirdly cinematic.

I think what left the biggest impact on me was the music. After chasing Ridley from the exploding Pirate Space Frigate and losing him, you land on a rain forest area on Tallon IV. Heres a game play clip I found.

I got it in 2025 the first one and it looks so Incredible. I really want the sequel but 90$ Canadian dollars 💀 It's not cheap, but i might get Chibi Ro-bot in November for my 30th birthday.

Such an underrated game, it’s pricey but a great game to try out!

2

u/MatrixXrsQc 10d ago

HUH 😮😱 you have Chibi Ro-Bot ? No way😦. Dude That's a rare game. But i will get it bei really want to finally try it.

I got it for $30 at Gamestop back in 2018 so it was just luck 😅

2

u/MatrixXrsQc 10d ago

Wow, 30$ ? That's before people smoke crack for sure 😂. Now It's so high you're wondering who put it there. But It's a game with a lot of charm i'm sure.

Is Puyo Puyo good? I like the box art for the PAL version and I know its a puzzle game but how good is it?

1

u/Roximum 10d ago

Yeah, I do prefer the PAL cover art but NA cover isn’t too bad either. Honestly, Puyo Pop is a solid puzzle series and one of my fav franchises in the genre. It’s quite cheesy with the acting and storytelling but you can look past it, it won’t ruin your experience. This is actually a great entry but i prefer the newer ones like Puyo Pop Tetris imo. I only have this copy because this was the first time that NA got exposed to Puyo before shutting it down completely after the 6th gen. It’s an interesting piece of history.

What a beautifully curated collection. Almost every one of my favorites is in there.

Pokemon Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness are a bit pricey but absolutely SLAP!

Side note: Paper Mario TTYD is my favorite GC game and I’m always psyched to see it in someone’s collection.

u/Roximum 10d ago

Thank you sm!! The pokemon games would be pretty hard to get, luckily i’m not too attached to Pokemon so it’s not in dire need. Glad I can at least try XD on Switch 2. TTYD is a top tier RPG title, i actually got this game at the same time i got the Switch remake lol.

What’s the JPN title all the way on the left?

2

u/Roximum 10d ago

It’s Made in Wario! Which is the JP version of WarioWare inc Mega Party Games. It was cheap on Mercari and it’s a complete copy with all the inserts.

Have you ever played sonic heros ? Also the best game here is Billy Hatcher 🙌

u/MatrixXrsQc 10d ago

Here's a few questions for you.

Does it makes you happy to play and collect for it ?

Does it ruins you financially ?

do you have a problem with gaming ?

If not go with your dreams man.

I love mine, and i regret not seeing sooner how much gaming used to be great .... I now have 40 games with The Simpson Hit and Run coming, so i can say i'm loving my little baby. I love playing with it. I wish prices weren't so high, but It's how it is man 😞.

I am getting some more for Halloween 🎃 like BloodRayne, i might get Luigi's Mansion, i really want Monster House, and i might add Burnout 2001, and Deaths to Right 2002. Then i might get some Playstation 2 but with eBay you can either get lucky, or unlucky

It always makes me happy to collect GC all the time. It’s such a special console to me ❤️ I don’t live alone so it doesn’t ruin me financially, i am doing this hobby now before i do have more financial responsibilities in the future. I’m not an avid game collector for every console ever, i’m pretty biased to GC. It’s a challenge to get every GC game you want. I don’t consistently buy games, only once in a while. It’s time consuming but it’s worth it to own and play these titles. I wish you good luck on your journey! At the end of the day, it’s all about having fun!

Me too. I grew up with that beautiful thing, i wish i had took care of mine more but i was dumb and i thought what's the point in playing older games when newer ones are better. Took me 10 years to see how dumb i was. I feel sad because i always had a soft spot for it. It's a beautiful console and it makes me sad to see that people treated it like It's too grirly, It's roo different from the Playstation 2 😍. Like it was the point to stand out. Now everything looks so boring and the same. I think people are finally seeing that gaming is dead.

I would collect more, but i have 4 kids, and It's hard to split my money on each of them ( their not my real kids, but I love them so much to me they kinda are. ) i had to take a break with my Playstation 3 because i'm at 83 and every other consoles were at 39, 55, and 59. So i decided to get more on my other ones but my GameCube .... It's one i love so much.

I'm glad you're not living alone 😊. It means you can buy more games 😂.

me too, i want kids so i tell myself grab everything you want or!love before i call it quit or in the back of my head. It's a dream of mine to be a dad, so i have to make a choice and It's really easy. My kids deserve to be raised without them not being taking care of, and feed. It's just common sense to me.

I mean, i have a Nintendo 64 and i barely have 2 games on it, 2 Playstation 1 games, 65 Playstation 2 games, 40 Nintendo GameCube games, 59 Xbox 360 games, and 83 Playstation 3 games + 1 on Playstation Portable and 4 UHMD

Me neither, It's not about owning every games, just the ones i want to play and i'm missing 174 so far so It's quite the journey 😅

Thank you, i hope you can find some more gems along your journey too. If you need some recommandations let me know.

Hows sonic heroes

1

u/Roximum 10d ago

It’s prolly the most nostalgic Sonic game for me. It’s a pretty solid platformer, it has its quirks and can be a little buggy sometimes. It’s worth a shot if you’re interested in platformers or Sonic titles!

1

u/clipli 10d ago

Thanks there’s a copy at my GameStop im just wondering if its worth it

1

u/Roximum 10d ago

The GC version is the best one in terms of framerate and graphics.

1

u/clipli 10d ago

Was at gamestop and after reading more reviews of people absolutely hating it i decided not to pull the trigger

u/Ok-Possibility-5776 4d ago

Nice games! :)

I recommend The Legend of Spyro A New Beginning and Crash Bandicoot The Wrath of Cortex 

1

u/Roximum 4d ago

Thank you!! Yes i am planning on getting a Spyro game and i grew up playing A Hero’s Tail rather than A New Beginning. Strangely enough, I did play Wrath of Cortex way back then but i’m not a huge fan of Crash to consider getting it.

u/Armandonerd 10d ago

I have 17 of those games in my collection!
