A Quick Purchasing Question

Post by christopher85 »

Hey guys! I just stumbled upon a gamecube with 4 contollers, memory card, 4 games: super mario sunshine, tom clancys rainbow six, nhl hitz 2002, and nba live 05 with all chords included at Goodwill for 50 bucks. Is this a deal or no deal?

I'd say no deal, I think you could probably find better.

While not a really good deal, it's not bad. Gamecube controllers alone go for about $10 each.

Thanks for helping out. I didn't mean to make the post sound soo urgent I just didn't want to pass up on a great deal if it were one. I've been wanting one of these for sometime now.

I'd say it's worth it if the controllers are all first-party.

While bargain hunting you could probably find a nicer deal (save maybe 10 or 15 more dollars), I'd say that is a good deal over all. Retail used Gamecubes with one controller goes for $30 and then the 3 extra controllers would easily be another $30-$50 bucks.

If you have been wanting one, pull the trigger.


Like others have said it's not a steal, but still a good deal.


Pull the trigger.





edit: memory card too

Well, free. Sometimes you have to take what you can get though.

I would call this "ideal"


What are you waiting for? You could be playing Super Mario Sunshine right now if you would of pulled the trigger already.
