Reply to comment by Tupiekit in Are there any games that you've previously owned and regret selling since they're now too rare and expensive to ever buy back? by HopefulMyriad1

I'm sorry to hear that; the GameCube really did have an interesting catalogue of titles! I think the rarest GameCube games I ever owned (before selling them, of course) were the Phantasy Star 1+2 Special Edition and that Zelda Collection that they released.

Yeah it really bothered me..hell it still does. I’ve been slowly building back my collection though thankfully.

It's certainly not easy, I'm sure of that- with the recent closure of the 3DS eshop, we've seen 3DS games soar in price, so I can't imagine what many GameCube games are going for these days. Back around 2016 when I sold my copy of Shantae, the "last game" I needed for my "Collection" was a game that the seller wouldn't sell for less than $700- that's when I realized that I'd never be able to continue buying retro games at those kinds of prices. Good luck to you in getting them back, friend!
