GameStop has once again begun selling refurbished GameCube consoles for those looking to go on a nostalgia trip. A refurbished GameCube will set you back a mere $20 and will be available from the retailer for as long as stock lasts. GameStop will also be selling a variety of GameCube games and accessories.
GameStop Restocks Refurbished GameCube Consoles For $20
Well, the controllers will help towards the gamecube Smash deal so, that’s all good.
Yup that is why I am buying one !
Why doesn’t the gamestop website say you can get it anymore? Have they really sold in 2 days?
Whoa, Gamecube Games as well? I could care less about the console (Although it could be good as a spare, but I trust mine) but the games could be awesome as long as they have the original cover. Any news on when they will start doing the games?
They need nes snes n64 ps1 and dreamcast stuff
nice deal i hope it they stock it all the way to Christmas.
Holy sh*t. O_O $20?
If you have a Wii, you also have a working gamecube
Not necessarily.
But still, if I had a GameStop nearby I would get one just to have it…
Gamecube is a much cooler console and for $20 a homeless person can afford it.
Yup I hope they’ll start selling game cube games again now that they’re selling game cubes again :-)
The article above just said they would.
And with Component Cables, you have a 480p Progressive Scan Gamecube in your Wii. And it rocks!
But it’s not as good as the official component cables for GameCube.
Nintendo needs to make a wireless gamecube controller for the wii u. That is the only smart move.
Are you suggesting the wavebird will not work with the adapter?
Wavebirds have been confirmed to work…the only problem is that they are incredibly difficult to find. And not cheap!
Exactly Bitrip, if you can find them I have seen cheapest for around $70.00 and as high as over $100.00, and both are used…
I’ve got four of ’em in working condition!
A good wavebird is about 25-30 in my area. I already have 4 matching ones that work perfect.
Wave bird? Man I’ve forgotten about those. XD They do work but any further connection distance will render it unstable.
Because making multiple different GameCube controller options is a good idea… It will cost them more than it would make them to produce a regular controller, a pack with adapter and developing a new controller that gets recognized as a GameCube controller but not a Wii U pro controller… We are getting GameCube support, be happy.

That is a great bargain. The GC has some fantastic games.
look up a place Oogie Games and see if they ship… it is a treasure trove of old systems and games folks

Give me your address there.
Reblogged this on TrueSelfGaming.
Awesome, mine was stolen from as a child and it would be nice to have another sustem in my collection.

If you buy a used GameCube controller from GameStop….kill yourself. Just pay 10 bucks more and get a fresh new one poverty kids
Poverty of the mind equals vulgar and uneducated insults at non related scenarios, as you are demonstrating.
F=Ma.
You don’t even know your own laws…
You mean your third law:
Fa on b = -Fb on a
The return of another Nintendo great. GameStop like we all are, sense Nintendo shipping millions of games and hardware due to the release of the Gamecube adapter and controllers on the WiiU.
…So, were GameStop just keeping GameCube consoles and games on ice in preparation for just a situation like this or something?
Yup, they actually still have Atari/NES/SNES/’insert retro console here’ in their warehouses, they don’t really throw much away. There was an article about this about 2-3 months ago were they plan on opening a store with all retro consoles and games to sell them to hipsters….. I mean, retro gamers, nostalgics, or any one really.
Is nobody going to mention the fact that Gamestop is sitting on thousands upon thousands of now rare gamecube games? Gamestop is why so many gamecube games are so expensive, they have most of the copies.
And they probably want your DNA to let you buy them…
True story
I guess if Playstation 2 games are still selling in both Gamestop and Walmart then the Gamecube and it’s games should be in there too.
Gamecube controller still the best ever.
Hm. If they have Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean, Baten Kaitos Origins, & Eternal Darkness, I’m sold. If not, I’d rather wait for Nintendo to eventually emulate them somehow.
The entire console or only $20.00? That’s actually a good price. Especially if they work like new. My niece could use a new one.
