I drove 200 MILES for these GameCube Games 

Man that store looks incredible! Every time you go there, I see something else I want lol

That seller in the store sounds like he would give you whatever price you wanted for anything, rarely any hesitation, must be nice

i love how calm collected and nonchalant Ryan is idk why it cracks me up he's so calm

I actually visit this store biweekly. It's across town from me. Dude that owns the place is laid back and has up to date prices memorized at all times. I believe the store started as a joint games collection and sprouted into a business to sell off excess. Regardless, it's the only place I go if there's something specific I want, in confidence I can find it. Especially as a 6th gen collector. It's awesome to see this. Hope you liked your visit bud!

I'd love to have seen Ryan told Caleb that the game usually goes for $200, but it's $250 for him. That would have been extremely fun.

The method is perfectly fine. I’m loving this series and can’t wait for you to complete it!! You deserve it!!

I love this one! I’ve always wondered why you talked about the prices in front of sellers. It was awesome to get an answer!

I used to love that universal studios game!!! it honestly hurts watching these sometimes because at one point, I had all these games and probably traded them in for like 5 dollars store credit lol!! OUCH

I don’t want the GameCube gambit to end, maybe we can add another 30-40 😅 to the list

Love this series, loved the format of this video. Would love to see another big pickup from that store again soon!

I'm so glad theres more people out there who get unreasonably excited by old obscure games

You should do this series with every console. It’s always fun watching you succeed in finding the games you want lol

love the videos man! been binging them the past couple days

A friend of mine referred me to your videos and I love your hustle and content! Honestly has been a dream of mine to collect all my childhood favorite gamecube games and other consoles! Unfortunately I got flooded out during Hurricane Ida and lost a huge chunk of my games and consoles :/ Honestly though based off your awesome finds, it gives me hope that one day I can collect all my childhood favorites! I’m already getting a few of my favorites back! But it’s fun doing it overtime and organized. :D Best of luck!

I have loved watching the gambit, I hope you do more like this.

Almost there! This is an A1 series for sure. Collect-A-Con in Charlotte, NC coming up June 4th & 5th may be worth checking out for trying to find some tougher titles. Can’t wait for it!

I love your video format and what you do. its fun! I love the GCN and I do want to replay it again soon. Thank you for the amazing videos you do and can't wait for more

Oh yeah, its so close to have the collection complete 🔥🔥 A good gamecube game to add could be Tube Slider but i think it will be extra difficult to find 😅

Lovin the edits Riff thanks for the good work my dude

I think you should add more games to the challenge after you finish this one. That or you could always start another series for a different console but at this point a full Gamecube set seems obtainable!

After binging this entire series, I am addicted to this channel! Would love you to pick up Battalion Wars as that was one of my favorites as a child and I think you would actually enjoy the game as well

i love your passion for the gamecube this is such good content!! gamecube was my first and fav system would you ever stream the games you get?? id love to see you play

Hey Caleb! I actually own a copy of samurai jack with the manual I bought years ago and still have. Im not sure if it would be apart of your challenge but if you were ever near Baton Rouge, LA id love to trade it to you.

If you think Ghost Squad is shovel ware, you don't appreciate rail shooters. Game is pure gold!

So happy for this cat, He made his dream work. You bastard you got a very nice collection and i’m definitely envious. Keep hunting G and eating well. Can’t wait to see more vids

That store does look dope! It's fun driving long distances to video game stores! Longest i've drove for games is 407 miles..only did it one time lol

There’s a store here in Hot Springs, AR called Retro Video Games that has a fairly good selection across all generations of gaming systems that you may can check out.

I like the switch up in format, working in one store to find the budget. I think it’s a win for both you and the store owner, they just moved a bunch of inventory and made money…… I do miss the gameplay and review from the earlier episodes

I really wish there were more stores like this here in Wisconsin or at least within driving distance

Aw man, I remember playing ghost squad with my cousins with that Wii Gun Attachment probably over a decade ago at this point. Crazy nostalgic!

Love this format!

I mean in fairness you must have made Ryan some serious money in proxy of you making these videos. Great work as always!

It’s kinda nice that we have different RU-vidrs going after different game challenges at the same time. (Retro Rick going after N64 Collection). Gives a bit of variety to see who gets farther in their pursuit of Retro Gaming Glory!

Hey mate, commenting from Australia 🇦🇺. Idk how but only after a day of watching your channel, you’ve gotten me hooked. Keep up the good work, I’m looking forward to your videos

but when anyone else goes to the store, no discounts lol.

Link in the description killed me haha well done editor Riff!

I love the longer videos

yo this series popped up on my recommended 2 weeks ago and i've been loving it. i dont follow game collecting nor do i really care about game cube. not being rude, i mean that to say you do a great job at entertaining and presenting man keep it up

I would like to see a series on replacing players choice with black labels!

I just started watching this series and you've almost completed it

so I live in this town and had zero clue about this store and as a collector I feel like this is a huge facepalm moment. but Phoenix thanks for the intel gonna be adding a lot new things to the collection

Your Camecube collection is getting spicier!

🔥 videos gets me through my day

I like your point about being upfront about your deals. I feel like a lot of people hide their intentions when buying to try and get better deals, but that doesn't help build a good connection with the seller if they catch a lie.

Hey Phoenix something I'll say is someone i know that was a collector of magic the gathering when it came out has found is that the way you are with game stores, talking openly about how much you'd make, and allowing them in a way to understand your own margins, while also getting rid of inventory they don't need so they can make room for more is how the owners of card shops treat collectors when they come, it's also something that they know allows for them to have a consistent business partner Tho I will also say it's alot easier to do that with stores when you've been reselling for years because of lack of confidence and knowledge on how to figure out proper pricing (Amazon makes that easier than most)

I really like your videos. Keep the mix coming sir. Thanks RIFF. Videos are great sir.

I love seeing folks scrambling for Def Jam on GC,I'm glad I bought it YEARS ago for $10-$15 bucks😌🍻🍺 great video!

Keep the grind up. Use any leverage that is available to you!

Great Collection so far!

8:20 but not at yard sales lol. I also like how pokemon box is upright on the shelf now XD

Not to mention, you’re still helping Ryan by giving him money and moving some of his stock, rather than going to different places on the way there. He still gets the shout out and even if it’s just business, he chose to save those games for you and that says a lot about what good kind of relationship you have built. You’ve spent a ton of money there in the past and he knows what you’re about and your integrity. I’m all good with the video, Caleb.

Very very good talk about being clear with intentions

Itd be nice to see you playing some of your GameCube games now that you have them

Hey Caleb, I was always curious about you going to game stores and buying games for like $10 and then selling it online for $20. These people must know that you are doing it and are cool with it. So how does this kind of video game resale supply chain work? Is it not worth their time? Or do you usually buy enough volume that the lower margins are worth their time so they can get newer product that sells faster? Might be a good 2nd channel video.

I love this series!

GameCube Gambit is really changing my life

Please pick out another 10 games for the gamecube gambit. Im not ready for this to end.

So much stuff that I would buy there and Flip for a Profit. Maybe I should take a trip there and post the vid 👍 👍👍

Odama is such a weird game, a war pinball game requiring the gamecube microphone for voice commands. You have to try it and give us a quick review Caleb !

I don’t want this series to ever end.

All I am saying if anyone gives you any flack for "cheating" because of this episode they are crazy. You just gave a small business a ton of business while trying to complete a challenge. Love it and wish that video game store was in southern Indiana!!

The Game Exchange on Outer Loop here in Louisville had Disney Extreme Skate Adventure last time I was there about a week and a half ago. Would maybe be worth calling them and seeing if it's still avaliable.

Love Ghost Squad!! A great game. One of my favorites on the system.

Not sure if you've heard of it but Metal Arms: Glitch in the system is one of my fave GC games, definitely worth a play.

If the store owner spent 2 dollars on that game sells it for 15 and you also have enough to make 15 that owner isn't leveraging his inventory to open up an online store to double his profits.

"Nobody Cares" had me laughing a bit harder then it should have lol

I've been waiting to see you get that Godzilla game it is one of my favorite games on the GameCube

Get those games love when you hit up that game spot great pickups enjoy

Curious to find out if Caleb decides to give the GameCube collection away on WhatNot when he’s done, like what Retro Ricks doing for the N64 collection

Hi Caleb. I'm watching you from Turkey, I love your videos, keep it up.

Disney extreme skate adventure and fire emblem are both amazing games! I have nice copies of both at my parents house, have not played them in probably over 10 years 😂

To finish my gamecube collection it will cost between 12 n 1500 I wanted to do it for so long but u got me more excited to push for it

I think one thing people don’t consider with a store front owner is that they do have some different incentives when selling. Yeah they gotta make a profit but they spend much less on most games since people usually just bring stuff in that they want to get rid of and want anything for. But also it’s better to have a good amount of turnaround to the shelves for the people who come in and buy frequently. It means clearing space for new games and creating a sense that games you saw last time might be gone so get them this time. Also Caleb does a lot of bulk business so Ryan is probably more willing to do a larger deal since he’s still making a good profit. Overall I think this is just good honest business and I appreciate his transparency with shop owners!

Caleb wouldn’t it be funny if the marker your using to mark off the games was seeping through the paper and now there’s a just a bunch of black lines on your wall! 😳🤣🤣 great channel mate keep up the grind 🤙🇬🇧

I live in Kentucky and it is hard to find games so this shows me where I could get games

I appreciate the beautiful GameCube game content

Might be time for gamecube gambit to take a temporary hiatus with so few games left on the list. It would be interesting to see the whole process of how your track down some of the rarer games that are left though.

50$ off def jam??? Wow man. Wish stores would give me 25% off vintage high value games

That's commitment and the Gamecube was a videogame console that's for sure

Caleb really good video man after your done with the GameCube gambit can you tally up you total payed amount for a video it would be really interesting to see that in a video.

It’s crazy the value of some of these games, I recall playing them not too long ago on the GameCube and I always kept them in nice condition and then I just didn’t have time to play it anymore and my parents or myself would just give the console away with the games and stuff or even just throw them out. Crazy how life works

I found on a store in my country Pokemon Box and Colosseum at 190$ both. Are in minty condition with manuals and memory cards.

Ryan just chillin like a villain bruh

Love watching you flip psp games since it’s my favorite console you should do a psp hunting challenge next

I need another video of you and Riff!!!

Thanks, Odama!

Thanks for posting early

It's a bit of a drive but traders world in Ohio is one of my favorite places to find games, it's a drive for me as well from Indiana but it's not furthest you've ever gone on the channel and it's a very cool experience

I hope you do an episode or series on the 2nd channel or something of you actually playing this stuff. This has added to driving up the prices of GC games and you actually playing them would be nice

The guy that works there sounds like he’s depressed lol

I am not a gamer but as a flipper I really like this series.

I still have Godzilla Destroy All Monsters bought it new back in the day crazy... Awesome game

Would love to see you got to this game store in Menasha WI called Press Start Games

Man I eye that Def Jam Everytime you find it in the wild. Still trying to find it as cheap as I did OG Def Jam ( got for 40 on Ebay PS2)

bruh that def jam game i had as a kid. i loved it xD cant believe its worth that much suddenly. I swear a few years ago it wasn't.

Another great video !!

Omg it’s looking good!

Do u plan on going to the Greenville game exchange convention in South Carolina

Immediate like upon seeing Def Jam Fight For New York. Had that game on PS2 back in the day, such a quality title!!! And the Frodo Nooo is worthy of a like too.

what’s next after the gamecube gambit is complete?
