I Drove 300 Miles to Complete my GameCube Collection 

The gamecube challenge is what introduced me to your channel. Just randomly on my youtube I got recommended to the 1st episode and have been watching ever since. I can't believe the journey has ended. Its like watching the MCU movies from start to finish 😭

The fact I've watched every video feels like I've done this whole challenge with you. I don't have the funds to even afford 1 of these games so to be apart of this whole journey brought more then just nostalgia. Sad to see it end, but glad to be there every step of the way. One day I'll get my own copy of Paper Mario TTYD 😂

I loved this series, many channels including youself and even my cousin who collects, got me into collecting. It changed my persective on how we value things. It helps me with my family issues and gives me a calming mental thought on how video games give us valuable and amazing memorys of the past. Lately Ive been collecting all my childhood games and consoles ranging from NES upto modern games. The financial side of it has been covered because of channels like Caleb, Riff and even Rick. Ive learn to fix consoles to buy them cheap to flip to cover my collection fund and its growing big and fast without having to spend a dime from my own personal funds. Thanks, I mean it from my heart.

The Gamecube Gambit has been my favorite game collection/gaming related series ever. I found this series only a couple days after the first episode came out and fell in love instantly. The Gamecube is my favorite retro console so watching you grow the collection and the journey it took you on was just amazing. I can’t wait to see what’s next and look forward to supporting you for years to come. Congratulations and thank you for making going such an inspiring journey for us to enjoy!

I didn’t tear up from watching the end of this, what are you talking about??? For real, amazing series my man; the GameCube is my all time favorite console, and the physical representation of how I would escape from the world as a kid, so this series meant a lot to me, by proxy. Can’t wait to see what’s next, king 👑

My son who was a newborn 👶 and I started watching this series together in October. I don’t know what it was that made him watch maybe the editing or maybe just the journey 😆 or both. This series will for sure stick with me for a while. Thank you.

After watching every gamecube gambit when it released it honestly has been one of the most enjoyable series to watch on RU-vid! Thank you Caleb and thank you Riff!

Have my original GameCube games from back in the day, but Watching Spawnwave Start to collect GameCube games back in 2020, I started to collect again. Had over 250+ GameCube games I wanted the full collection. Well about 4 months into collecting I threw in the towel. The collection sat on my shelves for more than two years. I just recently sold it all to one guy for over 6K including a sealed Cubivore. I was happy it all went to one person. 😎👍✌️#Nostalgia

I remember when the first episode released and thinking it was such a cool premise and now seeing how much the channel has grown since is kind of astonishing. I'm sure the next series will be just as good if not better! Keep up the good work.

I was clapping when you bought the Paper Mario Promo Display that's such a dope pick-up, such a banger of an ending to an amazing era, gonna miss the Gamecube Gambit, cant wait to see what else you might have in store for future content , love how much work and love you put into the videos (you too Riff, love the editing)

Loveing this series edited: I'm going to miss GameCube gambit.

Editor riff is the one man that will never get fired for making fun of his boss

Beautiful ending to a fantastic series. The GCG series was my introduction to your channel and inspiration behind me starting my own video game collection, but for PS1 games. Thank you for what you do, and I'm looking forward to your future ideas and videos.

Been watching you go through this GameCube Gambit for months now. This has been such a fun adventure. This was a special series to watch seeing you go all over the US to make the collection of your dreams. You even convinced me to finally buy a GameCube of my own. Huge congrats, Kaleb.

The series finale of the century. Kaleb’s arc of nerdyness and commitment is incredible to watch, it’s so sad to say goodbye to all these characters

I still remember the first gamecube Gambit EP that was the first video I saw of yours and I haven't missed a video since. Not only does this channel help me with reselling but its entertaining as hell keep it up!

Congratulations Caleb. This series reignited my desire to collect my GameCube favorites from my childhood. Thank you.

I was not expecting to see pokemon master trainer in this video. I felt so much nostalgia when I saw that in this video. I remember not knowing how to play the game but just enjoying the contents and the pokemon pieces so much when I was a kid.

Gamecube Gambit really has been a huge boon and boost for your channel, but it has also been a booster for happiness for so many people, myself included. I love the adventures, the humor, and the relationships built through these videos. I look forward to seeing this collection's future, along with all the cool stuff you'll continue to do beyond this challenge. Thank you for awesome videos, Caleb, showing people how they can seize opportunities to finance their lives, but also to seize the opportunities that life gives to make new friendships and be part of the light in people's lives. Also, Riff, I love your edits and your channel, too. But you already knew that. LOL Keep up the great work, and your channel will continue to flourish, Caleb.

This was such a fun series to binge watch. Saw that the last episode was today and binge watched the whole thing today. You inspired me to start my own GameCube collection and I’m sad to see it end

Really sad to see this journey end, but it’s been an absolute joy to watch over the last 6 months. Thank you Caleb, Riff and everyone else involved ❤️

Loved watching your series and finding your RU-vid channel. I have a passion for videogames and the GameCube is probably my favorite videogame console of all time. Watching your journey reselling and finding these games from your childhood was amazing, I felt similar in finding those games in the wild myself whether in person or online. I’m 25 so I’m around your age and videogames were very special back then, nothing at all what they’re like now. I’ll continue to watch your channel and see your journey, but hopefully you can continue this series again at some point with variations to it or start another one!

Amazing that it only took 8 months to complete this challenge! Congrats Caleb! Can't wait for season 2!

Just finished watching the whole series. This gamecube challenge introduced me to not only your channel but also collecting nes ,snes, n64, gamecube, ps2 and xbox 360 games that are a big part of my childhood or even some games that I didn't get to play because I wasn't born yet. For that I would like to thank you. Love the videos and can't wait to keep watching more

Caleb really pushing this series lets go

I have to say Caleb, this channel and challenge have been the main reason i've gotten back into game collecting. My GC collection isn't nearly as robust as yours, but I'm definitely enjoying the hunt. Thanks for the series, and I look forward to seeing what's next for PR!

this is so insane. been here since the gex video and I just have enjoyed this series so much. I don't collect or even play video games much anymore, but I've loved watching you do it

Love this series, and this channel.

Dedication and purpose kept the channel going so hopefully you start a new journey soon. I like that channel because it’s always something new and not more of the same stuff.

I am actually very disappointed that after all this time you intend to just sell the collection.

2-3 months ago I looked up some GameCube game gameplays and stumbled across the GameCube gambit series. Love your channel and glad to have seen Riff’s account as well! GameCube over everything.

This series has literally made me start collecting gc games myself, So far I got melee, metroid prime 1, Luigi’s mansion, double dash, and Pikmin 1 along with Mario sunshine in the 3d allstars pack, loving all the games because imo gc has the greatest library of any Nintendo or console in general

I Just want to say that this was pretty emotional I remember starting to watch the gamecube gambit when covid started and I lost alot of friends and family to covid but your videos on this series helped me alot and also convinced me to buy gamecube games lol Im sad to see this series end but I am excited to see whats next friend !

Man I must be an emotional wreck because the end of the video had me legit crying..... Thank you for everything Caleb! Your journey has brought so many amazing feelings and emotions watching the chase. It's only fitting the last feeling I have is of sadness 😭😭😭

After finding your channel months ago, this is the series that got me hooked to your channel. It sucks that the GameCube Gambit is now finished but I can’t wait until we get another series like this or maybe additions to it in the near future again! Congrats on finally completing the GameCube collection of your childhood dreams!

I hope that inner childhood in ya is super proud. This was a crazy journey man, can not wait to see what you have planned next! And uhhhhh if you got a killer deal on pokemon box 👀

I literally started watching from episode #2 you popped up randomly on my for you and been hooked ever since I’m glad you completed your list definitely excited for the future

From one life long gamer to another, I am so freaking happy for you. Things like this is what it is all about. Keeping the child inside yourself alive. Caleb my friend, you have definitely done that for me through this series and I've never played a GameCube game. Congrats my man.

Great series Caleb, thank you for all the entertainment. I’m excited to see the next series. Also great editing Riff!

I actually have that ddr Mario mix big box with the pad. And for some odd reason I have 3 extra copy’s case/manual/disk 😂

THANK YOU for the months of incredible content and editing! While im extremely sad to see this series come to and end, I hope you consider doing the same style of a collection challenge with Wii/Ps3 games!

Congrats man. This was one of the best series

Dang, I stopped watching at around episode 8 and came back when you got Pokemon Box (absolutely crazy btw), and now its finished. Never thought you could do it, thank you for proving me wrong. 😄

This was interesting to watch, and I'm sure you'll enjoy whatever challenge you put up for yourself next. Maybe go outside the wheelhouse a bit - a Sega system perhaps? Same parameters - only expected profit, and complete if possible. Dreamcast would be a fun one

This challenge is what got me to your channel. Made me want to build my over own PS2 PS1 collection for myself. To see it come to end is sad but makes me feel satisfied.

You should have a live stream playing all of them

Thanks for taking us on your journey Caleb. I know myself and many more people really enjoyed it. Congratulations on completing the GameCube Gambit.

the end of an era 👀

This challenge is what introduced me to you and got me interested in the game market and introduced me to whatnot it's been a crazy journey and im sad but happy to see it complete and it was epic every step of the way congrats

I’m not crying….. you’re crying… In all seriousness, what a journey this was Caleb. Thank you for taking us all on it with you.

i loved this series, im glad you reached your goal and had so many great experiences and met so many awesome people on the way.

The gamecube gambit is what put this channel on my radar. I've loved this channel a ton ever since. I hope you continue to create challenges for yourself because that's what makes the videos fun! That and the nostalgia. I'd like to see you play some of the games, maybe you could stream them or something. Or do collections for other consoles. You could do super gambit 64! Either way, I'll be coming back to these videos for the Riff, the Caleb dude with the funny glasses, and the games of my childhood, in that order.

Watching this from the very start has been so dope, great seeing the channel growth! So much nostalgia, loved seeing all the video game stores you've gone to not many nowadays

One of your finest videos, Caleb. It's hard to believe the gambit is over but I really enjoyed the videos. I look forward to seeing what's next!

I’m going to miss this series!!! Thank you for the last few months!!

I cannot believe this!!! I live a half mile from retro game rescue and go to all these stores!!! Depressed I wasn’t there when you visited I hoped you loved my hometown!

So I just benched this whole series and man it's been so AMAZING! I love this so much because it's my dream to do the same collection. But due to covid and not being able to bounce back like we planned. It's just so awesome to just watch. Thank you!

Found your channel because of the GameCube gambit and loved absolutely all of it. Ik you put a pole up a while back about a PS2 challenge and I for one would absolutely love that lol. Didn’t have a GameCube but my first console was a ps2 in 2004 and fell in love. Happy hunting buddy!

I had forgotten my own love for retro games until I found your channel! Since then I’ve been not only binging your channel but also the NES Pursuit. Glad to have witnessed the GameCube Gambit in it’s entirety and thank you and Riff for re-igniting my love for retro games! Can’t wait to see what’s next!

I still remember commenting my gc collection on your first gc gambit video. What an amazing series. And an amazing end.

I love to see you up around stl, I live about 10 minutes from trade n games and they are just amazing people up there and they always a fair price on their stuff up there

LOVE this channel. LOVE this series. And LOVE what this experience has represented to Caleb, Editor Riff and, all of us fans watching :) Can't wait for the PlayStation Challenge videos to start!

I discovered your channel through this series and really empathized with it, as I never personally owned a GameCube growing up and used to play it to death at my friend's houses. Now I'm an adult and have my own GameCube but do not have the capacity to build a collection like you have, so thank you for sharing for all to enjoy!!

From randomly being suggest your video on day 1 to the end is bliss. Hurts to see it go but im happy you've completed the collection of your dreams!

Congratulations and thank you for allowing us to be part of your journey! Looking forward to the next adventure! Gaming for life!

Congratulations on getting the last 2 gamecube games!!! Now you can go for the full collection of Gamecube Games. After that the next step is every NES, SNES, N64, and all the other systems. Once you acquire everything you can officially open your own game store.

Dude. I was here for the entire journey. So sad to see it end. I can’t wait to see what is in store for you next!

My favorite part of these videos is always when you put the games on the shelf. When the retro beat comes in, there’s just something about it.

Proud of you man! I’m not that much of a gamer myself but I definitely enjoy watching your videos. Gives me good positive vibes!

Great series, The GameCube gambit is how I found your channel, its been a journey, amazing to watch and experience all of the friendships and absolute steals you've gotten using skills you've attained over the years collecting games. Thankyou!

Well that ending was emotional.. Glad you manage to complete it in the end.

What a great journey! Got introduced to the channel by seeing the first episode of the gambit in my recommendations and have been here since. Congratulations!

Damn little sad this series is coming to an end. So many good memories of watching you try to complete your collection. Cant wait to see what series you have in store for us next.

I have watched quite a few RU-vid challenges and this one was awesome! Truly enjoyed. I'm very excited to hear that you will do more like it! Keep up the great content.

Congratulation man! Thanks for taking us on this awesome journey! Enjoy your games!

I started watching this the day episode one was uploaded and to see you complete it is absolutely amazing. Congrats Caleb

Awesome videos man you really made me nostalgic and just seeing all the old games was such a pleasure thank you for doing what you do and can’t wait to see what else you have in store

This series got me into your channel. It has been so much fun watching this wonderful adventure down memory lane unfold. I was so happy to see the game i suggested in you last video get picked up in the Final gamecube gambit video. Much love, catch you on the flip 🥰🥹

Ngl I've been watching you way longer than the GameCube gambit but I nearly cried at the end I'd love to see you expand your search on the GameCube collection maybe make a 2nd list of 25 games your after in the GameCube world to be a full 100 or even start on another console of nostalgia

Congratulations on a wonderful collection. Excited for the next one and to see what you choose to keep.

Loved this series brought so much joy and happy memories ❤️ thank you for this

Wow!!! day 1 fan forsure right here. i remember it was during Covid-19 times i started to tune in your gamecube videos and Honestly this video gave me chills bc Gamecube my childhood gamesystem.

Alex is an awesome dude, I live in STL and stopped in to check out the shop, one of the best stores in the area and a great selection. Happy to see you achieve your goal and excited to see the next steps in your journey.

I discovered your channel when the gamecube gambit had only 2 episodes. It's been a ride. Great content, keep it up. Proud of you!

I found your channel at the beginning of this series and I absolutely loved the series and your channel in general. Fantastic work to you Caleb and Riff for his editing. Looking forward to another collection series! Maybe do a poll to see what system to collect next!

An Awesome video series, this was what made me start watching you in the first place. It's sad it's coming too an end, but i loved every second of this series!!! ❤️

Found this series at about the 10th video went back watched the first up to the tenth and never stopped congratulations on completing your collection hope you start another challenge 👍

Loved the gamecube gambit series, inspired me to start retro game hunting for the original xbox! Thanks for the vids and the inspiration to keep being creative!!

I love this series from start to finish !

can't believe you started this series at 50k subs, didn't even notice the growth until you mentioned it because I was just having fun watching. Reminded me of being a kid again looking at all the new gamecube games

So I recently got into this channel and it made me want to get a gamecube too. It's a console I always wanted as a kid but never had until now. Thanks alot. Loving your channel.

I found this channel in December 2021 and I have to say watching each of the videos of this series as the released really felt like a journey and got me involved. I had not seen such an entertaining series on RU-vid for a long time. Congratulations to both you and Riff and thank you for the fun and enjoyment your videos brought to me. Keep up the amazing work, this truly is a great channel.

I'm sad lol this was my favorite series to watch I love GameCube and watching you from start to finish finding all these games!!

Extreme Skate with the “Grow Up” song video intro from Simple Plan, good times 😌, takes me back to my childhood

Man I’ve watched the whole series! Really made me want to add more to my collection, really happy you got all 75 games! It was a really good series! Keep it going always enjoy your content!

I remember when you had to place your games on your wife’s shelf. It’s been a journey. Sad to see it come to an end but excited for what next. Hope you do keep those expensive/rare games for your own collection.

This has been the best series on youtube for me! growing up on the gamecube it brought back so many memories for me!! i need to get out and find some of these for myself!

good job Phoenix! i cant believe you finished the list! i hope you have a great day!

What an epic journey you've taken us on. It's sad that it has come to and end. HOLY CRAPOLY that is one nice collection.

All good things must come to an end, excited to see what’s next!!!
