I have no use for my Gamecube, would you get like 30 dollars for it or something?

Also, can you tell me about how much you'd get for a PS2/Xbox?

I'm guessing you live in the US since you mentioned Gamestop, but at the EB I work at in Canada, we give $10 for it, I know its a joke, so just sell it on ebay or just keep it cause it will be considered retro soon.

For a PS2 fat system you'd get $15 and $30 for a slim, and $15 for an xbox.

They test the systems, and if you have done ANY type of modification to it, they wont take it. I don't believe in that, as when I see they have done some moding, I give them a little bonus for it (Doesn't happen often so I can get away with it)

Its not worth trading it in, I am sure there is an easier way to get $10.

Hi, I live in Canada andI recently sold my Gamecube at EbGames. The console itself was only worth 10$, each controller 6$, and the games worth varies. Example : Fire emblem was worth 17$, Super smash was worth 23$, and Animal Crossing, only 8$.

With all my games, I got 138$ of store credit, so I bought games for the 360 I'm getting today : Oblivion GOTY and NHL 08.

AndI thought all I had was worth 75$...

Don't let them rip you off. Sell it on Ebay, keep it, or give it to a younger family member or something.

sell it to someone on here, or over at CAG, you can probably get a decent trade for it over there

I just flat out wouldn't trade it in at all. Gamestop I will say is kinda highway robbery with their trade ins, and avoid buying that expensive rare gem there too. If you've got a Game Crazy nearby, go there to buy instead. I once almost bought Eternal Darkness from gamestop for almost $40, and I got it at Game crazy for $10.

gamestop tends to take into account how rare a game is when it comes to their pricing. Game crazy will usually just take the age of the game into account, and given that Eternal Darkness was form '02, they priced it $10, because it's almost 6 years old.

They are selling them used for $29, so i doubt you would get anything over $10 for it.

why bother trading it in if you're not gonna get barely anything for it? is it really worth trading in a system and a whole bunch of games for one or two new games? i dont think so.

Yea depending on what condition its in you could probably get 20 if your lucky. I would just keep it though. Its not really worth selling.
