Very well done ! Camera angle and the alternative black and white touch was top notch . These prices are insane , really . Very well edited and great production, the quality just keeps getting better and better
Thanks so much Loco. We are really paying attention to camera settings and playing around with the angles so I’m happy it’s being well received :) The prices are nuts....I keep wondering when the bubble will finally burst 🤷🏼♀️
Fun video to watch. Be it that this is a Xbox video, just curious if you guys purchased the Hyperkin Duke for the newer Xbox? I did and am glad to have it. Love how it powers up in the center of the controller, that never gets old.
Scott and I were just talking about that last night, (he may have seen your comment) but they actually sell them at our local pawn shop so you’ll probably see it in our collection soon enough 😁
Haha good to see Otogi 2 cracking the top 10! 2 months ago I bought 2 sealed ones from Deal Tavern for like $43 each. And yes, I bought 2 because it was criminally underpriced for an unreal original Xbox game produced by From Software. Interestingly, Otogi 1, sealed, was already $150+. The price gap made no sense.
Hi retro rivals I am a new subscriber and I am from St.Johns Newfoundland I love all of your content I was born in the 80s so everything that you put on your channel is what I grew up on.
Hey Jamie! That’s awesome. So many Canadians have been finding us lately, we love it! I was born in the 80’s too but Scott’s a hippie and was born in the 70s lol
Cool video, I love seeing different prices of games. Even though I am in UK, its still cool to see and compare the different prices you should add £ prices too for your UK viewers 😜 (just kidding). I have 2 of the games on the list....but both on PS2, godzilla and outrun. Cheers 🙂
Lol I thought about adding UK prices too actually lol OH a the editing process lol. We have outrun as well on PS2, and it might have to stay that way 😜
Nice list. For me Daemon Vector will always be the hardest xbox game to get. Basically none existent on ebay and the only one I found for sell in the last year was for 500.
This is my first video I'm watching from your YT channel. This is very informative and Thank You for making this video. I got a question and it's not mean or harsh sorry if it comes off like that when my intentions are not. Why does the video go back and forth to black and white to color? I'm just curious please let me know.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate. We really enjoy making UA-cam videos having fun and if you can learn something from us at the same time, that's cool too. As far as going back and forth between black and white to color I artistically was just trying something. The secondary camera was not as good as the primary but since this making this video. We do have a double of our primary so now we don't do that as much or at all even LOL. Never any concern on our end about being mean or harsh. If it's constructive criticism or a question, we always welcome it
We play on the original system probably about 50% of the time. Scott sometimes doesn’t have a choice but to play og hardware even if it’s backwards compatible because I’m hogging the big screen lol
Wild! I only have Stubbs from that list (MvC2 I have on the ps2)...maybe paid $30 CAD back in the day for it, probably wouldnt want to pay much more than that today if I didn't already have it lol.
Over the last few months I’ve been collecting for the original Xbox and have done extensive research. I’ve found that steel battalion isn’t the most expensive game for the original Xbox. It’s actually NBA Ballers (Platinum Hits) but good luck finding that game cause it’s extremely, extremely rare. There’s other games on the console I would consider more valuable but sites like price charting and game value now don’t know this. Maybe I should make a video about this? Love the show!
Yes clipmode that would be a great idea! We found the list a bit faulty too but went with what we found. I’d love to see it. Please let us know, will be sure to check it out. Thanks for watching :)
Video Games, Trading Cards, lots of stuff spiked up in price due to covid. People needed something to do during lockdown. maybe once we get back to normal the prices will sink?
ive been on youtube since 2004..have my own channel with almost 1000 videos..literally live on youtube..and ive NEVER seen this channel pop up before.Like literally, NEVER ...lol..crazy how that happens..nice video. I still have my day one launch "first in line" Xbox,mem card,Halo CE,and remote with receiver. Love it.
Isn't that crazy!? It's been the same for us, finding channels that we've never heard. I blame the algorithm! That is amazing. Still have the box and everything?
@@RetroRivals i have the box but its in horrible condition from it being in the shed..heat and humidity killed it.I cant bring myself to throw it away lol...i still have the paperwork too..
@@RetroRivals he is a Facebook marketplace seller I bought some ps2 games from all good quality it’s priced for $95 if you wanna check yourself I’m from Winnipeg MB and he is also willing to ship
That price for Futurama is crazy! Over here in Bonny Scotland you can get the PAL version for about $10. Hope you're still keeping up with UA-camr of the Month, apparently this months winner is the most awesome Scotsman you've ever seen 🤣
Oh that’s an amazing price! I’ll admit I haven’t watched that one yet but that’s awesome. I’m definitely going to check it out! Need to vote for this month too!
Going into this video, the only games I had thought of as being the most expensive were Futurama and Jurassic Park Operation Genesis. Was I right? Well, now I know. If you don't know yet, go ahead and watch the video to find out. A lot of these titles I knew were more expensive, but didn't know where they ranked.
The Jurassic park game fell #11 CIB and #8 loose but honestly that could totally change in a month, next week, tomorrow lol. So much fluctuation in the game market
We definitely need to play through the rest of Halo 2, but we absolutely loved our experience with the first one.... Minus the last mission where Scott almost lost his mind 😂😂
Ebay Sets the Market Price Charting doesn't. Price charting is always way lower than open market or atleast more often than not. I just bought both Godzilla Games and Fatal Frame 2 all mint complete in Box I did not pay close to what those prices are for either Godzilla game From a Retro store in Canada 2 months ago and Fatal Frame 2 was the most expensive. Both Godzilla Games were like $50 complete and Fatal Frame 2 cost at the time what both Godzilla games did combined no Tax.
Yes absolutely. The problem with trying to pull some sort of consistency from eBay would be tracking sold games for a certain time frame and then trying to come up with an average. Where in Canada are you!?! We’re in Moncton NB :) Nice to see another Canadian in the group Oh for sure, when we can get our hands on one for a decent price it’ll definitely go in the collection and we will be sure to give it a fair shake.
I bet! We still haven’t come across it. Otogi 2, Bloody Roar Extreme and mvc2 have still alluded us. Hopefully we will see them soon and I’m not against trading towards them. Was it worth it?
@@RetroRivals spending $130 for a piece of my childhood I guess i can say it was worth it. But I don't see that MVC2 getting any cheaper.so I had to close my eyes and hit the buy now! Button 👇⌨️😭
i hate it , when people say that they for everything for free in their collection ( S J R🙄🙄) and with the same breath r proud of , ohh.. this Game is 500 now.. if I sell it. it isn't 500 jn your collection, because u don't know what u got when h sell it. great vids u both have done 🤘. does anyone cares about the worth they have when not selling it?? I have a Sealed Border Down, Ikaruga , Zanac x Zanac and a couple more.. and I don't care about the net worth, I care about the titles I want to play. DONE 🤣🤣🤣
It actually fell on #11 on the list CIB and #8 loose. According to price charting. And I know I know, price charting doesn’t really reflect eBay prices but it would have been hard to narrow down eBay prices? Do we do an average of the last 10 sold? Do we go by most current. We were surprised it didn’t fall in the top 10 as well tbh.
That's cool, I go to the flee market alot and found 2 for 15$ cib and I'm a Hugh og xbox fan found 2 copies of otogi 1 and 1 copy of otogi 2 for 30$. flee markets are fun.
Funny you mention people that HATE these types of videos and blame them for games being expensive and rare, on one of my rare and expensive GameCube games video someone went off in the comments about that. It is such a stupid take and there is zero evidence to suggest that it is true. What makes a game rare and expensive is typically either one of 2 thing, a low print run or they are in super high demand or a combination of the 2. But UA-cam videos are not the main reason for increased demand that is just nonsense
Very well done ! Camera angle and the alternative black and white touch was top notch . These prices are insane , really . Very well edited and great production, the quality just keeps getting better and better
Thanks so much Loco. We are really paying attention to camera settings and playing around with the angles so I’m happy it’s being well received :)
The prices are nuts....I keep wondering when the bubble will finally burst 🤷🏼♀️
Great vid and loving the editing. Multiple angles :)! Boom!. Cheers
Thanks so much :)
We may have taken a bit of inspiration from a favourite channel of ours that does some pretty slick videos and editing 😉
Awesome episode... super Jelly over that Futurama!
Got lucky on eBay with that one. Not a crazy amazing price but hard to find and better than I’ve seen
i have Godzilla Save the Earth and it was like maybe 10 or 20 bucks when i bought it couple years ago. Nuts!
Holy shit!!!! I wish we could see it here for a half decent price. What’s your thoughts on the game play?
@@RetroRivals oh i haven't played it.😄 I probably haven't played 70% of my og Xbox collection.😀
@@BeyondUselessMedia bahahahaha same with us with most of our games 🙈
Another great video! Loving all the Xbox vids!
Thanks so much Amanda! We have quite a few more planned for the year and a big collection video
Fun video to watch. Be it that this is a Xbox video, just curious if you guys purchased the Hyperkin Duke for the newer Xbox? I did and am glad to have it. Love how it powers up in the center of the controller, that never gets old.

Great video!! Hopefully I can find a copy of futurama and def jam!!!
Yes! They are both climbing in price like crazy! Thanks so much for watch Rick Ricki
Great video. Love these videos!
Thanks so much EZ
Another fun video, I recently checked my games list and was shocked by how expensive some of them have become.
We recently put our entire collection in the price charting app and I’m kind of in disbelief myself!
Great video I had no idea that some of those games were worth that much
We were surprised too!
Haha good to see Otogi 2 cracking the top 10! 2 months ago I bought 2 sealed ones from Deal Tavern for like $43 each.

@@RetroRivals he is a Facebook marketplace seller I bought some ps2 games from all good quality it’s priced for $95 if you wanna check yourself I’m from Winnipeg MB and he is also willing to ship
Curious what app do you guys use to keep track of your video game collecting?
We use price charting.
Does that keep track of what you have in your collection? So you don’t double up on games?
@@Uncle_Retro84 it does that as well as takes stock of value of our collection. We used to use a different app but this one seems better :)
I still need many of those for my exclusive collection! Prices are so damn high on the remaining titles.
It’s simply ridiculous and I don’t know how we would collect if it weren’t for having two jobs or the ability to pick up extra hours.
That price for Futurama is crazy! Over here in Bonny Scotland you can get the PAL version for about $10. Hope you're still keeping up with UA-camr of the Month, apparently this months winner is the most awesome Scotsman you've ever seen 🤣
Oh that’s an amazing price! I’ll admit I haven’t watched that one yet but that’s awesome. I’m definitely going to check it out! Need to vote for this month too!
i bought mvc2 in 2012 for 80 bucks from GAMESTOP used and my 6 year old stepped on it and cracked it in half!
