"So, I'm getting a 'cube on Wednesday...."

Because of this £78.99 deal, I'm picking up a Gamecube and Luigi's Mansion. I'm going to get Metroid Prime off the internet for £24.99 brand new, and Tony Hawk's 4 for £20.

Thing is, I need some money, I've got about £60 so to raise more I'm selling my N64. I'm wondering how much you think I'll get for everything:

3 official controllers (boxed)
1 unofficial controller
N64 console (boxed)

The following games:

FIFA 98
World Cup 98
ISS 64
F1 World Grand Prix
Mario Golf
WWF No Mercy
Mace: The Dark Age
WWF Attitude
Turok 2: Seeds of Evil
Body Harvest
Mario Party
Pokemon Stadium
Madden 64
Goldeneye
The World is not enough
Mario Kart 64
Zelda: Ocarina Of Time
Nagano Winter Olympics
Jet Force Gemini
V-Rally 64
Wayne Gretzky's 3D hockey
Snowboard Kids
Wipeout 64
Banjo Kazooie


All Games have their original games and boxes, I've got a Gameboy emulator too.

Where would be the best place to trade it in, or sell it. If I were to try to trade it in in GAME how much do you think they would give??

I don't really want to use eBay.

Sorry for posting a long list of games, I just need to know if it will make enough money for me. I want about £80-£90, is this a realistic target?

Gamestation will give you loads too (about twice as much as game or more if it's antique.)

I should mention that I'm from Ireland, and that there are no GameStation stores here.

If GAME won't give you the cash, just get them to pricematch Argos.

Ok you should get around 200 pounds
I got 200 pounds for a unboxed console, 16 games and 2 controllers

From where?

I agree with Gerrid, don't sell the whole thing, maybe sell the bad games, but think how much you've loved it, how many hours you've played those games.

I never trade in a console, or a game I really like, cos 1 day I'll have kids, and I'll say 'Back in the day, we only had Mario 64, and Tombraider 1', etc.

I'd give you more than £80, just cos it's a silly low price for a peice of classic gaming history.

If you have to, you should go the Computer Exchange, Rathbone Place, London, and get credit against GC games, they're very fair.

Hmmmm, I suppose I could get rid of:

FIFA 98
World Cup 98
ISS 64
Mace: The Dark Age
WWF Attitude
Turok 2: Seeds of Evil
Body Harvest
Mario Party
Pokemon Stadium
Madden 64
Nagano Winter Olympics
V-Rally 64
Wayne Gretzky's 3D hockey

Hey, it was a good deal:

-N64: boxed, limited edition Goldeneye pack with Gold controller.
-The World Is Not Enough: boxed, with manual.
-Mario Tennis: boxed, with manual.
-Turok 2: boxed, with manual, plus strategy guide.
-Goldeneye 007: unboxed, with manual.
-Ocarina Of Time: unboxed, with manual.
-World Cup '98: unboxed, no manual.

Now THAT, is worth £65.00.

Mine is the normal box, from when it was released, everythin has original box and manual, even controllers.

I'd rather have the Old Skool set than a Golden Eye set anyday.

Will be worth more in future, cos collectors like the original, most NINTENDO branding.
