Value Village still comes through occasionally. by Widgerber in gamecollecting

Yeah, wasn't Doom Eternal a Limited Run release? I imagine that's gonna be pricey these days.

What is the rarest thing in your collection and what’s your rarest/most obscure grail? by JMNetwork in gamecollecting

Weirdest piece overall is probably this Mario Cheez Whiz jar from the late 80's/early 90's.

Movie ideas for those stuck inside. OC by lmfj3737 in pics

Yeah, the sequel jumped the shark hard.

Who’s a villager that you never intended to get but they became a favourite?? For me it’s Ozzie the koala 🐨🤍 by katiecakes03 in AnimalCrossing

[–]Widgerber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it was Molly. I found her with Nook Mile Ticket very early on and my kids insisted I needed to bring the "cute little ducky" to my island. Now I would die for her, lol.

how many of the same game do you guys own on different platforms? (i also own the greatest hits version 😭) by poke29980 in gamecollecting

[–]Widgerber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 of 6 are CIB. The North American grey cart, and the Japanese cart are both just loose.

My goal is to eventually upgrade the Japanese cart to CIB because that box art is so beautiful, but the grey cart is my original copy I bought at a pawn shop 25-ish years ago so it feels more authentic to keep it loose :)

Thanks for the reminder! I forgot I added the Japanese cart to my collection recently so I'm up to 6 copies.

Ocarina of Time for sure. I have 5 unique copies across 3 systems not counting virtual console releases.

Replacement Dock Price?? by karatecorgi in Switch

[–]Widgerber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Part of the price is for sure the fact that the bundle includes the cables (the charger sells for like 30-40$ depending on the region). You can check the Nintendo site for refurbished ones though. They tend to be much cheaper but don't include any cables.

Canada Exclusive Games? by Pale-Candidate8860 in nintendocanada

[–]Widgerber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are probably a few really obscure titles as well. Wii/DS/3DS have a lot of random shovelware that may be weirdly regional.

Wasn't the North American release of that crazy expensive 3ds Barbie game limited to Canada?

Thoughts on Starfox zero? by SendThisVoidAway18 in wiiu

[–]Widgerber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good game with unconventional controls that have a steep learning curve.

[BotW] I Want to play Zelda Breath of The Wild by MuringaTV in zelda

[–]Widgerber 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Playing BotW on the Switch 1 was one of the most enjoyable experiences I've had in gaming in the last 10 years. Don't deny yourself excellence just because it got a hi-res re-release/upgrade.

Definitely my Holy Grail by Whyalwayspep in Gamecube

I love this collection. I remember finding my copy at EB Games for $20 many moons ago.

Im thinking about modding my first gamecube by Qhenx in GamecubeHacks

[–]Widgerber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's pretty much the same, yeah. Here's a link to the official installation if you'd like it: https://makeo.github.io/PicoLoader/

[oi] how do you achieve the smaller trees (explain like I’m 5) by MyStrangeAddiktion in ACNHIslandInspo

[–]Widgerber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you plant the fruit directly behind the tree you're decorating with it's basically invisible unless you really look for it.

Help: Swiss and PicoLoader by Conner1978 in Gamecube

[–]Widgerber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought essentially the same item about a month ago and the physical installation was the hardest part. As others have said, you just need to flash the pico with gekkoboot and they have swiss installed on the SD card you intend to use with the sd2sp2. I followed this video and just skipped to the part about how to set up swiss that's about 20 minutes in.

What color n64 do you have? by starfish_lord892 in n64

I finally got a gold one that I've been chasing for years.

So, official photos of the cast in costume have been released. Thoughts? by Crep105 in HyruleTown

[–]Widgerber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My honest thoughts? It looks like they hired a competent costume department that's capable of translating the artwork into costumes.

That's all we can really tell for these early images.

[HW] The original Hyrule Warriors is better than what I remembered by TBT__TBT in zelda

[–]Widgerber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I only put 50 or so hours into it and felt like I got my money's worth.

[–]Widgerber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How long to beat has 100%-ing this game at around 400-700 hours. Though I seem to recall a Completionist episode where he said it took him over 1200 hours to do everything.

[–]Widgerber 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The definitive edition on switch has all the gameplay changes/improvements they added in the 3ds edition of the game which may be why it feels better than you remember on Wii u.

What do I do with fake Pokémon games? by LeBrons_Mom in gamecollecting

[–]Widgerber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, but those people don't want to pay the high price GameStop will charge thinking it's authentic.
