What the fuck went wrong

People sold all their copies so the price dropped as the supply increased. This trend happens with a lot of retro since people sell their old copies when they see the prices
>>
Prices have dropped since the remake came out?

Not many people bother to sell their copies giving the false impression of general scarcity, prices go up due to hype or other factors, people see the price spike, market is flooded with copies as people who wouldn't bother selling at $50 now list their copy for $100, market is flooded, prices go back down.
Same thing happened with MUH KIDDY SURVIVAL HORRO Piglet game. Absolutely dirt cheap game, so cheap that hardly anybody bothers to sell their copies because it isn't worth the effort for just $10, game becomes a twitter meme, people run to ebay to buy the hot thing, only see a few copies, price starts spiking as people capitalize on the fad, some copies sell for stupid amounts, this attracts even more sellers, market gets flooded, prices start to go back down.
Obviously prices haven't fully returned to their pre-fad levels, and maybe they never will, but I assume they will continue to trend downward over the next year.

I swear to god I just seen a YouTube video of a zoomer who botched making a portable Wii or some shit to play TTYD show he paid like $120 for his copy from a local store

Looks like it might have been the remake, or anticipation of the remake. It doesn’t always work like that, but I’m happy to see it.

The demake destroyed its reputation

People played its remake and finally remembered how objectively bad gamecube games are after a decade of cubies attempting to gaslight the internet into thinking they’re good

trvke
similar thing happened with mario 3d all stars
>cubie zoomers hype up shitshine for years pretending its not actually le bad and only 64boomers hate it because muh nostalgia
>nintendo releases a compilation of old mario games for its anniversary
>everyone starts with shitshine because they never played it probably due to how unlikable the gc and its low quality games are
>everyone is immediately faced with cringe voice acting, cringe cutscenes, poor controls, no long jump, irrelevant fludd upgrades, 30fps in a platformer, boring beach environments copy and pasted, shit minigames, blue coins, pachinko, etc
>nintendo has to pull the digital version from the storefront due to the backlash from sunshine's terribleness
many such cases. it's funny every other nintendo console's software as been available ala carte through virtual console, but cubie games are only allowed through a subscription service so you can't refund them after you realized how not good they are lol

The irrational hatred for the GameCube on this board is honestly hilarious.
Enjoyed replaying Double Dash and Baten Kaitos, currently enjoying Path of Radiance.
