So about two years ago I purchased a load of GCN games from eBay. These were GCN games that I used to own back when I had a GCN. I have no idea why but I hadn't beaten or completed any of them back when I had a GCN. After buying them, about six months later, I sold them all so that I could afford a 3DS. Sadly, I didn’t enjoy the handheld experience and decided to sell the 3DS about nine months after. Over the past few weeks I have purchased all of the GCN games from eBay again – but this time I know that I’ll keep them (and beat/complete them). I’ll be purchasing a Wii U with NL and NSMBU at the end of the month. Even with the possibility of GCN games being available through the Wii U VC I much prefer physical media. I’ve used the Wii VC to purchase NES, SNES and N64 games and so with these newly purchased GCN games I have a console (Wii) that is five consoles in one! So, these are the games that I’ve purchased so far.
F-Zero GX
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
Ikaruga
Killer7
The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Luigi’s Mansion
Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour
Mario Kart: Double Dash!!
Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes
Resident Evil
Resident Evil 4
Resident Evil Zero
Sonic Mega Collection
SSX 3
Star Fox Adventures
Super Mario Sunshine
Viewtiful Joe
Wario Ware Inc
Wave Race: Blue Storm
I am also going to purchase the following games when I can find them in very condition on eBay.
Animal Crossing
Beyond Good & Evil
Eternal Darkness Sanity’s Requiem
Kirby Air Ride
The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition
Mario Power Tennis
Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door
Resident Evil 2
Resident Evil 3: Nemesis
Super Smash Bros. Melee
I found a load of brand new GCN replacement cases on eBay so any of the single disc games have brand new cases and as a result are in immaculate condition. The two disc games have been purchased in like new condition, so were a lot more expensive.
I’d be interested to hear of any recommendations of games that I haven’t purchased or do not currently have in my to-buy list.
Same here, never completed Crash 1 as a kid though. The Ruin levels scared me... ^^"
Crash Bandicoot hasn't shown up for a couple of years now; and now that I'm a Nintendo fan, it makes me wonder what Nintendo could do with Crash if they were to buy the series from whoever has it right now...

As @ogo79 said, the SNS-RZ-USA is a prime giveaway that it's not a legit retail cart.
And yes, he is (usually) always right, and he is (almost) the sexiest gamer out there (not counting me) ;)
Like a Pheonix reviving from it's ashes I have finally made a new retro purchase. Went to a swap meet/garage sale thing and got 2 games.
F-Zero and Mighty Morphing Power Rangers for the SNES!
I finally bought Zone of the Enders: The Fist of Mars for the Game Boy Advance. Cost me $16 cart only. I remember a time when I could've gotten it for $6. Oh well, it'll be worth the money.
got some snes and genesis controller repair kits just to have around...

Bought Brave Fencer Musashi. The Manager was there, who was kind enough to give me a discount of $35 Disc-only...which is still way more than it goes for on eBay. Oh well, at least I got it.
After experiencing the awesome Castle of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse (via RetroGen), I decided to order another Genesis game. What better game to buy and play next than its sequel World of Illusion starring Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck?
So far I like it! I love my RetroGen! hugs RetroGen
