Not sure how comments are saying SoulSilver is worth 20 when it's all over the internet between 150 and 200?


30-percentnotbanana

Cause it's a fake SoulSilver. Real ss used a different plastic for it's cart due to the IR blaster for the pokewalker.

a_bearded_hippie

I don't think it's fake. If you look at the bottom left corner of the cart, you can see the purplish see-through of the IR cart.


30-percentnotbanana

Maybe it's just the lighting, but it should look like Pokemon black in that same picture.


muzakx

I think you're right. It's the only cartridge with the CE stamp. If the original owner was in the EU, they'd all be stamped.


a_bearded_hippie

Silver is also the Euro version. I think the labels are almost exactly the same except for the USA and EUR designation in the corner and the Nintendo seal is different. You can't actually tell in this picture if the Black version has the IR cartridge, but the silver the light is hitting it so you can see that the plastic is slightly see-through, which is the IR plastic they used for those games. Edit, here's one that was verified legit and it looks the same as the one OP posted. https://www.reddit.com/r/gameverifying/s/dkL6u9cm2P


Campin_Corners

Easiest way to check is the serial number on the image and it has to match the one printed on back of cartridge. If they don’t match it’s fake.


-HawaiianSurfer

No, it’s a legit SS.


glockcomatose

It's a yard sale, my guy. I highly doubt some kids parents are spending their time sneaking in some fake cards to their kids old games 🤣


ob_knoxious

I mean I unknowingly had some bootleg DS games growing up. I think I even bought one from the GameStop used shelf. By the time the 3DS roller around bootleg games were very much in circulation at game stores.


Sgt_Doom

It’s not fake. It’s just a European version.


beanwiggin420

Black is like 90. Wow, silver is that much? I have heart Gold and soul silver near mint in box with their pokewalkers never used.


a_bearded_hippie

I picked up White CIB at half price books for 85 and thought I got a pretty good deal on it.


tylerjehenna

HGSS CIB is even more than what people are saying


Diligent-Baby-3805

Bruh, you have near mint boxed set? You have literally hundreds of dollars in just those two games lol you've already got a fantastic collection just by having those two haha


beanwiggin420

Diligent-Baby-3805

Absolutely brilliant! They'll only go up in value as well.


CoraxtheRavenLord

Sit on that like it’s gold and watch the value rise over time.


timbolonius

Lucky! I lost my pokewalker. Heart broken over it


Hiro_of_Lunar

CIB on those are for sure a few hundred


Cakeisalyer

It's also EU version. So ~$45-70


Drunk_Psyduck

Why is Soul Silver a random European copy? Lol


zSmileyDudez

I’ve gotten EU copies of game off Amazon at times for the DS and the Switch. Sometimes that’s just what’s available or sometimes it’s even cheaper than the US version.


SnowTheMemeEmpress

Oh absolutely, was looking for a heart gold or soul silver cart and the cheapest on eBay was the European copy, with box (although box was in Spanish or French, the cartridge was in English) of HeartGold for 150 dollars


Diligent-Baby-3805

Yup! I got the EU version of Mario Odyssey off amazon cause it was nearly $15 cheaper haha


beanwiggin420

That is very weird! Nice eye.


jtm7

Seriously, I would have paid 20 just for Mario kart and nightmare in Dreamland lol. I'm set with my Everdrive, but I want to play those multiplayer lol


beanwiggin420

Lmao, those were the first two games I tested.


Eddie_Nugget

Online got shut down already


jtm7

I don't believe the GBA ever had online play lol


Eddie_Nugget

Oh oops i didn't see they were gba games


dr_cow_9n---gucc

I suppose you can retire now lmao. Just the two Pokemon games are $200-250.


beanwiggin420

Wouldn't that be nice. Retirement hahah.


sisyphus_is_rad

That's crazy how much that's jumped in price. I still have the pokewalker with my copy of heart gold.


FendaIton

What do you think


beanwiggin420

That I really want a 3Ds so I can play new leaf. I love animal crossing.


ForkInToasterr

you cooked, $20 for all this is a steal. pokemon soul silver and super circuit are two games you couldve paid $20 for individually. big win my friend


a_bearded_hippie

Checked prices in awhile? Soul Silver and Heart Gold are crazy. Be lucky to find one for under 100 lately.


beanwiggin420

I was happy once I saw new leaf. Now I need a 3ds


Ormxnd

Damn bro! What a steal! Huge W.


Healthy_Jackfruit_88

Even if some of them are bootlegs you still made out like a bandit.


KingLoCoKev

The fact that you got black, soul silver and kirby says you Won. Black loose is worth between 60-100 and soul silver between 150-200 loose.


GrindW8t

SoulSilver is a PAL version. It's between 65 -110$ loose. Still a lot of money.


Showtime504

What is a PAL versuon


GrindW8t

The one sold in Europe basically.


ohhcae

I'm jealous of you getting Black for so little 😭 I had to rebuy it for $80 cause I got rid of my copy as a dumb teen 😔


beanwiggin420

I regret giving my pink ds away with some games I can't even remember the name of. I know one was Wario ware touched.


ohhcae

I gave away my original ds and kept my ds lite. Unfortunately, I messed the lite up when trying to replace the power switch 💀


ToxicTammy42

You got really lucky getting all of those games. Either the seller didn’t know how valuable the games were or the seller was the mom who was getting rid of their kid’s games or the seller was a jilted ex and was selling the games out of spite


beanwiggin420

I think it was a dad getting rid of his daughters games. All the save files say crystal.


Practical-Simple-921

That's an awesome find. Congrats!


Bob64_reddit

HOOOOOOWW ❗❗❗


Winter_Letterhead524

you got scammed but luckily i can buy it off you


Another_Road

You did so well that I’m going to accuse you of lying


ukiyo__e

Nah. Lots of (especially older) people don’t understand how prices on games can go up after they buy it. And yard sales are meant to be very good prices


-------yoshi-------

How did I do!? You obviously know you got the steal of the century why even ask it like that

beanwiggin420

I robbed those people and I am taking your meme.


GabeGault

I dream of finds like this at night


Peaksign9445122

I’m crying 😭


Ok_Season5846

Did you hold them at gun point for this price too?


beanwiggin420

I wondered around their sale that was mostly old pez containers never opened, I grabbed his kk slider and Tom nook ones he had, some other board games, hello kitty collectable, coke a cola stuff and a lonely case that said 3DS on it. I opened up the case wondering if it had the system in it and it just had games in it. I asked how much for the case with the games and he said 20$. I have a feeling they were his kids games and he valued the older collectibles more than those.


DanteQuill

You have chosen... Wisely


AruarianGroove

Kirby dreamland and Mario kart are solid… Nintendogs was very much advertised and is worth messing with for a bit


beanwiggin420

I can't touch that one. My last dog that passed was a dachshund.


Muscled_Manatee

That Nintendogs definitely has a dead dog in the backyard…


retro_1_1

The fact that you were able to get games to begin with is wild these days. Those Pokemon games will make you your money back many times over. Even if you sell just one of them. Congrats


RadiantRing

You robbed those ppl


bigbaby21

These could all be fake and it’s still worth $20


Grouchy-Geologist-28

Shit I should probably check on my dog


TelfTelf

How did you do? You, sir, are a highway robber!


EdwardJMunson

Pretty poorly. That lot is worth MAYBE $10 in mint condition. 


FFL_SoMA

Fake SS or not, a steal of a deal gameplay wise, you’ll be busy for a long time with this spread, nice job OP


beanwiggin420

It looks like this one, so I feel it is real. https://www.reddit.com/r/gameverifying/s/dnZWUrQco1


ZinStarz

Nice find fuck you :)


BrahmariusLeManco

Soul Silver or Black alone recoups your money and then some.


HopeIcanChangeThisl

You had much better luck than me this weekend for sure. This was my only pickup after 2 days https://preview.redd.it/fbi9mqz6uv2d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=676555ed8590704f553a76b2d81d0c9d827d6d05


beanwiggin420

I also picked up an xbox 360 for 10$ with gta5 in the case. Sadly, there is no power brick, so I don't know if it works.


Chizubark

What do you think.


SillyString4Me

Those poor Nintendogs have been dead a long time.


EnzeruAnimeFan

You don't need to flex so hard 😭


superultralegendary

Amazing! i forgot Sims Apartment Pets existed. Kirby Superstar Ultra and Mario & Luigi Bowser's Inside Story are some of my favorite games of all time


CohnJena68

"How did I do?" How did I do? Holy fuck. You did excellent.


MookSmilliams

Super Circuit my beloved 😍


beanwiggin420

I played that alot last night. The boo circuit was my favorite.


beanwiggin420

I played that alot last night. The boo circuit was my favorite.


Devrard65

It looks like the soul silver is real with the corner being purple, but Even if the pokemon games were fake, $20 really isnt that crazy for a bundle like this. Good find!


Diligent-Baby-3805

What the actual....? WHO GAVE YOU ALL THAT FOR $20?!?! I never even find video games at yardsales...let alone a deal like this! Holy shit....you did good. REAL good. Gratz!


Proud_Rent8315

As long as you enjoy all of that, who cares how much it cost?


beanwiggin420

I will play like 50% of this. So I would say it is a win.

That didn’t really clear anything up but congrats


TheStaleFace

Good job with the games. Bad job getting dressed


beanwiggin420

Right? I typically only wear pajamas on the weekends.


Euphorium

Could have at least thrown on your dress sweatpants when exchanging money lol


beanwiggin420

The silk ones show my package a little too much to be walking around town in.


RegiSilver

That Pokémon Soul Silver alone is worth the 20$, everything else was just an extra. The only downside is that they're loose but other than that, damn son, you made a phenomenal deal.


a_bearded_hippie

Try at least 80 these days.


RegiSilver

Yeah, price hike has gone insane! For 20$ I'd say that was a great deal. But I've read people say stuff like: *"If you paid 20$ and the game goes for 80$, then you should pay back the remaining 60$, it's only fair, be a good, ethical person (or whatever)"*. Man, I just wish I'd found these deals in my area 😅


a_bearded_hippie

Me too. I consider myself pretty lucky to have found a CIB white version for 85 at half price books. But I think I'm done buying old pokemon games. I have Red, Blue, Crystal, Diamond, ruby, alpha sapphire, and Y. That's a good enough collection for me unless I find a great deal on HG or SS. 20 bucks is an insane bargain for all those games.


MattBallzzzy

I bought soulsilver from a kid in my art class in 2013 for $20. And I got an Emerald at a garage sale for $0.10. So I think I got it pretty good. Both Carts only.


GameBoyColorful

I would’ve offered 5. You got ripped off.


ranesfall

I'll never understand why you people ask these dumbass questions... Hey I got these 10 games for half a penny I found, and a lollipop covered in hair and lent, did I get a good deal? Yes, chances are you got a steal now please start phrasing these differently. Hey check out these games I got for X price, should I have paid them more or less? Try that


il_picciottino

You should be arrested for robbery! Well done 😎


Cthulhu-_-Milk

5/5 👍


luugi_06

Pokemon Black alone would net you a profit


Redsucksatstuff

Pokemon black for 20 is a steal man


COmtbRider

Nice score. I’ll give you $25 for it.


sibbaldk

Nice!


IPanicKnife

Made off like a bandit

green_jp

pretty damn good. I wish my country had yard sales.


stevealanbrown

I don’t know this market, but I would imagine that you did amazing


Switcheroo64

That's a steal for all those games, and a pretty good deal, too!


CarlitosGregorinos

Pokémon games alone, you did well.


uncultured_swine2099

Youve struck gold.

Nightmare in dreamland and acnh are some of my favorites nice grab!


mthomas1217

Nice pants. I am wearing the same ones right now lol


beanwiggin420

A fellow man of culture.


mthomas1217

Exactly!!


BrattyTwilis

Good deal. Several of those are worth it


DirtySlateThrowaway

Cautious_Counter1034

Hmm I'm not convinced considering pokemon prices but hey sometimes people do just get rid of things for a couple of bucks haha


Dudeometer

Pretty good, except nintendogs, that's like negative $30.


spaceboots

You did amazing, like even without the pokemon games you still got a deal and a half


OVERRIDE_Agent13

I’ll buy it for 25 and shipping! Profit!


Lt_Degenerate

Awful


MattyMizzou

I played so much super circuit on road trips as a kid.


Judetrinity

FUCKING SCORE!


Ok-Grapefruit5379

Omg that a steal Kirby super star ultra is kinda worth a bit


AnniChu333

INSANE luck!! Tops my Wii U for $25 yesterday haha, although I obviously can’t complain


Finji_

GBA games alone are legit, so I'd say that it's a win


StevoPhotography

Well considering Pokémon black and SoulSilver together are worth about 300-400. I’d say you got a pretty good deal


Catoe67

Anytime you find a Pokémon game for 20 dollars it's win.


MatthewSteakHam

Dang nice yob


The-lemon-kid-68

Soulsilver is how much! My daughter has soulsilver but it stopped working. No wonder she was so pissed about it.


SmokeyShades

And people talk like GameStop has bad trade value. Shhheeet they coulda at least got 80 cash.


BigchiefLeaf

Congrats on wanting to play Atari old games lol

You scored big, bud. Those colors of Pokemon could net you $200 easily as a pair.

Very good. DS cartridges go for a fair penny. Especially the Pokémon


Sweaty_Distance_7267

Turn yourself in. You’ve committed a robbery.

All legit DS games will have a small rectangular notch on the top side of the cartridge.

beanwiggin420

https://www.reddit.com/r/gameverifying/s/dnZWUrQco1 It looks like this one.


After-Decision-6402

20$ won’t replace the time it costed to clean those damn neglected nintendogs lol


ItJermy

That's such a steal that I don't even believe you. I can't imagine someone having this selection of games and not knowing what they're worth.


ButterscotchNew4493

Great deal you’re holding over $100


Party_Attitude1845

Nintendogs by itself is worth $20 :-)


DismalApartment1147

I'm not a big pokemon fan but i know soulsilver alone makes it worth the 20 bucks. Good job!

Nintendo dogs😍 now i need to get that game it’s been too long

Basically theft having those Pokemon Games in there.

Did the band hero come with that terrible side grip accessory? I worked on it briefly and that thing almost destroyed my hand.

Please have fun with soulsilver and Mario kart super circuit! Those are my favorites here!! Well i prefer heartgold!

Convincingly well. Super jealous but good job

You could easily flip this for 200+ on eBay, 250-300 if you're a little more patient

I am very intrigued by the mario game. Is it an rpg?
