Well i did say maybe,there is as always no gurantee for anything. Think about it though,i bet you all the people that through away their Sega Dreamcasts,their N64 or even the humble Gamecubes are kicking themselves now when they see what they can go for. I have spoken to some sellers of such items & they really didnt expect it to sell for what they have. I have also had some who said they kick themselves when they remember they threw the original box away thinking its just cardboard & not worth worrying about only to realise they could in some cases have doubled their money simply because they have the original box. One major bonus is the bloody thing wont have to be online every 24 bloody hours so you can play a damn game when you feel like it

That's only if they're brand new, old used systems very rarely increase unless they're something super special and/or rare.

Used Gamecubes for example go for $20-$30 at best.

I disagree. Consoles are something i keep an eye on as i collect some variations of them. One example is standard Gamecube,no box with 4 boring games at $60 with a few days to go. So,they still can go for a reasonable dollar. The really rare or even the special ones i have seen sell for around $150-$300 in their boxes & dependent on what they are such as Zelda or Resident Evil. N64 console are around the $100 mark(occasionally less)with a few games,more if they have original box etc.
