Can anyone list off any decent Gamecube games that have a used price that is like $15 or less? The lower the better

Also any cheap memory card brands to avoid?

For games, just look at the Players Choice section. Theyre all like $20 each.

As for memory cards, I hear that Nyco and Nintendos' new one sucks so avoid those.

Look for eternal darkness, awesome game.

Avoid third-party memory cards in general unless you have no other choice. Nintendo is notorious for keeping their interfaces secret, and while a GC memory card is little more than a piece of SPI flash memory, they have relationships with Sharp and Macronix that let them get custom stuff, so it's hard to say for sure what's inside.

homerun king is a good baseball game at 7.99 or less

Try Resident Evil. It's a great remake of the first, and it's only $15 at Best Buy right now.

Otherwise, yeah... check out the Player's Choice series. There are a couple stinkers in there, but most (Zelda, Mario, Animal Crossing, Mario Golf, etc, etc) are excellent.

I don't know about that cheap but if you want good games get Mario Sunshin, Pikmin 1, 2, Smash Brothers, and Wind Waker.

Best served with buffalo chicken pizza.
