Correction at 3:07 - The eShop release of Axiom Verge was the first outside of PS/PC, NOT the Limited Run release. The physical release came a few years later. (Thanks @EPS5000 !)

300 bucks as the most expensive is dirt cheap compared to basically every other console, collectors should get on this before they shoot up in price in 10 years

I used to run a game store back in the Wii U era. We had copies of Wario, Unwritten Tales, and Turbo sitting on the shelf for years. At one point Turbo was marked down to $10.

I picked up Game & Wario at Target on clearance for $20 and let me tell you it is a lot of fun. Super underrated game.

The cool thing is that some of these are a actually really good games to own and play.
Often expensive games are just that: expensive and not really enjoyable.
Unless you have a sweet spot for that specific genre.

But TBOUT2 and Axiomverge and to a degree even Devils Third are also really good games on top of being collectibles!

Also WiiU rocks, one hidden gem of a system!

So I can actually add a little bit to the reason why double start is so expensive. I was working at GameStop at the time when that game was released. Not only did they, we only received copies to fulfill pre-orders and we barely carried any spare copies after that but on the initial release we actually had a shortage. And this happened to be to be true for every game of my area, which at the time there was five. Each location was actually shorted by a few copies. The best example I can give you is at my store only had five pre-orders but only three copies ever came in. The second nearest location only had four pre-orders and only two copies ever came in. And my whole time there which I only lasted another year and a half after this game came out we only saw one trade in of that game

I’m a big fan of the Wii U, I love to see the console getting love, even if it’s postmortem

[MusharnaMush]

I own a Wii U so thank you for the list.

Such a shocker 2 Nintendo published titles on this list wow.

[N-MCMXCIX]

With Axiom Verge, it is one of the few titles that I was able to snag before the eShop went down. Got it on sale for about 10 or 20 dollars.

[TheFleaX]

When Wii U was on it's last leg I hunted down every rare game I could find and got all five of the games on your list.

[MatthewHrebec]

Great video man honestly i was shocked to not see Mario and Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games on this list seeing as how nowadays its going for $130 for a new copy i saw on amazon and i bought a very good used copy for $55

[AJOngenae]

About 3 years ago I bought 12 WiiU games for $40... the lot had both Wario Ware & Unwritten tales 2.

[steviecomebacks]

Fortunate enough to have the entire physical NA library. Best score was picking up a sealed Book of Unwritten Tales 2 sometime in 2016 in the discount rack of GameStop for $5.

[Quartzer.]

Turbo Super Stunt Squad is one of my favorite things to joke about

[NostalgiaFlashback]

Woah! I never thought I would see my footage in an nintendrew video. 😮

I actually have Turbo and Devil's Third physical. But I'd say in Europe, they are not that expensive.
Turbo is actually a pretty nice game, which I enjoyed for several hours. I also liked the movie a lot.
The game is like a Tony Hawks game with a snail. But 6 levels are pretty huge and interesting to explore and the challenges get tougher. This is definitely a decent game and kinda worth owning.

[AceUndergeekBunny]

As a guy who do a PAL collection of Wii U games, it's funny to saw the first 2 games aren't expensive here in Europe.

I buy Devil Third twice for 10/15 € and Unwritten Tales 2 for 5€ on a Micromania, the French Best Buy.

But we've got our expensive gales, Project Zero is one of them 😅.

[EdsHead]

I'm so glad I collected for the Wii U mostly in 2016 for my full collection because there's no way I'd spend that much today. I also find it interesting I have 3 of the 5 still sealed because I was going for a full collection and not necessarily to play them. I mean, I'm really never going to play Turbo...

[Nobutehuhh]

Remember seeing copies of Devil's Third on sale in my local store, wish I bought it lol.

[Danziii]

I never had a Wii U until about 2020, honestly, very underrated, it's a console I really enjoy collecting for
