Picking $100-Worth Of Cheap GameCube Games (That Don't Suck)
Nintendo GameCube games have spiked in price of late. I'm an uneducated schmuck who was not an early adopter of the system, so I called my friend Ian who is somewhat more familiar with its offerings. We each used an imaginary budget of $100 to build our ideal set of GameCube games (loose-disc prices per PriceCharting.com), then jumped on this video chat to compare notes. Naturally the exercise was less about crafting a perfect list, and honestly just an excuse to discuss cheap physical GameCube games (that we think don't suck).

This week I've tried to acquaint myself with a new (to me) video editor called DaVinci Resolve by BlackMagic Design. It's a really full, deep video editor (yep, even the free version), so I did a trial-by-fire and cooked up a couple small videos to try to learn the basic functions.Rocket Air Blaster (canned/compressed air substitute): https://rb.gy/qpjyf8DaVinci Resolve: https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve/

NES Quick-Fix Fail
Today I attempted to fix a non-functioning NES I bought about a year ago, and sadly failed. But it wasn't a total loss; I learned a few things, probably have some salvageable parts to save, and got to try out the Da Vinci Resolve free video editor I downloaded recently.

The Okayest N64 Game (and my Top 5 Good Cheap 3D Platformers for the N64)
The audio-only version of my latest video, "The Okayest N64 Game," followed by a little audio-only bonus talk about the other games I considered, inspired by this week's article, "Top 5 Good Cheap 3D Platformers for the N64." And by cheap I mean in the relative vicinity of 10 bucks... and by good I loosely mean not-crap.

Top 5 Good Cheap Sega Saturn Games
Sega Saturn consoles really aren't TOO expensive, but its games' reputation for being pricey is deserved.

The Best Cheap Exclusive (almost) Sega Master System Game
I'm not an expert when it comes to the Sega Master System, but I do know a a few things about one game that checks off a lot of this nostalgic console's tropes. Things like an embarrassingly bad title and box art that criminally undersell this good, cheap game.

The Best Cheap Physical Dragon Quest Game
Dragon Quest is a long-standing JRPG franchise with tons of entries. There aren't many great cheapos in the main series, but I think I've picked out the best one (or three or four) for budget-conscious franchise noobs, as well as a handful of spinoffs you might want to investigate as well. It's tough to swallow the fact that my personal favorite probably isn't the best choice, but I'll begrudgingly stand by my main recommendation.CheapPhysicalGames.comMusic tracks are from the Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King (PlayStation 2, 2005) Official Sound Track.Track 1: OvertureTrack 2: Strange World/Marching Through The FieldsTrack 3...

4 Cheap Compilation Games On Sega Genesis (that don't suck)
As a thrifty fella, I love compilation games. The Sega Genesis provided my earliest memories of compilation games, and this (almost) handful of them still hold up as solid, cheap games most Genesis-owners should add to their collections. If you don't like listening to my dumb voice (join the club), you can get basically the same-but-silent version of the content at CheapPhysicalGames.com!

8 Cheap Warner Bros GameBoy Games (that don't suck)
It's easy to skip over the Nintendo GameBoy these days; it's even easier to overlook Warner Bros games. A lot of what we consider the best retro license titles are Disney games made by Capcom, but you shouldn't look past Sunsoft's early gems, or what Konami did with the Tiny Toons license. This week I added 8 cheap Warner Bros GameBoy games to my super-official CPG Master List (at CheapPhysicalGames.com); here's a quick recap, highlighted by one of my personal favorites.MUSIC TRACKSTiny Toon Adventures: Babs’ Big Break (OST) Track 1: Stage 1Track 2: Stage 3Track 3: Stage 2

15 STUPID Cheap PlayStation 2 Open-World 3rd Person Action Games... That Don't Suck
Welcome to Cheap Physical Games (that don't suck)! This week I was in the mood to dig into one of the most popular genres on the best-selling home console of all time, resulting in the atrocity of an episode title you see here!

3 SUPER Cheap NES Games That Don't Suck
I'm cheap. And I have a short attention span. And I'm bad at most games. So I do a lot of my best gaming work in the bargain bin! I'm also currently in an NES mood, so here are three NES games that are literally among the cheapest in the entire library, and that also happen to not suck (in my opinion).
