Recently, if you didn't know, Nintendo Gamecube games and peripherals are increasing in value dramatically. If you've got a copy of 'Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance' kicking about - you're sitting on roughly £110 worth of game according to pawnbrokers - collectors will pay a LOT more.

However, Fire Emblem is a very rare game and it's unlikely you've got Frogger Beyond or Tales of Symphonia lurking in your retro box either. So, rather than sitting on a fortune right now - you're hoping and praying that your other early vintage gear is set for a resurgence in popularly and price.

Trust me when I tell you that, far short of a gaming apocalypse, very few modern games will ever be worth a fortune - it won't stop you checking but you probably shouldn't to avoid disappointment...
