Baten Kaitos Origins

In addition, players will learn about the origins of the world itself and why the Lost Ocean is returning.

The hero, a blue-haired young man named Sagi, was sent to assassinate the Emperor but found the job had been done for him.

Blamed for the death, he's now on the run with two friends - a robot named Guillo and a young woman named Milly.

In the initial stages, the player's party will progress in a linear fashion, moving from one area to the next along a set path.

After playing the game for a few hours, players will acquire a ship that lets them visit areas in the order of their choosing, allowing them to either pursue optional side quests or blast through the main mission as they see fit.

Unlike traditional RPGs, where characters gain levels in categories such as strength and agility, the majority of leveling-up occurs by procuring better Magnus cards.

There are more than 600 different Magnus cards in Baten Kaitos Origins, some of which have truly fantastical properties.

Players can acquire cards in many different ways, including trading, buying, winning as spoils of war or by creating them themselves.

Baten Kaitos Origins for Nintendo GameCube is currently worth €52.48 loose, €55.35 complete in box, and €83.28 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

Baten Kaitos Origins has only a handful of tracked market sales, suggesting relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo GameCube titles.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For Baten Kaitos Origins, loose is €52.48 and CIB is €55.35 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.
