Egg Mania: Eggstreme Madness
Nintendo GameCube · 2002
About this game
Egg Mania is a puzzle game in which the player controls an egg-shaped character against either a computer opponent or another player via the link cable.
The object of the main modes is to build a tower tall enough to reach a balloon at the top of the playfield before the opponent does.

If the player tries to take a short cut and not build complete floors, the structure will start crumbling and the water will come up faster.
There are plenty of obstacles, both from the game and from competing opponents.
Falling meteors can knock the player down into the water, while bombs thrown by the opponent will destroy parts of the player's structure.
The main modes include Over Easy and Hard Boiled, the difference being that in the latter a different difficulty can be chosen.
There are four extra modes: Survival, Solo, Time Trial, and Bomb.
In Survival the player must survive as many rounds as possible, while the goal in Solo is to increase the overall score by completing rows and performing combos; Time Trial challenges the player to continually beat his or her own best time; finally, in Bomb, whoever destroys the opponent's tower first wins.
Compared to the GBA version, the console versions have improved graphics and sound, cutscenes at the beginning of each level, a play area that is wider by one block, two additional modes (8-player Tournament and Custom, where the rules can be customized by activating different options), but lacks the Time Trial mode.
Otherwise, they are completely identical, both in gameplay and level design.
About Nintendo GameCube
Nintendo's GameCube (2001) used a compact optical disc format and was the company's first console with online capability, though it never matched the PS2's commercial success. GameCube discs are comparatively durable, making complete-in-box collecting approachable, while a handful of Japan-only and limited-release titles (some tied to promotions) are the platform's genuine chase items.
Gamevaro tracks Egg Mania: Eggstreme Madness for Nintendo GameCube with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Egg Mania: Eggstreme Madness to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GCN release dates back to 2002.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Egg Mania: Eggstreme Madness, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo GameCube titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
