Hudson Selection Vol. 1: Lode Runner

Isometric puzzle/action game.

Released exclusively in Japan for the Nintendo Gamecube and the Playstation 2.

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 Hudson Selection Vol. 1: Lode Runner 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 Hudson Selection Vol. 1: Lode Runner 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 2003.

Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Hudson Selection Vol. 1: Lode Runner, 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.
