The X-Box is too much like a PC IMO, that's why I'm getting a Gamecube. Anyone got any good suggestions for which game I should get on launch (I'll be getting SSBM on May 22nd)?

Somewhere around £160. At least thats how much amazon.uk are selling theirs for and it's coming out in May but I can't remember the excate date.

The gamecube itself is going to vary alot in price from place to place. Online places seem to be selling it for £160-£165, whilst I've heard that bigger high street retailers will be selling for around £180 (best avoid them). The games will be either £37.99 or £39.99 (source special reserve), pads official £25, memory cards £15. Looks like if you buy the bits separate, you will need in the region of £250 to have a good gamecube gaming setup.

Yep that sounds about right, I would think the Online site would be best no chance of not getting one then...
and you get it delivered...;)

a thing i like about nintendo consoles, is all you need is 4 controllers and you can have a big 4-way game, without the need to spend money for a multi-tap, a good thing, well done to Nintendo, thats an advantage it has over Playstation. :upto:

03-17-2002, 05:19 PM
Yeah that's the same for the X-Box as well and not only that there games are made for 4 player even Dead Or Alive 3 ... :p

Just having 2 control ports isn't very good, I'm surprised sony didn't do something about that with the PS2. 4 ports is twice the fun of 2.

theres 4 joypads on an x-box yes but have you thought though sony make 25 for a multitap but x-box make 30 for a dvd controller which you need to play dvds unlike the ps2. so they make that extra money that way but whats more important a multitap or dvd player...
a dvd player of course so microsoft make even more money off oyu as if the console wasent expensive enough
