Default Confession of a Fanboy

Dear Lord,

Forgive me for I have sinned. I sold my Gamecube for 50 euro with 3 games and 2 contollers, to buy me a new wiimote and wiiplay game.

I did keep Zelda wind waker and my 2 wavebirds.... Please forgive me!!!

D'oh - It seems that Gamecube controllers alone are worth more that the Gamecube itself - Currently selling for £14 each at Computer Exchange (2nd hand)

the reason they are still selling is cause people are buying them as a cheaper solution to the classic controller for the wii

so people sell their GC with their contollers but then realise that they still need it...

GC is dead but the controllers are still needed

The Gamecube isn't dead...

Thanks to the Wii, people are about to realise the delights of the Gamecube.

If you have a GC and a Wii, why not sell your GC for as much as you can get as the Wii can play GC games so you end up with a little bit of money to put towards some stuff for you Wii!

I still have my GC (and N64, SNES and NES) and will keep it for imported games as the Wii cannot play japanese or US games (yet..and probably ever!).


Togusa: Batou, you pamper your Tachikoma like it's a pet cat. They're simply machines.
Tachikoma 1: That's a discriminatory remark!
Tachikoma 2: We demand a retraction!
Tachikoma 3: Togusa's a bigot!
