Ah, those xbox owners. I know a couple already.
And in about 6 weeks, that'll be us, with our gamecubes. Some of us anyway. The excitement, then the loss of the whole day playing the thing : )

I'd not seen the xbox in action before today, and though it was (even) bigger than i expected, it was a very nice machine. To be honest, i'd like to see something a little more... special in terms of games when i'm working through the gamecube offerings, and being able to see those scrtaches after just a day's play must be slightly worrying (though i'm sure it won't stop them playing properly, still, i'd fear for my dvds and cds). Still, despite this, it did look like a nice piece of kit. Roll on may 3rd!

Yeah, SSB:melee is, as far as I am concerned, Nintendo's second launch date. Why? It is one of the most anticipated games of the Gamecubes line-up. I am glad I pre-ordered it. Roll on may 3rd (and 24th)

If you ask me we needed a decent 3D adventure game for cube launch, you know like say a Mario game.

Still it's not going to stop me from buying one. :0)

Launch date is a huge deal yes but I'm anticipating more for some of the titles launched later, Pikmin, Kameo and Turok.

Anyone else?

Roll on May 18ish!

:(

I'm gonna pre-order my Gamecube from SR at some point over the next few weeks, but I'm not gonna play on me Cube till at least the 18th May!

Why?

Cos between May 9th -> 17th I have to hand in 5 huge assignments so I'm not gonna distract myself with me Cube! Instead I'm gonna order it and have it sent home to be waiting for my return for my 4 MONTH holiday!!!

:D
