So which retailers have dropped the cube or are not advertising it in catalogues etc?

Dixon's have dumped it by the looks of things, probably did ages ago but I haven't been keeping track.

Just trying to guage the cube's future.

I used to think that but the Virgin near me has now stopped selling any Gamecube games. My local game has given Gamecube around six times less shelf space than PS2 but the X box is treated almost as badly as the Gamecube there as well.

Cube is still in all the game-ish shops I've recently been in.

I don't like the GAME is Buchanan street, it's really really dim.

I've stopped going to GAME anyway.
Gamestation is much better - a much bigger selection, and it does SNES games.

Hell, Virgin and HMV are better than GAME for Gamecube games now.

Nah, Buchanon Street.

The one in the Galleries is guff anyway. Though they do still sell GC games... just the top 10 in the chart at the current time, though.

Is that in GAME in Buchanan Galleries?
I thought they'd stopped stocking GC games when I went in.

Bah.
I keep perfect care of mine, and it doesn't work.

You drop yours and it's fine.

Strange, because in my local GAME, Xbox has been moved up to the back and Gamecube down from the back to the shelves next to the counter.

Still takes up less space, but it's in a more prominent position now.
