I was browsing through the X-Box website when I stumbled up on this picture thingy with the info.
It's all from www.xbox.com

I think Nintendo HAVE GOT to price the Gamcube at $199 to avoid any risk of 'defeat' and I use that term bluntly!

£299 for an X-box, thats not bad ditto £199 for the Gamecube. All we can hope is that theres a vicious price battle making both machines dirt cheap!

Are they? I thought prices in $ get transferred straight over to £.

I.e if its $299, then it'll be £299.

Seems to be how its worked before...

Did with the PS2. Tax does its bit, and then there are the usual price differences, all leading up to an eventual equivalence.

It could very well being more that £299, coz MS are American. And they're MS, of course.

No matter the price i am still getting a GC. I think that Microsoft should have stuck to what they did best.
