I've been reading through a load of issues of N64 Mag and other stuff and my own knmowledge of GameCube to make up a list of GameCubes bad points.

1. It's purple. T.V's are always black or silver. Not a nice combination.

2. The infrared controller without a wire, the one they call Wavebird is great to use, untilyour dog goes and sits right in front of the console!

3. It's too small. What do I fill the gap in my cabinet with?

4. err.....

5. hmmm...

Erm, the Wavebird is radio controlled, you lot should know that by now. That means only high levels of magnetism can interfere with it.

Come to think of it, a telly would be the ideal thing to interfere with it, but it's probably got something to protect itself against that.

Anyway, there are wireless controllers for the PS2. The Wavebird's nothing special.

JName one thing similar between GT2 and GT3.

1. It's purple. T.V's are always black or silver. Not a nice combination: it will eventually be in a variety of colours

2. The infrared controller without a wire, the one they call Wavebird is great to use, untilyour dog goes and sits right in front of the console: Erm its a nice extra

3. It's too small. What do I fill the gap in my cabinet with: lol
