Anyone know what the price of GC games is going to be. I plan to get a Gamecube but I might not if the games are expensive. Someone must have a rough idea.

Estimates from Dringos conservative £35 to my expected £60, big gap there.

lol

Bonus is basing it on the early N64 prices.

Nintendo have learnt there lesson.

What's more, optical disks are far cheaper than the bulky old cartriges.

Expect £30 - £40, roughly the same as the PS2.

If they are £60 then I definately wont be getting one but £35-£40 would be not to bad.

I reckon there gonna be about the same price as playstation games about £35-40 theres no way that Nintendo could get away with charging £60 for a game, but then again if its a Nintendo game then i would probably pay that much if i had to.

I based it the fact that the american games will be $55 at release, that's usually a direct convert into pounds.

The American games will not be $55.

Nintendo have stated they're matching the competition.

I.E. They'll cost the same as PS2/Xbox games or possibly less.

The most expensive game on the N64 I think was Turok 1 and that was 70 pound!

A close second would be between Lylat Wars (with Rumble Pack) and Conkers Bad Fur Day...or maybe Pokemon Stadium....but what about..............

Well ok the N64 have had some pricy games but I think that GC games will be roughly 40-50 quid max.

okay but the price of the console is not taking a direct conversion from the american price. its gonna cost $199 in the US and its a rumored £160 for UK. so surly the games will follow suit.
