Hi guys and gals.

Decided it's time to let my GameCube go. Just don't play it and i feel i should let someone who will offer it the love and time it deserves take over ownership.

So,

Black UK Pal GameCube
Official Black controller
3rd party memory card 56
3rd party (good quality) controller
official Nintendo RGB Scart lead
Super Monkey Ball
Wave Race blue Storm
Luigi's Mansion

All boxed, all in mint condition and only had about 25 hours total play time, probably less as I’ve only complete Waverace and half of SMB! Bought it on launch day so still has 3 months of the Ninty warranty left with the till receipt.

ANY OFFERS?

I wouldn't sell my GC, but I was prepared to accept you would. After reading this - I just can't. Have you been living in a hole such 3rd May? Get rid of those three games you have, and get some of these:

Animal Crossing (US Import)
Timesplitters 2
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4
Resident Evil
Super Mario Sunshine
Mario Party 4
Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast
Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Starfox Adventures
Star Wars Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader

All of the above I own, and all I think are essentials. On top of those, you've got others that aren't so amazing, but still good additions; Pikmin, NBA Courtside 2002, (three you own), etc. You're seriously saying you're going to sell a perfectly good console - after owning three games that don't even make it into the top ten?

In my opinion - I reckon you should give it another go. I've mentioned 11 games there, that you don't even own and are out now. On top of that, there's the future to look forward to, with classics such as Resident Evil Zero, Metroid Prime and The Legend Of Zelda on the way. If you still want to sell it after all this - fine, but I very much doubt you will.

How much for Wave Race?
I'll trade you, er, Age Of Empires 2 for it, maybe.

Since this is the Nintendo forum, most people here will already have a Gamecube anyway.

Yeah fair point, hadn't noticed that :-)

Let us tackle your debt. We deal directly with creditors meaning no more stress and you regain control of your finances. Our advisers provide a confidential, fast, proven service.

Thanks for the offer but I have already got GTA III (and Vice City) of PS2 and to be honest, I think that type of game is more suited to a console. I want my PC for FPS (Unreal 2, UT2003), RTSs (C&C Generals) and RPGs (Neverwinter Nights, Icewind Dale 2).

But as I say thanks for the offer mate.

Anyone interested in a GC then. And as Whitestripes so eloquently puts it, with Metroid Prime release just around the corner, you NEED a GameCube now! ;-)

hey steady there tiger.

I wasn't saying the CG is a bad console, just that i don't play it enough to really warrant keeping it. Already played MPrime and yeah it's amazing, but i've got like 100+ PS2 games that i never play and just getting back into PC games, so that will mean even more games to play.

It's all about priority i guess.
