Special Reserve will be selling Game Cubes at £159.99.

There was speculation in the trade press that they could be as high as £179.99. The trade price has been set in Euro's not £Sterling and therefore prices could fluctuate in the UK.

Well in typical Nintendo fashion i bet £50, might be £35, but Nintendo always have to cost more than anyone else for games

Nintendo have exclusive rights to optical discs and *could* charge through the nose for them, GamePak-style. However, I really doubt they can be that stupid and all sources point to games being normal proce - £40.

Hopefully they have learnt their lesson from the £50 games that never shifted on the 64

Very nice price!

As soon as I get £300 together I'll be ready.

Here's the list,

£7.50 to join SR. (no I'm not a member yet. I was waiting for the GC to arrive, and a GC free gift accessory to join with.)
£160 to buy myself a GC from here.
I'd say another £130 to buy all the accessories I need from here.

That works out around £300.

Only £250 to go..... I will get it though, mind you. Soon.

£159.99?? Well done Tony & co., that's an excellent price. I'm just glad I pre-ordered mine agains ago, coz I've got a feeling you're not going to have too many spares. ;)
