In my haste to play a different game I didn't bother to check the disc try in the GC, and I thought I'd taken the game I was playing earlier out.

Imagine my suprise when I put Starfox Adventures in and turn it on, only to have the Die Hard screen load up.

Turns out you can safely put two or more GC disks in the tray at the same time, and have it still work perfectly.



Now, for the non spam part of this post. I propose Nintendo have a disc changer in their next console.

A disc-changer is a great idea, and I expect to see it on the next PlayStation console, and maybe the next Microsoft one.

But I don't think we'll see it on the GameCube's sucessor.
Nintendo seem to like keeping their designs rather compact and small now. But the addittion of a disc-changer would take-up a lot of space, and would force them to have to create something larger than they want it.

The world record is 176 Gamecube games at once (obviously multiple copies of some titles) acheived by a 19 year old from Nebraska, who successfully booted a copy of Rogue Leader.

See for yourselves at www.madeup.info

I did that one with the PS1 - Putting Actua Golf in to find out that i was playing Micro Machines - T'was great.

What Ninty really need is a remote control - What use is a wireless pad if you've got to get up to turn the console on (apart from many obvious reasons, of course)

If you do have a disc changer then gasmes like Resi Evil will not need an annoying disc change inbetween!

WOW, no scratches at all. It's a good idea to have a disc changer but it would just add to the price.

A disc changer would be good. I hate changing between discs. It's so damn annoying.
