If you're an X-Box fan then it's unlikely that you'll ever really get into Doshin easily. StarFox isn't bad though, just too easy and rather simple at times. Again, you've gotta like Nintendo to really like that.

But definitley get Eternal Darkness, Mario SunShine, and all those others - even Monkey Ball.

Hmmm...I'm not sure about Doshin or SFA but the rest are excellent games - don't forget Eternal Darkness as well.

If you're interested in Animal Crossing, then DO NOT sell your GBA!!
When it comes-out over-here (IF it comes...) there will be some great link-up features available between the 2 consoles, including the abillity to unlock and play some classic Nintendo games, as you progress.

And the GBA will also provide you with extras for quite a few forth-coming Nintendo games - including Zelda, which will be an absolute MUST!!

Here's a list of games currently available and exclusive to the 'Cube I reckon you should take a look at:

Super Mario SunShine
Super Smash Bros. Melée
StaFox Adventures
Super Monkey Ball
Pikmin
Doshin the Giant

There will be a lot of others coming-along next year too, including; Zelda, Metroid Prime, Animal Crossing, and some others.
But if you're after a GameCube, then I reckon you should definitley take a good-look at the top few names on that list there.

I recommend that you buy mine for 200, 000 pounds. I'll give you a copy of Pikmin for free.

Right.

Doshin I heard is a game Similar to black and white, but been recondtioned with Nintendo magic?

I'll be mostly buying my games off play.com (Sorry SR) as they have excellent prices.

I've seen the "Gamecube Mario pack" on gameplay.com for £169.99.

Consisting of Gamecube, Joytech controller and SMS. Is the joytech controller worth it? Or shall I get it and sell it on?

Yup that's a great price.

A tip IMO you'd be better off getting other games before Doshin, it's a good game but it's not superb and will certainly not appeal to everyone. It's a bit limited really...

You'd be better off going for something like Smash Bros, Resident Evil or Eternal Darkness.
