Dringo's Realistic launch

1: Gamecube - black - one controller (Shop can't guarentee me one on launch day let alone colour.

2: Extra Controller - Purple (highly likely but may be black if i get a Purple Gamecube)

3: 2 X Memory cards (more likely 1)

4: Luigi's Mansion (defiantly)

5: Star Wars Rogue Squadron 2: Rogue Leader (See above)

6: Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3 (see above)

7: Sonic Adventure 2: Battle (highly unlikely but you never know)

How is your launch shaping up?

Yes, of course I mean 3 ;)

The only thing is, I've heard bad things about the control system on it - and the fact that I've played the other two to death on other consoles tends to mean I'm leaning in other directions.. but then Luigi's Mansion is too short (apparently), and I've also heard bad things about Sonic..

I forgot to mention that I was also considering Wave Race, but then that's just really a major rehash of the first one, isn't it..!

Decisions, decisions....

Tony hawk's 2???? You mean three right? Choose which one you think will give you the most enjoyment. Then if you get more money at a later date, go for the rest.

At launch I hope to be getting at least the following -

· One black Gamecube unit
· One official extra black controller
· One official memory card

· ISS 2
· Star Wars: Rogue Leader

I'd also quite like to get another game as well, but I can't decide between Luigi's Mansion, Sonic, or Tony Hawks 2.

Gamecube-black- official pad
Memory card
Sonic adventure 2:battle
SSBM (few weeks after)

I will follow up with pikmin in the summer, and Rogue leader when I have more money.

i am just writing this bit here because the filter wont allowe me to write most of my post in capital letters. it can be "discourteous, as it gives the impression you are shouting".

Is anyone getting the silver GameCube's that cost about £500?

the price is very attractive though. Even if people have already bought a Ps2 or an X-Box they will consider (yes you all will!) getting a Gamecube. Its different to the PS2 and X-Box and wil have some great original games (SMB)

i think that nintendo left there europe release far too late and that most of the mass market will be moped up by the ps2 and xbox leaving only hard core ninties to purchase the gamecube. still it will be a great console.
