GameCube will be $150.00
The Japanese promos for GC are filtering out and on them GC is listed as launching July 21, 2001 in Japan at 17,800 yen which converted is about $153.00 US dollars. This proves GC will not be $200.00 as some have said and it also proves there will be no delay. Go here to take a look at one of the posters:

The Pads look Darn Funny Though, still at that price itll wipe the floor with the competition, particularly if the games are reasonably priced.
Personally I think that Nintendo should make a software emulator for the Gamecube...so it can emulate the N64, they could then build this emulator along with old N64 games onto their Optical Discs and therefore release with a budget range of N64 games at launch!

I think Nintendo are thinking about putting some classic N64 games onto a GC disk and selling them. Although I aint sure which games.
I reckon they should have a disk with all the RARE games on, they could fit and I would probably (definetely) buy it!

It may work out to be £100 when you convert the currency but I reckon that it will still be priced at around £150
Mainly because (apart from yen, lira, etc) businesses try to use the same figure for every country (even if it means they are making a huge profit) so I reckon our price will be the US price with the £ sign instead of $

Point is how much if euro's are in?
Who cares about Euros...
And that poster is so believably fake, it's unbelievable.
Where did you copy that news from? Don't go there any more, trust me.
But anyway, the Gamecube will be that price... quite likely anyway.

That would be pure class. Major shortages though!!!

It sounds almost too good to exist... so it won't, unfortunatly.
Stupid idea, they can't fit that kind of thing on any disc.
