Happy Finally got my Game Cube!

That's right I finally brought my Game Cube. Now most of you are probably thinking 2 things why didn’t I get an x-Box and why the hell would I be on the forums if I got a GC. Well to answer the first question the X-Box cost $100 more than the GC, and I simply did not have the extra money, plus I didn’t have any more patients to wait. To answer the second question, why I’m I on the forums and not playing my GC? Because the GC did not come with any games not even a demo disk! Oh well I’ll be renting one later on

I was ALMOST jelous of you for a minute there.

I'm buying Pikmin and a memory card on Thursday but I don't have a GameCube yet. I'll be getting it toward the end of the Summer holidays.

What games are you going to buy/rent for it?
I'm getting Pikmin, Luigi's Mansion and Super Monkey Ball and I'm waiting for Super Mario Sunshine, Super Metroid, Starfox Adventures, Zelda (GC), Mario Party 4, maybe Wario Land 4. That's all I can think of for now.

Edit: I don't know about America but here:
GameCube: £129.99
Xbox: £199.99

The GC's £70 cheaper than the XBrick but on the launch of the two consoles, the GC was a whole £170 cheaper.

Well firstly I want to buy a memory card then the games I’m going to buy are:

ISS 2, Stars wars rogue leader, Super smash bro's and the game I rented was burnout.

But the game cube has just been released so there will be plenty more games that will be coming up maybe I could give you a better idea in a few months of what others games I’m going to buy. Which is your favorite console out of the 3? Didn’t you say you had an x-box?

Game Cube is good it's so small, and the cd's are even smaller.

Contained in this small room, there is a Master System 2, PSone and an XBrick.

I don't have a favourite yet because I only have the XBrick. I expect that, with games like Pikmin and Super Monkey Ball, my GameCube will be the most-played.
Since I don't plan to purchase a PS2, I cannot say which I prerer of the three although I don't think the PS2's line-up is strong enough to keep me interested. The only PS2 games I would say looked 'great,' from the perspective of someone who's never touched a PS2 never mind played on one, are: Ico, Rez and Fur Fighters.
