Any tips where to buy the cheap GC-games?
PAL, NTSC, Copied, anything goes.

You are more than free to talk about anything else related to GC, but piracy is a no no.

Dream on.
"My problem is that I can't find any [games]."
When the media is difficult to pirate (not practical to pirate at all) the system won't be popular there (nothing "cheap" to play; system not worth having; no one interested), I assume. I can see why you can't find anything significant at all in the land of copies.

But the stuff they sell on the street markets are just fakes, although the real factory are nearby. Try to find a factory maybe you can buy stuff directly. Unless you get shot on the way or tempted to spend your 5dollars on a hooker instead of a pair of sneakers

My brother comes through there every so often due to work and I wouldn't mind getting some games there.
(Legitamet retail games, which should be cheaper than locally if legitamet retail DVD movies are anything to go by)
I just don't wanto send him on a wild goose hunt. Thanks

I think thats the reason why people go to 3rd World countries at all, except Muslim countries, if you hook up with a local chick there, expect to be killed and the wrath of Allah

Saudi Arabia is not all Muslim countries. Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Indonesia are all Muslim countries, in fact they are the three biggest Muslim countries and all are in the 10 ten most populous countries. Pakistan and Bangladesh are pretty much exactly like India except people eat cows instead of worship them, and Indonesia is a like 10 different countries but they are no different from non Muslim countries. I'm not sure you understand much about Islam (you are thinking of the Iranian dominant Shi'ite branch of extremists, which make up like 5% of Muslims, as opposed to the Sunni branch which is over 90% of Muslims and yes, it's stupid just like every other religion but it's no more ludicrous and laughable than Judaism or....Christianity lol...what a joke...but I digress).
Oh, and I can see that you were clearly making a joke, but I just felt like babbling anyway.

Anyways, of course it was merely a dumb comment, but its amazing how some of these countries react concerning little things. Turkey for instance, very popular amongst North European tourist, very emancipated, beautiful and great for all kinds of partying. BUT, if you get caught trying to take a souvenir back thats a natural item of any kind(stone from a beach even) then you can get arrested and jailed for a long time. Its happened alot to the most innocent of people, sometimes parents of children that took a stone with them.

I have a friend in my AP Calculus class who's from Turkey, I'll have to ask him about that...
Hey well Europeans brought dogs over to Australia and they evolved into dingos and wiped out Australia's only two carnivorous mammals, the Tasmanian devil, now only found in the tiny island of Tasmania, and the Tasmanian tiger, which is now extinct. The Tasmanian tiger was not actually a tiger (a tiger could own an entire pack of dogs anyway) but a unique four legged, semi-striped, dog-like mammal which sadly, couldn't compete with the dingo's pack hunting and lost it's food source and died.
And if you bring a Madagascar cockroach to the US...you can expect a full biohazard containment team and the FBI, CIA, and customs agents to all drop by your house lol

I have know done some more research regarding the protectionsytem of the Cube. I know that the discs are burned with a special technique and that the laser reads the discs backwards, BUT, you can buy a modchip for your Cube with a special bios in it which makes the laser able to read the discs both ways. "Backward" and "forward", but since no copied games seems to excist in thailand i just have to go to BKK and go to the big BIG store where all shops are related to electronics and such. There I will find me some cheap MINI-DVD's (since they cost like 10 dollars/disc in sweden) and buy a lot of them and send them home to Sweden by air-mail and then download and burn the games myself!
Haven't had the time to reply before since I've been busy buying clothes, dvd-films and drinking my head of (a bucket with Vodka redbull cost like 7 bucks and lasts for hours). In other words, I've been enjoying my vacation =)

You can do whatever you want, but good luck getting a gamecube to play burnt games. And you'll have to worry about those Cyborg Ninja assassins Nintendo will be sending after you

What?!?!?!
A Dingo is not an evolved dog (well not a dog evolved from the domestic dog)!!! A dingo is native to Australia and have been bred with domestic dogs by farmers...
The Tasmanian Tiger is extinct (although there are always supposed "sightings" every now and then), although the major reason they are extinct is because of Humans hunting them. I don't beleive that Dingoes out-hunted the tigers in their natural habitat because they are mainly mainland creatures...

And since movies has a great value to me (especially films like snatch, lock stock and two smoking barrels, pulp fiction, boondock saints etc.) I get them as decoration for my apartment as well as for entertainment.
And since the dvd movies are cheap here I buy them, and the games are not cheap so I don't buy them. (I would have if they were cheaper than they are but in sweden you have to pay like 35 dollars/game and I am a student so I can't afford that. Actually I did buy SSBM simply because it's the greatest game ever!
But wish me good luck with my GC-hacking, me and my friend will do our best. And I have a cyber ninja alarm so that's okay.

I doubt you can hack the GC without great expenses. The only way is the Phantasy Star Online, and that's limited.
remember, if your caught, your good as dead
