Nintendo Gaming / Gamecube DEAD?!?!?!

« on: July 01, 2003, 02:27:14 PM »

Hi all

I basicly had a XBOX and I traded it with 4 controllers and 2 games for a USA gamecube 6 games and 2 pads and a memory card.

My family are going mental on me saying I am MUG and a dam right fool....

I am regreting it and am upset.

Basicly rumor has it reading around that Nintendo are dropping the gamecube very soon...... and I just went out and bought a 64 pound RGB lead to make my cube colour and my family are even more angry at me.
I notice games like viewtiful joe, rougue spear 3 coming out and resident evil 4 yet I read that Gamecube 2 is coming out and soon games and 3rd party are stopping for gamecube.

Have I done a foolish thing to trade my xbox?

I do love the cube atm its black and white so I had to get a lead for 64 pounds and still waiting for that but I wanted a cube cause of all the mario games, zelda and so forth..... but if its dieing and I just got one I am upset.

Can someone give me details?
Will cube still be surpported for a few years yet and so forth?
Thanks

Nintendo Gaming / Cube ONLINE!!!!!!!!!!

Hi all!

I am buying a cube very soon, I finally love em.

Tbh the long storie goes I did have one I was one of the first to own one in Europe I won a competition with the Mirror news paper which the storie its self is even funnier, but after i got it I sold it within a few months and did not play it once.
yea a waste and I regret so much its undenible.

Anyway I getting another one and all this internet larky sounds awesome but i am confused a bit and the offical nintendo site dont explain well.

With the Cube Broadband do I just buy the adaptor plug it in and start playing online games and trading stuff over games like animal crossing?

Or do I need to pay for a monthly/yearly connection fee?

You see I am used to Xbox Live where we had to buy it and u basicly get 1 year play and after that u gotta pay monthly..


Can someone give me some details please.

p.s will a adaptor bought in Uk work on a US machine? and will us games on a us machine in UK play online still?

Kind regards.
