Nintendo Gaming / Luigi's Mansion worth it?

« on: January 09, 2004, 07:17:34 PM »

I'm thinking about picking up Luigi's Mansion.  I wouldn't pay anymore than $20 for it.  I hear the game is so short and doesn't really provide much of a challenge, yet it's still fun while it lasts.

I would rent it but I usually dont have much time to play games all at once with work and all.  So should I pick this game up?

I'm having a hard time with the flower cup (I think anyway, the one with Waluigi Stadium as the last course) on 150cc.  I've gotten silver both times I've tried.

And I dont know why you have to completely exit the game even if you want to restart on the first track of a cup.

I never noticed it until now, and i bought my Cube at launch

lol, wow, coincidence?  Probably not.  Thats really weird though.  And releiving in a way.

No, its not my cube, its just the only pic I could find on the net of the top of a gamecube.  And that must be some older pre release version or something becuase the top lid has that little window in it.  Plus mine is black.

I just wanted to show you where the cracks are on the console.

As far as them even being cracks, I'm not sure.  They sure look like cracks from close up, but rubbing them with my finger I cant really feel much, its all pretty smooth.

I dont think I'm going to return the gamecube, since its working fine to my knowledge (so far).  Thanks for the input though, and if anyone else has seen anything like this before, please let me know.

I bought my gamecube new about 3 weeks ago, one thing I noticed (actually when I first opened it) is that there are small cracks that run in the plastic.  There is one that goes from the light on the top down to the edge.  As well as small cracks that run from the buttons (power, open, reset) to the edges on top of the console.

EXAMPLE PIC

You can see in the pic where the cracks are, the crack by the power button is slightly smaller.  But the cracks really aren't that big or noticable (especially since its a black gamecube) but that almost exactley how they look as far as location and shape.

The Gamecube itself works fine, no problems whatsoever.  I was just curious if anyone else has had such a problem?  I assume its either from bad packaging, mishandling, or poor quality plastic.

Thanks.
