I don't really see a point of buying a second GC for backup as NCL has hinted that the N5 will be backwards compatible.

[Doerr]

where have they hinted about this backwards compatible stuff.

[Infernal Monkey]

On the Internet.
It's a pretty damn good deal, I just hope Nintendo advertise it or something. Heh.

AD-VER-TI-ZING? What's that? Sounds like some kind of hippie religion, with their wacky ideas and interesting pastimes

And I've seen Cubes selling for AU$170 so its not that stupid, to get two free games with that. Mario got another Cube a while ago, just for the hell of it.

how come the Zeldas:collectors disc cant be just bought of the shelf, didnt Nintendo produce enough copies.
