*slow clap*

Seeing as the Gamecube was my first home console, any information about it I don't know is interesting. I didn't find anything new, but I believe this was a really needed guide.
Systems: Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, N64, Gamecube, Xbox 360

WTB: Boxes for a silver Gamecube System(and a hyperport cover), and a box for an Ice Blue N64 console. Will pay 7.50 for each and shipping.

Gamecube Microphone, DK Bongos, Panasonic Q would be worth adding to the article.


The article says that it supports DVD which I disagree with. It supports the Nintendo GameCube Disc format which is the size of a mini-DVD. Nintendo did this as well as on the Wii to avoid having to pay the DVD consortium any licensing fees. Their partner, Panasonic, did introduce the Q in Japan to give people the ability to have a Gamecube that could play DVDs.

Great article. I was surprised to see that the cube is the least successful Nintendo console, since its my 2nd favorite Nintendo console. Reminded me that I still need a Wavebird :P

Hey, that is a pleasant surprise to find in my RSS reader after a crap day at work!
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Yeah I quite enjoy these articles. Other than the forum, they're the best part of the whole site. 101s are helpful for obscure systems. I knwo for instance I'd like a Commodore 64 101.
