I thought it only supported 4 gamecubes with 4 players on each :S.
Nope, Mario Kart supports 8 Gamecubes with 2 players each... :wink:

3 Gamecubes, 8 Gamecube broadband adapters, an 8-port LAN hub, 8 copies of Mario Kart, 7 TVs, 11 controllers, and 7 Gamecube component cables... :lol:

That Zelda four swords setup is getting closer though. Just 3 Gameboy players, 3 link cables and a few screens away... :mrgreen:

Both setups would look great in a one of a kind videogame shop. But if I ever do such a thing, it won't be in Belgium, and not in the first 3 years...

What is that thing that attaches to a trumpet? And why is it removed and added all the time?

That's a type of damper called a mute. It changes the sound of the trumpet. Very popular in jazz and blues.

It's been immensely hot in NY for the past few days too (although it wasn't today), but I've been loving it.
