Title: Trying to find a GameCube ARGH!@#
Post by: kirath on October 26, 2001, 05:02:35 AM
Trying to find a place where I can pre-order a GameCube online.  I want to get one for my sister for x-mass.  But no, every site wants to sell it as a bundle.

I just want the console, a game, and memory card!!  What the hell..!!

Maybe I will try one of the local game stores today and see what I can find out!

Very aggrevating.  Why can\'t these sites just sell the system and its commoponents serparatly as well..  Not force people to buy their little packages.

Does anyone know what just the system is supposed to cost..??

The console by itself is supposed to be $199. Your best bet right now is to go to a store like Best Buy or Walmart on launch day.

You are in Boston right? If so try the Best Buy in Dedham. They are getting a ton of Gamecubes on launch day.

Is BestBuy at the Dednam Mall...?? I don\'t think Ive been there.  Yeah it looks like Im going to be hitting the retail stores in order to get one..

I am not BUYING a package deal, I am very pissed that most stores are not selling it if its not a package.
