GameCube and game prices CONFIRMED!

I expected as much. This is great, only need to spend $500 on consoles this year...

Hahaha. I guess we all see this in different terms and I will tell you how I see it. Nintendo is raping your guys money, or Microsoft is giving you one hell of a deal.

Gamecube - must buy modem or ethernet card seperate &  no harddrive

X-Box - DVD movies (w/ remote), hard drive, and ethernet all included out of the box, for the cost of a PS2.

It\'s all in how you look at it. I know which console I will be getting at launch.

Money dosent really come first to me, I think of what kind of gaming im gonna get, I like Nintendo\'s games and I like Rare\'s games, so for me the GameCube is the better deal.

The same way SEGA raped us out of our money with the Dreamcast?

PS2 games are equally expensive. And when you compare the prices to previous NIntendo game prices, this is great news. Not to mention the console price is beyond excellent. THis could be a real problem for MS.

I am going to pre-order mine A.S.A.P!

Sorry i got it wrong,i thought it was still going to be 49 pounds for one game here in the uk,but yeah games are too expensive,i think ps2 game are too expensive as well.
But the console price that is cool,i think they could have a big market share this geneartion,well untill the other consoles lower there prices,i do think the xbox should have been the same price,for microsofts first console,but i guess you do get a hard drive with the Xbox,so that is one good point.

Just like Sega raped us w/ the Sega CD and 32X? Or maybe what Sony plans to do with the HDD/BB add-on? How about what Microsoft is doing by entering the console race?
