So the latest deal from Nintendo is the Mario Kart and Platinum GameCube bundle. The kicker? It comes with two controllers. While this is totally awesome for those who do not already own a Game Cube. It totally sucks for me. Because I've been trying to get a hold of another platinum controller. But you can only buy a wavebird in platinum. *ROLLS EYES*

Go for the wavebird! I have two, and they are very sweet. Plus, if you ever play with your friends, they are fun to show off.

Hmm, maybe this is a good time to jump on the GameCube wagon.

Do you wish there were more female lead roles and heroes in video games?

How much is this package going for?

Because I plan on buying a GC for the new Zelda game whe it comes out, and Mario Kart is a fun game.

I don't expect the Zelda disc is still included?

Not that I don't have it yet...

In response to that random and off topic question I say:

Yeah, it would be cool. The girl is always the wimpy annoying character in the video game. Although, that is what I know and have grown up with so its fine with me if things don't change. Basically, I'm not throwing a fit because there aren't many good girl characters. But if there were more, i'd say "cool"

Actually I think there are too many lara croft clones....

If you want to do a female character, do it right, like in SH3 for example.... not sure if that's a good example but eh :unsure:

Not always...HL2 is a recent good example.

Ok, let me rephrase... in the games i've played the girl is always wimpy and annoying.

What is HL2?

Half Life 2.

So... how about that Mario Kart bundle! I think I sold my friend on Gamecube when I told him about it.

There are girls in Half Life? I've never played it, but I have attempted Counterstrike (a long time ago)

Way to go!!! I believe that everyone who has the means should own a gamecube. It shall one day bring peace on Earth.

Have we gone through a discussion about women in video games without mentioning the luscious Samus Aran? Tsk tsk.
