Although I thnik not many of the people here can answer my question but here it is...

Will a UK PAL Cube work here in Greece.I lived in London for 2 years and the VCR I bought back works black and white because it's the "UK" PAL standard. Is it the same with the GCN...

I think it should run just fine.

By the way, when did you get all the way from Russia to Greece, Azazela?

That's where you were always "from" when you were at FunXbox.

Forget Funxbox...

I'm pre-ordering from wwe.amazon.fr they have better deals, and they use the same PAL system as Greece.


I'm Russian but I live in Greece.

Oh, Greece has the same PAL system as France? Then it's not exactly PAL, it's SECAM (I know SECAM is used in France, so Greece uses it as well).
SECAM is in the PAL system, but they're a little different. On my multi-system TV, for example, something I see blue in PAL is shown purple in SECAM. So there may be problems (and it's likely, seeing you've had problems before). I think you should be careful...

Edit: Woohoo! 400 posts! (I have more, but they're under my "64" and "86" user names. All 3 added up may pass 600!)

I have a friend who has a N64 and a PS2 from France and games from Greece work on both.

UK uses "BG" PAL system whatever the f@ck that means.

I don't know anything about the different regional systems, but it will work.
