Now unless they start selling writable, mini DVD's therse no chance of copying Gamecube games.

Those copier thingies are around $4,000 as Old Skool said.
And with this news look at this:

Hong Kong has found a way to pirate Gamecube games. Not on mini-CDs, but on the Panasonic Q. Read on what Lan-Kwei had to say:
But these news are just too good to wait any longer: Using the Panasonic Q with it's DVD playback availability, the first Gamecube games have been successfully pirated and copied onto DVD-R format. We have seen it with our own eyes and tested them immediately with our machines - no hoax this time. They work flawless with both modded and "naked" Qs. Available titles so far include Super Monkey Ball, Star Wars, Extreme GIII Racing and Hyper Sports 2002 Winter. All titles are japanese versions, because according to our source, "american titles are not widespread in the Hong Kong market due to a lack of potential customers with modified Panasonic machines, which are still very expensive and people still prefer the PS2", but we assume this may change very soon, as we all know, asians are going copy-crazy for everything. The backups retail in the local market for around US$ 12.
