GameCube now a Hundred Bucks

This is bound to bang Cube sales past XBox for sure worldwide, without any doubt. Maybe even in the USA...that is unless XBox follows suit with their own price cut soon.

*still remembers paying $200 for mine.*

Hopefully Nintendo will drop the SP to at least $79.99 and the GBA to like $59.99 and the GB Player to $39.99. Then hopefully they will gain more money from all the handheld playing "options". But then again, the SP is fairly new so I doubt they will drop SP's price for awhile. But who knows. Maybe Mr. Bob will see a handheld and a console for the same price and go for the console.....

$140 I'm still not willing to pay. I think the system is worth the money for sure...lots of good games, but I don't even have enough time for my PS2 and its game library. And then there's XBox.

Wow I can buy another one and use it for my 8 player Mario KArt lan.

Question........Do you need 8 copies of Mario Kart to run it on a LAN?

I think it depends on how many TV's you want each person to use. If you want 8 people and only you and another person have a 'Cube and MK: DD, then 4 on each TV would work (I think). But if the heavens listen and you have 8 Players with 8 'Cubes, 8 Copies of MK: DD, and 8 TV's, then you can have some great LAN'ing. (Or even better would be 16 people

)

You need a disc for every gamecube. You can use two gamecube, 4 gamecube, or 8 gamecubes. The more you have, the bigger everyone's person screen area is big.
