Which version? Mk 2 or Mk 1? I have one of the new Mk 2's and I've been very pleased with it. I'm thinking about buying Vektar as i've been addicted to the demo for ages.

Yeah the gamecube is a brilliant console. But I think that the only way to really enjoy it is with a friend in multiplayer games. Don't get me wrong the gamecube had some great single player games but I don't think they can stand up easily to SSB:M or Mariokart DD.

My friend was saying that gamecube sucks because its graphics aren't as good as xbox's. Its works both ways, the gamecube disc has 1/3 the data capacity, but xbox doesn't have 3x the graphics. GC is just plain fun, I kinda wish I had gotten one instead of an xbox.
xbox-8 games
N64(2)-9 games
genesis-2 games
GBA, dead-7 games
GBC, overclocked- 5 games
I might have missed a couple games.
