Well you may have read this and thought, WTF? Am I reading a blog from 2002 or something, well no your not, this is 2008 and this is why you should buy a GameCube. As we all know the worlds best selling console is the PS2, why? I don’t know why because at the time of it’s release, it had two major competitors, both better than it in my opinion. Nintendo’s GameCube, and the newcomer into the console wars the Xbox. I think that the main problem was that the PS2 practically had support for nearly all the games out there, this was because back in 1996 the original PlayStation was released and at that time you pretty much could have a PlayStation or an N64. Now although I think that the N64 was probably one of the best game consoles of it’s time many others didn’t agree. It was often regarded as the baby console, this was because although it had ton’s of games half of them were just, well overly childish. So the PS2 had the most support due to this, and in 2001, Microsoft and Nintendo tried to throw a monkey wrench into every thing Sony had done with the PS2, but any how this may have happened, but look at these consoles today. The Xbox is pretty hard to come by and the PS2 is still around £49.99. So what became of the GameCube, well it’s games were no major deal, mostly Nintendo titles, but that doesn’t matter because just today I walked into GAME, one fo U.K’s top Gaming shop’s, and as I was browsing around I spotted a GameCube, what immediately caught my eye was that this GameCube was brand new and also packaged with a brilliant game and one that can no doubt be regarded as one of the best games of all time, not just one of the best GameCube games, Resident Evil 4, Not to mention it was a limited edition Resident Evil 4 one, and the best bit was the price tag £9.98. I mean that’s amazing value for money, not only did I get a Limited Edition GameCube and a brilliant game but I also got a controller to use with my Wii on Mario Kart and of course Brawl, so I bought one, took it home, set it up and played (after playing a bit of Mario Kart), and it was great. And now I can add more to my consoles an Xbox 360, PS2, Wii and GameCube and soon that will be expanded to the DS as well, so buy a cube, even just for the controller, you could probably sell it on for more on eBay any way.
