    Cheers for this. The Gamecube is a great little system. I'm tempted to buy one even though I've already got a PS2.

    Its a shame the market for the Cube is dwindling in this country.
    Boo!

    I was in Argos yesterday (Maidstone) and they had the Mario Smash Football bundle in stock for £49.99 - even though it still says £79.99 on the website. I checked on the little box and it said 49.99 on there too. I'm not sure if it came with a bundle or not, but was advertised in the clerance booklet rather than in the ordinary booklet. The controller was only £2.49 though and memory card £1.49.

    Sales don't always reflect the hardware. The fact the PS2 is the top selling console says it all really.
    MFW 2015 #41 = £20,515/£20,515
    MFW 2014 #41 = £26,100/£25,000

    Original MF date = May 2036 - MF achieved on 15 June 2015

    Just reserved one in Chester (near home) and I'll be picking it up on Wed morning, along with an extra controller (at only £2.99) and a memory card (at £1.49!)

    Great stuff. Cheers OVERLORD!

    :D
    Boo!

    Well guys, I can't believe it. We have been ripped off by a bargain! (;))

    Argos will pay you to take away one of their free controllers, memory cards and just for good measure will stick in a free game too! All for UNDER £49.99!

    P.S I think the games you can pick from are:
    The Incredibles - 567/7751
    Spiderman 2 - 567/6927
    Sonic Adventure 2 - 567/6934
    Sonic Heroes - 567/5760

    Might be hard finding stock of the games though? I found a Mario Gamecube, Controller, Memory Card and Incredibles game in a store local to me. Not that much good since I bought one of these the other day on its own for £49.99 :(
  • would be great if only I could find a gamecube console in stock in my area :(
