I'm the proud owner of a Nintendo GameCube, and I was wondering if anybody knew where I could get more games for it? I already have Timesplitters 2, Mario Kart, Mario Smash Football, Star Wars Rogue Squadron, Wario Ware and GoldenEye- Rogue Agent, but I'd like to add Mario Superstar Baseball ( I believe it's rare on these shores) and Super Smash Bros Melee to the collection, amongst others.

I have before, but might just do so again, particularly for Mario Superstar Baseball as I believe its rare on these shores, being a predominantly American sport. And last time I looked up Super Smash Bros the sellers were asking silly money for an old game! In answer to your question yes I have played on an N64 and loved it, GoldenEye was an awesome game as were Perfect Dark 64 and Mario Kart 64. I saw an original N64 console for sale on Ebay the other day for £10 with two controllers and some games and was really tempted to go for it, it was a red one.

And there was a curious and I presume rare one that was blue and had a Pikachu graphic on it, which must mean it was a special one made to promote Pokemon Stadium, which was the only N64 game in that series. I do like Nintendo consoles, I had a Game Boy and now have an Advance one alongside the Cube, as well as a PS2.

Funny I have to admit to liking the cartridge format on the Nintendos...they were much handier to load and alot less likely to break and you couldn;t scratch them like a game disc from other consoles like the playstation

I used to also love Sega Megadrive and SNES aswell for exactly the same reason

I forgot they released them in different colours...I don't recall the blue one at all though

The 10 quid for the Nintendo and games sounds very good ...I thought you would pay more....in retro terms

Yeah, I liked the old school cartridge consoles too, I still have my first two, a Sega Master System and MegaDrive up in my loft. I used to love them! But as I got older I moved with the times and got a PS1 followed by PS2. But then the retro bug bit me and I picked up a £20 GameCube!

Morphy, a good place to go would be Gamestation. They usually have a good choice of Gamecube games and sometimes rare ones that go for a fortune on ebay.

Awesome cheers guys! I notice Smash Bros is just under £20, may be worth investing in.
