    I went shopping today and was amazed to see the gamecube NFSU edition only costed 85 euro ! it was priced down from 260 euros.. also all the games cost 15 to 20 euros ..

    so i bought the NFSU edition and return of the king :D

    Are prices that low everywhere now?

    Might be time for a 2nd for LAN Mario Kart DD!
    Paulo, where did you see your £45 one?
     

  7. ...Huh!

    So your selling your GC to buy a GC?

    Why not fit a Viper yourself to cut out the middleman?

    ...Takes less than two minutes to install :)

    Rowny, those are all EA titles. If you watched the news you'd read that EA is selling their older titles at bargain prices (although most aren't worth even 20 euro's IMO).

    All GameCube titles from September 2004 untill now are mostly priced at 50 - 60 euro's. Expect a slight drop in these prices as more games are released at the end of this year.

    fuck, that's just insane! a game cube with bongos and a game for 45E, this equal 66 CAN! at this price, i can't even take the bongos with donkey konga, god dammit. the best deal i've seen so far here is 129.99 CAN for a game cube with soul calibur 2 and a player's choice of your choice, between Mario sunshine, Luigi mansion, metroid prime, windwaker, star fox and mario golf toad (something).


    a game cube for the price of a new release... :(

    and thx for the link paulo.

    And plus, you have those limited editions! gosh..
     

  20. Hmmm I dunno about links, maybe if you Google you might find summat.

    ...The BEST instructions are the proper official Viper ones that you should still be able to download from a search.

    If you get stuck lmk and I'll send 'em to yer.
