Will a dedicated European one ever come out? If so, forget the GameCube!

Hope that gets released down in Australia. I'd get that instead of the normal one out right now.
Then again I got a DVD/VCD/CD all in one player so I don't know.

Argh, bugger it plays Jap & U.S. releases. Oh well!
I don't think you can convert it.

Panasonic rules!!!

Everything I have (sell-phone, music-installation etc. etc.) is Panasonic. And I never had any problems with it.

And second the design is great!!!
Look at that thing!!! game-cube is just cube-of-plastic compared with that thing!!!

And I agree with Fruitloopdesign:
look at the price! then add shipping... all to play a game??


cheers

Nintendo gamecube is for kids. Now gamecube from Panasonic. Isn't that's the version for adults?

Mark P,
It doesnt happen verry often that i post, or that i say such garbage but sometimes i do love you.. Thanx for that link!

[gerbick]

fully modded ones can be purchased from NCSX Importers. Gee, I thought you guys knew about this one. Been reviewed in the past.

Honestly, it's sorta weird. They don't autorecognize a Gamecube game or DVD when you put one in. You have to manually switch it.

A couple of other quirks, but they're beautiful.

modded means that it will play any region DVD, and any region game. However, it's NTSC @ 60hz, not PAL @ 50hz.

This one is both NTSC and PAL... anyway you can order a convertor from liksang.com too

You damn right it's gonna be hot in Japan. It's ashame though it's not coming to North America. I still can't figure out why. Sales will project through the roof if it did. I'd sell my GCN and buy that in a second.


Nintendo for life
