jcarr492 Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 Anyone know of a Gamecube bundle anywhere? We saw one at Sams tonite for 162.xx that came with one controller and two games..but was wondering if there is one for a better price anywhere? Thinking of getting it for the girls for their main gift. Dh wanted the PS2..but I think they would enjoy the games more to choose from with gamecube(they are 8 and 7yr old girls).
boogeo Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 GameCube System w/ G3 Controller, Game Wallet, Custom Console Skin, 6' Extension Cable and Used Game 114.00 value for 79.99 at EB games and Gamestop. They open at 7:00 AM on black friday.
jcarr492 Posted November 18, 2006 Author Posted November 18, 2006 Where are you seeing that at? I looked at EBGames and Gamestop ads and at the sites and didn't see anything. do you have a link? Is this gonna be a BF deal only or can I get it now?
Ferg1221 Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 Those sound like a refurbished price. Nothing wrong with that though.
johjstc Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 Walmart usually has good gamecube bundles. I got my sons for 99 and it had an extra controller and a mario game that was going for 50 and the microphone. You could check there.
zxcvbnm Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 IF Nintendo is the company you want why not get them a Nintendo Wii? It might be out of your price range but for $350 you could get the system, another controller, and one game of your choice. There is no bundle but I am doing round numbers for you here. Plus, if you have cable internet or at least high speed you can download older games and also buy Game Cube games to play on the Wii. Like I said, it may be out of your price range but would be the way to go in my mind. The game that the system comes with is full of simple sports that the girls could play together on. And, if you have any worries of finding one dont be because there should be plenty out there.
jcarr492 Posted November 19, 2006 Author Posted November 19, 2006 thanks, but 350.00 for a video game system is too steep. Not that I don't have the money for it...but ick..350.00. and they aren't avid players. they have the old original playstation my brother gave them when they were 2 and 3yrs old...(now 7 and 8) and they dont play it that often, but then again..they have limited games cause most of them are rated T or M...so guess I'll be selling all that.
Gurnee Al Posted November 19, 2006 Posted November 19, 2006 I would think with all of the craziness around PS3 and Wii, there should be some good deals somewhere on the Gamecube. You might want to try eBay also.
jcarr492 Posted November 19, 2006 Author Posted November 19, 2006 yeah, i've got my eye on two on ebay right now. one comes with 4 controllers and 3 games plus original packaging so not too bad..but their opening bid is 120.00 or a buy it now for 150.00..ends in 3hrs and the other ends in about 30 min..but it only has one contoller, but has 2 games and comes with the 5.4" lcd screen that attaches to it also...its currently at 54.00..but reserve not met yet..or a buy it now of 200.00...seems too much to me though.
