They are giving away the bonus disk with the GC now, I had to preorder Wind Waker for that thing.
If I remember right that Demo level is a stealth kinda thing, Its a cool level, but not a great representation of the game. There are little graphical touches all around that are amazing. Little Poofs of smoke and fire and stuff.

Whaaaaat. How can you NOT have a GC... You should pick up one, it's a great console. I vote Resident Evil 4 and Animal Crossing.

Well Super Smash Bros. Melee is an amazing multiplayer game if you have a couple friends that will possibly playing, but if not go with WindWaker and other games listed above.

Having the exact same decision as you, but all and all I've decided to wait for the Wii. I think all GC games are compatiable with the Wii.

I've already started to buy some GameCube games because the way I see it by the time the Wii comes out many GC games are gonna be gone. Most retail stores are probably not taking in more orders for GameCube games and just getting rid of what they already have in stock. Then your second bet would be small game stores which are probably doing the same right now but remember they a smaller stock supply. Then your last resort would be eBay ofcoarse!

GC Games List:
Legend of Zelda: Wind Walker (Twilight Princess has a version for the Wii)
Skies of Arcadia Legends (Love this game and I think it's gonna be very hard to find later on)
Tales of Symphonia (Namco is making another 'Tales' game for the Wii but I want to play the original also)
Fire Emblem (Not buying this yet waiting for price drop, also making another one for the Wii)

I won't be able to play me GC games until I have a Wii, but for now the PS2 is gonna hold me down.

Hope this helps...

Listen i0n, get SSBM, it's an awsome game, takes a long time to beat (a good thing) and a great single player game and one of the best multi-player games. It's probably one of the greatest games ever for nintenedo, and in my perspective ever made. Animal crossing is also a great game I can give u some great info on both games, as i've beaten both of them completely and good news, it took (much) longer than 1 & a half yr.s. So it should hold u over.
Here's a good site for looking up SSBM.
And here's a good site for learning what u do in the game. If u find what it says rather dull DON'T BLAME IT ON THE GAME! It's a very addictive and fun game. It has plenty of things to do, if u were to actually beat the game it would take like 3yrs.

I hope I could help and I hope u get those 2 games.

I was actually debating re-buying a GC today. I went to go buy it, and the store was closed. I wanted to play Melee again, so I think I'll go tomorrow.

Yeah, I had all the characters and statues when I first had the game. My brother sold my GC for $30 a few years ago and didn't tell me. I couldn't talk to him for a week. And, yes, I'm eagerly awaiting for SSBB (that's the reason for Samus).

I haven't played SSB or SSBM in such a long time, but Samus is one of my favorite characters, along with Link and a few others, but I won't be able to remember till tomorrow when I buy it again.

Lol, then I guess i'll have to w8 for my answer. But in the meantime, do u think u'll like samus or zero-suit samus in SSBB better?

ZeroSS has a gun, her whip and probably some kick ass...kicks
Normal Samus would most likely be the same, energy ball, missiles, fire and standard punching
