GC games on Wii???

One of the main things i liked about the Nintendo DS the most was its ability to not only play DS games, but that Game boy advance games were compatible with the DS. This idea made myself ask the question: "will Gamecube games be compatible on a Wii??" I would be very thankful for anyone who can help me out on this one. thnx heaps

Yes, the Wii has some Gamecube ports and memory cards and also somewhere to put your game cube games. But u can't play with the Wii-mote

Actrually I think the port for the Wii discs is the same as the port for the gamecube discs.

& what's even better is that since the wii can play gc games i can sell my gamecube and the money from that can go towards wii games since I believe i've driven my parents crazy to get me that thing for my birthday(nov.)

You will only get 40 dollars back if you sell your gamecube, which isn't even enough for one Wii game

Yeah but a Gamecube with a couple of old games will come up to around £100 then you could save up money to buy one

Exactly. Why trade it in for $40 when you can sell it to a friend for $50 and you both get a good deal.

I'd rather keep mine, them when I'm like 450 years old, I'll have the total collection of consoles, and make millions. [lol] That's actually not a bad idea though, my parents would never go for it though. Their just like that.

I could sell mine to my friend, and he could buy my games, but I won't sell all of my controllers, because I still want to play Super Smash Bros Brawl
