Re: Gamecube
well in the usa its the top selling console because of the price drop! amazing what a price drop can do!
and since the ps2 price drop the sales have risen dramatically which to me doesnt make sense cos doesnt nearly everyone that wants a ps2 already have one?! :shrug: I dont own one but then i dont want one?! anyway back to the gamecube - we will have to see how the price cut that took effect from yesterday has changed the sales of the cube - the drop in price from argos did help for a while! we will see but i like my silver cube but i prefer my xbox, but the cubes been getting played a bit more since i got mario sunshine ( yeah i know it was a bit late - but ive got it now! :p) |
