How many of you folks are planning on picking up a GameCube on their release on the 18th of November?

I'm gonna get one.

You know I am

I've already pre-ordered it along with Luigi's Mansion, SW Rogue Squadron and Pikmin.

i dunno. i m going to test out gamecube and xbox to decide my answer.

YES I AM!

Reasons NOT to get Xbox:

Runs on Windows, unstable (crashed on the E3 floor in the middle of a game), the developer support isn't good, the number of consoles available is minimal (although that doesn't effect the system itself. As for the Current Software Library, besides DOA3 and maybe, MAYBE Halo (we don't know if it's good yet), there is the notable lack of a SINGLE killer app, and few franchise entries that would really make anyone look twice. Many Xbox games are available on other platforms - hardly a compelling reason to take a chance on this newcomer - and the exclusive titles are primarily original games that lack a proven track record to attract gamers. $300 risk

GameCube, on the other hand:

Super SMAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH BROTHERS!!!!
Luigi's Mansion (Bustin' Ghosts)
Zelda
Mario
METROID PRIME
Star Fox Adventures
Resident Evil (EXCLUSIVE ENTIRE SERIES)
Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 2!
Wave Race: Blue Storm
Soul Caliber 2
(there's a list of about 185 games in production)

$200 and you WILL be satisfied.

Oh yeah. I didn't get a chance to pre-order mine, so I'll be standing in line for awhile on the 18th.

HECK YEAH I'M GETTING IT! Preordered actually.

hmmm sounds like i m getting gamecube!

I'm not getting either. I'm happy with my computer.

1333 MHz AMD
256MB PC2100
GForce2 400MX

I'm saving up, I'd like to get the GameCube along with the PS2 & X-Box at the same time.

I pre-ordered a Gamecube from ebgames.com! Can't wait for launch
