Have it at £125 from Amazon, and £130 from Comet, Woolworths, Argos....

Hmmm maybe it is time to move to XBox from the good old PS2

Also, Blockbuster has gamecube for £99.

Why would it not be around for much longer? The user base has probably doubled in the past month with all these discounts, and unlike Sega and the dreamcast Nintendo have the financial muscle to back the gamecube up.

Also, don`t forget out of the three regions Europe is the smallest, and Japan is second, where the xbox struggles against other consoles such as the wonderswan.

Wonderswan?

Exactly.
