So buying a code from GAME incurs a £6.66 VAT surcharge, so that's £46.65 total.

So I might as well buy it off the eShop, unless there's VAT charges I'm not aware of on there too.
 
How about an F-Zero GX skin DLC?

Something like this?

Like I said in the other thread.. if there's DLC for this game, the best we can hope for are characters and/or karts, bikes, etc.

Got to play the demo today at Target. I guess they recently updated their demo kiosk recently because it was found there along with the rest of the demos. May be worth checking out your local Target if anyone is interested. It was actually a pretty decent demo with all of the characters available, a few karts available and about 6 tracks.

Played the demo as well but at Walmart. Didn't play much though because the GamePad was disgusting --had to grab a hand sanitizer right after haha.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.

That google list is intimidating as fuck. You would max out the friends twice over and then some adding it all, goddamn.

I was going to play the demo at Future Shop but that gamepad looked like it was dripping with ebola.

Speechless regardless.

It was 60fps on Gamecube...WITH 30 RACERS ON SCREEN

Dammit Nintendo...Whyyyyyyyy! :(



You're in the majority. Game bombed horribly IIRC.

GameCube was a piece of art tbqh.
Mario Kart Double Dash ran at 60fps with 4 players on screen.
afaik, it's the only game in the series that archived such thing.
All in all, just like the Wii U, the GameCube was an underrated console with outstanding games.

Wait, what?

Edit: I just put it in the basket and even though it says £6.66 VAT the total still shows as £39.99.

VAT is already included in the price, at least it was for me.

Total cost of products: £39.99
Delivery charge: £0.00
VAT included: £6.66
Order Total: £39.99

There's still hope left for you, CrimsonCommie. Find a copy of F-Zero GX and pop that fucker into your GameCube. Be dazzled by its stellar sense of speed before being decimated by its high degree of challenge. Then overcome those challenges and feel like a racing god. Be one with the machine, for only then will you know greatness. Also, kill Black Shadow.

Godspeed and good luck.

Graphically, however, double dash wasn't really pushing the GC that much, and the GC had quite a lot to offer under it's tiny hood (for the time). Frame rate was probably the biggest concern for double dash.

Anybody know how soon the game.co.uk download codes are emailed out?

I'm imagining midnight Thursday, so essentially Friday?
