Something very interesting up on Ebay. For the rich only.

A GC that plays DVDs, VCDs, and games. Is this official, or was it modded? I've never seen this before.

This was available when the Gamecube was first launched in Japan only as I remember. The price seems reasonable because I remember seeing import Q systems available for around $400 back in 2001 when they were new.

Shipping is $100 so the total will be $450. Is that naruto game any rare?

[number6]

I am guessing that is still a good price considering you still can't buy them here in the USA.

Ouch with the $100 shipping. $350 is a pretty good price for it though, even if it's not complete. Lik-sang was selling theirs for $450 I believe.

If that Panasonic Q can play US games, $450 is not too bad considering you get the Naruto game.

I don't know if it's the exact same model or not, but Best Buy DID sell a Panasonic Gamecube that could play DVDs. So there was one like this available stateside. I actually remember seeing them in the store. They had sort of a mirror finish on them. I'm thinking it may have been a BB exclusive though. Anyone else remember these? I'm not crazy...I promise x_x...at least I don't think I am...

Maybe you went to a special Best Buy because I never saw them at Best Buy during the time Gamecube has been out.

[Darren870]

Those were japanese only. Who know what you saw at best buy but it probably wasn't that. Sorry

[jdchess]

Maybe I'm going crazy I'll see if I can find out what it was I remember seeing there exactly. Seems like what I remember did NOT have the LCD on top like those do. Does anyone know of another version at all?

That Panasonic Q is cheap. I would buy one and that one has a good price...but the shipping kinda stinks. They have region free ones...I think it was...or it has to be modded to be region free. I cant remember which it is.
