There might still be a reason you'd want a GameCube. The Game Boy Player, maybe? Quick access to Cubivore without the hassle of the Wii Menu? Holding down papers in a drafty room? If you find yourself in need of Nintendo's newest old system, Amazon is selling them today for $60. It's not the best deal ever, but $60 isn't terrible for something that will run Ikaruga.You're more likely to be interested in Amazon's other Deal of the Day offering: a Platinum GameCube controller for $17. If you need more controllers for Super Smash Bros. Brawl, this is a good time to stock up. These will no doubt sell out soon to enthusiastic Brawlers!

"The Game Boy Player, maybe? Quick access to [insert name of GC game here] without the hassle of the Wii Menu?"
Those are exactly the reasons I choose to keep my GC after getting a Wii. Although I can't help but wonder if that was Nintendo's deliberate reason for removing those features.

It's certainly not the sexy white GC pad with the double cable length though.
Though it is like $25, but still cheaper than most first-party controllers.

For a better deal check your local Wal-mart. The ones near me has had them at $49.00 for the past few weeks. Seems to be the new price to clear stock out.
