Platinum GameCubes now fifty bucks on Amazon

Amazon currently has a pretty sweet Deal of the Day (or an awful one if, like this blogger, you get paid tomorrow): a Platinum GameCube for just $50. Obviously, if you're reading this site, you probably already have at least one way to play 'Cube games, in which case we advise you view this as a chance to:
  1. Plump up your Nintendo console collection.
  2. Invest in a cheap gift for a loved one.
  3. Grab a spare if the unthinkable should ever happen.
  4. Buy two and duct-tape them together for a $100 Wii.

Nintendo offers prizes, likes Japan more than us

Posted Dec 29th 2006 5:00PM by Jason Wishnov

Nintendo of Japan has long supported a "Club Nintendo" program by which ridiculous fanboys (like us) get to register their purchased consoles and software for various rewards. Of course, we have a similar "registering" procedure at MyNintendo.com, but we rarely have anything to show for it ... we got a Metroid Prime 2 demo disc, once. Woo-hoo.

It turns out that platinum members (a status obtained by magically accruing four hundred points in a year) of Club Nintendo get to choose between two wonderful prizes: Tingle's Balloon Fight, for the DS, or a custom battery pack cover with your very own Mii imprinted on the back. Such a difficult decision! Whilst they ponder, perhaps we may spirit away these prizes in the night. Who's in?
