Get a Wii - they play all the old games.

Or buy a cube from ebay they go for a song.

Re: Gamecube Lcd screens???

Got a wii back at home mate at my nans now tho for a week and dusted off my 5 or 6 yr old gamecube today it was littered with dust. Still powers up great and works fine even brought some of me cube games with me to play but would love a screen just so i can relax in the front room and level up on pso lol as i can use my memory card to take my save from my wii at home and use it in my cube. Best underrated console ever in my opinion so many great games on it i would still love to play

I used to have an LCD screen for my Gamecube, was actually pretty good and was handy as in it's day the Gamecube was pretty portable so handy for little breaks away.

I would think ebay would be your best chance of picking one up now, you could try posting a Wanted ad in the classified section of the forums first though Gaming Classified Adverts - AVForums.com

Never really gone down the ebay option is it safe to buy off there with your debit card????

Would love to pick one up so i dont have to lock myself away for hours on pso in the bedroom lol would love to just chillax playing it in the front room watching tv at the same time. Whats the biggest size screen they come in???

Bare in mind that i did see a gamecube console with about 4 games plus the lcd screen and 3 months warrenty for 54:99 including postage this any good?

Re: Gamecube Lcd screens???

I always use paypal with ebay purchases, paypal certainly seem to protect the buyer(a bit too much IMO as leaves sellers open to exploitation) so I never worry about it.

As for size, I think they're 6" diagonal from memory, probably all the same size I would think to match the console.

With regards the bundle you've seen for sale, doesn't sound like a bad purchase if it's what you're after, probably depends a little if the games are of interest to you also.
