Bit unlucky there mate - great games by the way - all is not lost - freeloader will/should enable your UK gamecube to play these US games.

I have the original free-loader (the 1st version that came out) and that enabled my US Gamecube to play UK games.

Worst case is that you might end up selling them but they should fetch a good price on eBay etc

Good luck

Alan

I have a later version. It even lets me play US and Japanese GC games on my PAL Wii or GC.
