    That's great news, hopefully the prices will drop again around Christmas time for all of the systems...

    Well I didn't really think they needed to drop the price since they've been out selling both PS2 and X-Box lately, but it definitly should help sell some more consoles. With Eternal Darkness, Mario Sunshine, Metroid Prime, and Zelda all scheduled to be released within the year it looks like it'll be a great year for Nintendo fans.

    Its good to see the drop, but considering they are already doing well - and the fact that the other systems are now at the same price - i would have repackaged, with a game, and maybe a new system color. That would have been a good way to gain the upper hand.

    2 years from now, every game for GC will be Mario or Pokemon related.
