Anywhere in Dublin that still sells Gamecube games?

    Just wondering, maybe as an alternative to ordering from the net. Is there?

    Gamestops everywhere

    The only GAME that does is Dawson St, and the selection isn't great.

    (I think) the GAME in the Ilac Centre has a good selection now and perhaps a few games worth picking up.

    Don't hold me to that though.

    There is one beside HMV on Henry Street and another on that street between Henry Street and the Ha'Penny Bridge (Liffey Street?).

    Anyone know where you can get Game Cube memory cards?
    I need 1 or 2

    Alot of places have start re-stocking their own brand Gamecube controllers and memory cards in wake of the Wii launch but Gamecube games are getting pretty thin. Best bet is either Ebay or you might try your luck in Games Exchange on Talbot St

    Last time I was in Game in the Ilac Centre their selection of GC games was awful. Only trade-ins, and only muck no one wants to buy (Fifas, various sports games on the GC no one bothers with). Couldn't find any GC games worth buying in town that day, only reason I went in too :(

    I had a look in Gamestop in Dun Laoghaire, and the selection was very poor (but good value at a tenner, if the titles were any good)..

    I just bought some from eBay. Super Smash Bros, Pikmin and Metroid Prime as well as a memory card. They were all reasonably cheap (10 euro each plus P&P) except for Super Smash Bros Melee which seems to go for ludicrous prices on eBay for some reason (cost me 22 euro).

    I reckon this is enough to start with, and I can swap these when I get bored of em. Now If I could just get some wireless controllers! Why won't the classic controller work with GC games?!

    GAME in the Ilac Centre had a load of games when i was in this morning... granted nothing amazing but a copy of Burnout 2 and Tales of Symphonia caught my eye as being worth some amount of money. I'm sure a bit of digging might garner more deals.

    :) It was a toss up between Wesker and Pyramid Head and the coin favoured the greatknife-toting fetishist.

    Only gamestop and Game do anything, Smyths don't do any gamecube stuff anymore. Picked up one of of the rogue squadron games in Gamestop near Hapenny bridge for €8 this afternoon . Other than that there really wasn't much. Theres a few of the mario style of gamecube stuff in gamestop on henry street up near the counter. That was about all. Looks like online is the best option overall.

    Did see a zelda game (four swords) in Game in Ilac but most of the decent stuff there was about €40-45 so didn't bother with it.

    Head up the road to the Dundalk one. Reasonable selection there.

    Gamestop in omni is decent. They wouldnt have any real nintendo games like windwaker or ssbm, just stuff like wrestling, resident evil. its like someone just chucked a whole load of random games onto a self. But if your thinking of buying a game, do it quick there :( I was going to buy pokemon channel for a fiver because I wanted jirachi, next day it was gone xd
