Not sure bout the Resident Evil one but this is what the almighty Wiki says:

Like its predecessor, the Nintendo 64, the Nintendo GameCube was available in a variety of colors. The two most common colors, made available during the system's launch, were "Indigo" (the "default" color) and "Jet Black". Later, Nintendo released GameCubes with a "Platinum" color scheme, marketed as limited edition. "Orange Spice" GameCubes were also manufactured, but were primarily available only in Japan.

Hello CCUers, there have been some good buys posted up lately! I wonder how the New Acquisitions thread will look during/after Christmas :)

Guilty Gear (PS) - great cond/complete/black label - amazon - £5.89

Guilty Gear X (PS2) - great cond/complete/black label - amazon - £2.94

Dead or Alive (PS) - great cond/complete/black label - ebay - £7.50

Dead or Alive 2 (PS2) - great cond/complete/black label - ebay - £3.89

Street Fighter Alpha Anthology (PS2) - goodish cond (discs a little too scratched for my liking)/complete/black label - a local game shop - £5

Megaman Zero 3 (GBA) - great cond/complete - ebay - £3.20

Saga Frontier 2 (PS - NTSC U/C) - great cond/complete/black label - ebay - £7.00

Unlimited Saga (PS2) - pristine (and I can see why no one would play this horrid excuse for an RPG)/complete with FFX-2 bonus disc - ebay - £2.50

Super Mario Sunshine (GC) - like new/complete/black label - ebay - £8

I've been looking to get into some beat'em'ups that aren't Tekken or Soul Calibur lol, still have many other series I'd like to get into though :D

The only reason I got Unlimited Saga was for the FFX-2 prologue disc... Eurgh is all I can say (about Unlimited Saga), it's certainly not going on the collection ever, even when I can be bothered to update it or take pics. Also I had to cancel my order for Yakuza 2 (which I just completed and is freakin awesome) and Persona 3 FES :( Hopefully I'll get them for Xmas or something :P

Edit was adding where some of the games were from (d'oh!)

Unlimited Saga (PS2) - pristine (and I can see why no one would play this horrid excuse for an RPG)/complete with FFX-2 bonus disc - ebay - £2.50

DebugJunky

Did that come with a FFX-2 disc in the states as well? I have Unlimited Saga but not sure if I have the other disc.....

EDIT: answered my own question:

"Unlimited Saga: Limited Edition was released in Japan on the same day as the regular version of the game. It included a promotional Unlimited SaGa Maxi Single CD, a 3-song CD. Unlimited Saga Collector's Edition was released in Europe and included a bonus DVD titled Eternal Calm Final Fantasy X-2: Prologue."

Yeah, the DVD was part of the FFX-2 promo pack as well in Europe and the US before it's release for the press and apparently was also a free disc with a US playstation magazine (youtube vid here).

Just a collection of cutscenes featuring mostly Wakka and Yuna really between events of X and X-2, kind of thing I'd usually watch on youtube and not buy :)

Psychic force 2012 - Dreamcast - $12

Final Fantasy - NES - $8

Animal Crossing:WW - DS - Free (re-"buy")

Mario 3 - NES - $10 (Was going to gift it, but person has it now)

Good one with '2012, Falcon.  I bought a Madcatz Arcade Gamestick on clearance at Wal-Mart for $25.  In the package were cards for Astropop, Frogger, and Time Pilot that all had expired codes, but thankfully they all went through with no problems.

Rogers Video is having their fabled 2 for 40 pre-owned games sale,

Normally I get to the store a few days into the promotion, but this time I was on the ball early. 

Tom Clancy's EndWar (X360) $20.00 USED COMPLETE

Dead Space (X360) $20.00 USED Complete

Gears of War 2 (X360) $20.00 Standard Edition USED No Book

Mercenaries 2: World in Flames (X360) $20.00 USED Complete

While I have Gears and Dead Space already at the price just getting them for gifts seemed like an amazing deal. Mercs and Endwar were two games I wanted to get but not new at 60 bucks so this was ideal. 

1. 1943, NES, v. fine, complete, R2, $9.99, Play-n-Trade
2. Battle Chess, NES, v. fine, loose, R4, $2.99, PnT
3. Burai Fighter, NES, v. fine, complete, R3, $4.99, PnT
4. Fist of the North Star, v. fine, complete, $9.99, PnT
5. Silkworm, NES, v. fine, loose, R2, $2.99, PnT
6. Spy vs. Spy, NES, v. fine, loose, R3, $1.99, PnT
7. Asterix and the Great Rescue, GEN, n. mint, no manual, R4, $2.99, PnT
8. ESWAT, GEN, v. fine, no manual, R1, $4.99, PnT
9. Skeleton Krew, v. fine, complete, R5, $4.99, PnT
10. Wiz-n-Liz, GEN, n. mint, complete, R5, $2.99, PnT
11. World of Illusion, GEN, n. mint, no manual, R4, $4.99, PnT
12. After Burner, 32X, v. fine, complete, R2, $5.99
13. Power Serve 3D Tennis, PS1, n. mint but for its nearly-ruined longbox, complete, $0.99, R7, PnT
14. Soul Nomad and the World Eaters, PS2, n. mint, complete, R0, $4.99, PnT
15. Beautiful Katamari, X360, n. mint, complete, R0, $5, Blockbuster 2-for-1 Sale
16. The Golden Compass, X360, n. mint, complete, R0, $5, Blockbuster
17. Spiderman: Friend or Foe, X360, n. mint, complete,R0, $5, Blockbuster
18. Virtua Fighter 5 Online, X360, n. mint, complete, R0, $5, Blockbuster

This all seemed great until I got home and found that Play-n-Trade forgot to put the Soul Nomad disc in the case.  Also, when I looked over the receipt, I found that they'd overcharged me for 3 of those games according to the price tags.  Now I've got to waste the gas and time to head back there tomorrow.  That's a big demerit for PnT.

WarioWare: Smooth Moves (WII) USED Complete $20.00

Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway (X360) USED Complete $20.00

While I already have the limited edition of BIA for PS3, I figured it was either that or a second copy of TOV, or Too Human so I figured why not, it was a deal!

Also a nice surprise as Toys R Us,

Halo 3 (X360)Limited Legendary Edition NEW $32.98

While I already have Halo 3, and I had no interested in the Helm Edition till I heard a matching bookend giant head was going to be coming with Halo Wars, I figured for 30 bucks why not?

Pokemon Stadium - cart only $5

I honestly don't know why I bought this :?

In a random pikadeth-esque moment, I went to GameStop looking for something for my wife's DS. Instead...

-Pikmin 2 (GCN), used/complete, $39 or so

followed me home. I HATE those infernal stickers that GameStop insists on slapping all over their stuff...it took me two hours to get all the goop off it.

Righty-o. First off, apologies for my absence from these boards of late. Added to the crazy work schedule I have (Credit crunch? No sign of that where I work!) I've also been pretty sick lately (and have no idea what the hell it is I've got, my doctors are still arguing about it).

None of this has stopped me from buying though.

from Game:

The Last Remnant (X360) - new, £19.56

Stranglehold (Collector's Edition) (X360) - new, £7.98

And hopefully I'll get back here a bit more regularly from now on :)

Looks like a lot of good Christmas' for everyone here, just about. Only a few games for myelf & the new wife, as  the money that we had for Xmas we used to get new Netbooks (I have an ASUS EEE PC 901 and the wife got an EEE PC 1000HA), so all we got was...

Metal Slug 7 (DS)

Exit DS (... DS)

Bangai-O (DS)

Tales of Symphonia: Subtitle I forget (Wii)

Legend of Kage 2 (DS) I cannot recommend this game anymore if I could try. It's a great old school action platformer

Also,on the 26th, I was able to get ahold of this...

Yep, it's another kiosk. This one ran me just $30 dollars and it's now sitting in our gameroom. And because I wanted to show pictures but haven't had them until now, here's some pics of the gameroom as it is. Still need to add more shelving cuz there are too many games for the current shelves and I don't like that tiny bookcase.
