I have played all three of the current console systems (PS2, X-Box, and Gamecube). My favorite by far is the Nintendo Gamecube. It seems to load much faster than PS2 and X-Box. The graphics are better than PS2 and on the level of X-Box. Plus, the Gamecube is cheaper and very portable. Gamecube however lacks a hard-drive and it has extremely limited online gameplay. But, Gamecube makes up for this with a super comfortable controller and excellent exclusives such as Mario Kart Double Dash which is packaged with this bundle. This game is very fun and it's for Gamecube only. I definitely suggest buying this bundle.

I bought this exact package from GameStop, but from an actual store, not online. They gave me their Accessory pack for free, which included a 2nd controller, two controller extension cables, a small memory card and a folder to put your games in. It was an excellent buy.

The graphics are great and the games are fun! We love Mario Kart, and cheap (but good) used games are plentiful. For under $100 you can't do better! If you are a FPS-type player, maybe you'd be better served with an XBox (PS2 is too old now), but if you like arcade or puzzle games as I do, or you want games for your children to play, GameCube will not disappoint.

5.0 out of 5 stars Start Those Gamecube Engines!!, December 25, 2004

Last Year, Nintendo really seemed to outgrow the traditional racing games with Mario Kart: Double Dash!! for the Nintendo Gamecube. The game became one of the most popular games for the video game system. Yet, Nintendo also has found many different ways to really seel their magnificent video games with their systems. They have done it before with the Gamecube with classic games like Super Mario Sunshine, and incredible offers like a free Game Boy Player attachment to the Gamecube awhile ago. Yet, with all those other video game systems with little to none in supply, Gamecube works in very well conditions.

The Mario Kart Holiday Bundle for the Nintendo Gamecube includes a well created Gamecube, a pair of controllers, and the exciting Mario Kart: Double Dash video game. The game itself, is one of the most exciting racing games that has ever been released for the Nintendo Gamecube, where you can race through many outrageous courses including the exciting Rainbow Road, the classic dark and spooky Bowser's Castle, the unbelieveable Mario Circuit, and a few exciting battle tracks that are sure to knock your socks off. The game also includes some unlockable bonuses including characters like Petey Piranha, King Boo, Toad, and even more wacky and crazy racers to choose from.

With so many stores sold out on Playstation 2, Xbox, and Nintendo's newest handheld game system Nintendo DS, you really don't have much around to choose from. Yet the Nintendo Gamecube: Mario Kart Holiday Bundle edition is really one worth the purchase on its own. The only downside is that it doesn't come with a memory card which it a must for saving all the files for this, or any Gamecube game. That is seperately. Still, for anybody, Gamecube is more worth its money than people realize within the race.
