Single GC-GBA Player Color?

[bandit]

I want me a Platinum one. If they are going to release it, at least release the colors that are here stateside..Black, Indigo, and Platinum.

Take a look at the Spice controllers we got, they never even released the Spice system here. I guess it was to see if the color would generate sales? But from an accessory?

Nintendo are cheap fucking bastards. Give the Japanese gamers the good stuff, and hand us the left overs. Actually, ALL the companies are like that.

I might hold off on the Player if there is no Platinum Player. Must color coordinate with my items.

At least you Indigo Cube owners get the matching modem

Actually they did release the Spice GC here in limited numbers. When I picked up my Cube right after launch. I had a choice between Spice, Black and Indigo if I remember correctly.

I suggest everyone who would like the other colors released at lauch or as soon after launch as possible email Nintendo of America with your concerns.

I sent them a message and got a nice reply back, tho not very informative. At least it's been forwarded on to the appropriate people I guess:

Hi Ryan,

Thanks for taking the time to share your comments with us. It's true
that the Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Player is being released in the US only in Jet Black. There hasn't been any explanation as far as why, and I wouldn't want to speculate about that. I am going to forward your e-mail along to the appropriate departments here at Nintendo for review.

Thanks for your email and good luck with all your games!

Be professional about it and maybe we can get our matching colors because we're gay geeks.

Um... why would any of you buy a gay pride purple Gamecube anyway?

[Wolffen]

Because my wife wanted that color?

[skelly]

So why is she gay, then?

Because some of us aren't homophobes and we don't mind purple.

Ben, Ben, Ben. Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry. I wanted black, but she had to have the purple. The PS2 was my b-day present, so the GC was her b-day present. So it was her color choice. Sigh. You get used to it after awhile.

(Sidenote: if she was gay, yet married to me, that would make her bi, wouldn't it? Which would make most men happy...)

My broadband adaptor is black

but you cant see that too much

im begging to think since these are only 40 bucks and more like 33 bucks with my discount i may just buy a black one when it comes out and then if platinum comes out down the road buy that

but i agree its way fucking lame of them to just release the black one here

[Despair]

Or maybe you really a woman, dude
