1. 3 ports on the bottom of the machine. I know one is for BBA/56K and another for the Gameboy Player, what does the third do?

No idea, but does that really matter since both NES and SNES had ports on the bottom and you saw how nonused NOA made them

You could also add Tales of Phantasia to that list if it makes it's way over here... I so hope it does

Reviews of the Sonic collection seem to indicate that Sega got the emulation right. Thank goodness.

Never had any problems with em.

3. What forthcoming games interest you?

Resident Evil 4 (maybe)
F-Zero
Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles
P.N.03
Sonic Adventure 3 (I didn't realize this was being made)
Zelda

A lot of the Gamecube games come with free memory cards, so I doubt you'll be buying very many of them. As for upcoming software, I'm very excited. The Cube is really turning out great. Games I'm hot for:

Mr Driller Drilland
Zelda
Viewtiful Joe
Biohazard 4
Eternal Arcadia Legends
F-Zero
Gamecube Game Boy Player


There's probably a few I've forgotten. I really do wish Nintendo would get around to releasing the Wavebird/Silverbird in Japan though.

The only upcoming Cube games that have caught my eye so far are:

F-Zero
Killer 7
Zelda
Resident Evil 4

And possibly Viewtiful Joe. But the Super GBA (and Prime) are looking like the best reasons to own a Cube so far.

Upcoming:
F-Zero
Starfox Armada
Legend of Zelda
Viewtiful Joe
PN 03
Killer 7
Dead Phoenix
Resident Evil 4
Summoner: the Prophecy
Skies of Arcadia Legend
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicle
Gladius
Dungeons and Dragons Heroes
Starcraft Ghost
True Crime Streets of LA
Virtua Fighter Quest
Galleon
Tales of Phantasia

Sidez, don't forget to grab Biohazard Remake and Eternal Darkness (should be out in Japan now).
