I am telling you guys, the Cube is getting more respect now that the Wii is out than it did in its entire lifespan. I am absolutely loving it! I am not sure if the following conjecture would mean that people want a Wavebird to play VC games, or because they are picking up Cube games. Let's hope for both.

Game People has been tracking the price of the Wavebird since it originally came out. It seems that we are seeing a rise in the price of the Wavebird due to Wii activity. Check out the tracking below.

GameCube Launch Price £34.99 (Electronics Boutique)
Mid GameCube £27.99
Late GameCube £22.99 (Game)
End of Gamecube life £5.99 (WH Smiths Sale)
Wii Launch £17.99 (Play.com)
Post Christmas price £24.99 (Amazon.co.uk)

It may be purely coincidental, and based on the retailer...but some of it has to do with the Wii release. Long live the Cube (in one way or another!).
