I thought Nintendo made the game cube.
Maybe it is a compatible system that panasonic bought rights to in order to compete with sony.
At least that is my guess without having researched it.

This sentence makes it look like some sort of illegal bootleg GameCube, sort of like those good old 110(or so)-in-1 NES cartidges.
However, as much as i'd like it to be true, I call BS on that one.
A GameCube + CD-DVD-MP3 player+ mechanical disc tray + other minor stuff for less than a regular GameCube ? This can't be right.
Where did you get that info from ?

I do know this...
A year before it's release, Nintendo had said in interviews that Matshusita ( panasonic ) was given the green light to make potential set top boxes that would house the Game cube processor. This way Game cube could compete against Sony's PS2 if it became a set top box as well. Home entertainment system would be the next arena to do battle in.

the prices seem a little too good to be true... I would hope that a legit business would take credit cards... can I assume that everything sold in Romania has a similar discount?
But the best way to find out is to order something and let us know!

Nope, for some reason they only accept money wiring as payment (Western Union or MoneyGram). There is no address or phone number to contact either. They don't look to legit to me.

I was scammed once from Romania. Those basterds took $300 from me, but I got my revenge, went to the same guy, pretended to buy something else and kept calling him at 2PM Romanian time every night until he picked up for over a month. Felt good to hear every curse word in Romanian 5 times a day
I still call him periodically
