The Gamecube was the first generation six console I got when I was 14 years old. It was a Christmas gift from my grandmother, she bought me the Mario Kart Double Dash bundle, which came with a platinum GC, two controllers and the game of course. I still have my Gamecube and it's still working like a charm! I have many great memories playing Timesplitters:Future Perfect with my cousin during the summertime, same with Mario Kart Double Dash. While I don't have MKDD anymore, I still have the save files on my memory card, I want to get another copy soon. I even had the GB Player, but I made the mistake of trading that in to my local game store... :\
