Panasonic Q Console System

When Nintendo and Matsushita decided to work together on the GameCube's unique drive and disks, they also agreed to allow Panasonic (a part of the Matsushita empire) to produce a GameCube, that would also play proper DVDs. Thus the Panasonic Q was born, but only released in Japan. Happily, you can now own one with the help of this Panasonic Q eBay auction. You'll be bidding on a complete, boxed system in great condition and a copy of The Tower of Druaga. Seller ships worldwide.

  4. @ BRIK: :)

    @ Mik: Absolutely. All the Panasonic Q lacked was an i/r controller.

  5. Surely you could just plug in a Wavebird? I/R controllers for games almost always suck.

  9. I was also at MAGfest. That same guy had an N64DD for $800 or something like that. And a Dr. 64 that I wanted oh so bad, but didn't have the $200 he asked for it.
