I'm looking for a Gamecube boadband adapter... hoping to do some 8-player Mario Kart Double Dash over the holidays.
Let me know if you have one for sale, used or new.

Thanks!

Why don't you just get one new from Fry's Electronics they have them for $29.99.  If you don't have a Fry's near you I can go pick one up for you.  Or you can order from their website.

i remember seeing an adapter for 4 or 5 usd at an ebgames or gamestop.  if you dont have any of those let me know and i'll try and find one for you.  though i would have to hip it to you from the states.

Make sure it is a BroadBand adapter and not a ModemAdapter.  They look very similar.

I just received notification that the broadband adapter at Fry's is backordered... I'm leaving my order with them in place in the hope that they will get more in, but if anyone has a used one let me know.

Thanks,

Last time I was at Fry's they had plenty of them on the shelf.  If you want I can go pick one up for you and then mail it to you.
