Time to open the box and get out the US GameCube love! So what's all inside? Take a look!

The Box!
Pulling out the AC adapter
Taaaaadaaaaaaaaa!
Not too much separates the North American and Japanese GameCube packages.
1. The Japanese package opens from the top, and the North American opens from the side.
2. The North American package comes with an AV cable.
3. The North American package contains English manuals and documentation.
Outside of that, the only other thing that I noticed was that there will be the same Bar Code scanning on the GameCube as there was for the N64. GameCube registration can be done online, or by sending in the registration card.
