or Buy a Action Replay, and buy a European GC power cord and you can use a GC from any country.

Wait I keep forgetting about the damed TV formats, why do you Europeans mess with Perfectly fine Ntsc and make it PAL.
and why do they have 240v outlets, what are they gonna use 240v for?
Charging their Hybrid's Batteries? Running a factory in their homes?

now I know why people think Europeans are weird.

lol Sorry if I offended anyone.

Ok here you go:

1) We didn't do anything to NTSC, they were made at around the same time, and so neither is a modified version of the other. We use PAl because it gives off better video quality, and it is cheaper to produce PAL CDs and DVDs.
2) We have 240v as an option. Better to have the option or running something off 240v, then wanting to and not having the resources.

I guess it doesn't matter that one american thinks we are weird, as the rest of the world think americans suck.

i could get you a gamecube for like 50 euros but shipping would be a female of the dog species. and btw pal was made after ntsc and i dont care if it is an improvement you should go and copulate around with something that is good enough and make yourself incompatible with the rest of the world, but on that note atleast in was an improvement much unlike the french secam which was made just because some french king wanted to be different because he was arrogant. there is no reason for 240 volts anywhere, unless its all the europeans and other countries who use 240 just want the fat americans and other vacationers to either break theyre stuff or electrocute themselves,which works btw i didnt realise spain was 240 when i first moved here and plugged in my american tv to play some conker and my tv started smoking, its pretty pointless. okay im done ranting

How is it cheaper to make PAl CDs and DVDs? Cuz I would like to know.
Because all the Differance in PAL and NTSC is that the Region is set in any given player and if it doesnt have the Ntsc or PAL code on the Disc, it wont play.

I can Play PAL games on my unmodded PS1 using swap meathod, so how are PAL CD and DVDs cheaper to make again?
and google fight proves nothing, just how many things are picked up on the search engine.

see?

I seriously hope you are joking, what about when you copied our language and changed it to be original, or when you copied our road laws and changed them to be original? Also, you are pretty much the only place that uses NTSC. Another one of the american's wannabe differences.

How do we know those 2 are from the countries they say they are?
and since when do European women look like that, and our women look like that? You may not have as many fat people, oh and nice teeth, every pic of a European person, or any european person I see on TV, all have nasty looking teeth.
*Shudders*

Yeah, America is going down the drain due to the influx of stupid people living there. And politics just suck too, everybody is corrupt in one way or another. What we need is democratic socialism.
