Thanks to everyone on the boards also, all I can say is about time! Don't worry if you just use xploder to boot it up, they can't detect it since it doesn't save anything at all into the memory.
Unfortunately, Gamecube has officially been delayed until November 18th. The only upside is that it willl now launch in both black and purple flavors. For more information, check out Gamespot
Looks like they removed the "Credit card required for online play" sticker... anyways thanks Gally and Swirlvision.
The site doesn't say much about the two new battle modes. Apparently, "Battle 5" stars two teams in the challenge to collect the most meseta (you keep your current levels and items), and "Battle 6" is a small area with no escape, players start at level 20 and have 10 lives.
Note: Extra battle notes added by Castelak
