Lamecube DOA??

So i finally get a new game for the cube and I finally get two seconds where the baby isn't crying (she took a nap hooray!). So i busted the new game out, Ultimate Spiderman. I play for maybe two seconds when the screen goes black and a this shows up"An Error has occured Turn off power and check Nintendo gamecube booklet for further instructions." I was like, "Aw crap!" So i check the booklet, "See nintendo.com for trouble shooting tips. So I check the site and it could be a number of things. My memory card could be dead or at least not functional with this game for some reason (its a generic brand), the game is jacked up and faulty (possible since I played the other day my car game and it worked fine), or my cube just died.

You can have it repaired for 65 bucks but whats the point. I'll fiddle around with it but who knows. Maybe a Wii is in my future. Man if this breaks then I'm up a creek with only a gameboy SP to do me. My computer is on the fritz as far as games go. Civ 3 runs and games from the mid 90s run but nothing made with modern technology or a Pentium P3 chip or greater.

I've thought about cashing in all my games and systems and going to the PSP but the games on it are sparse at least the ones that are good. Field Commander being a new one that looks good but other than that not much. Oh well. I had a good run of video gaming. Oh the memories
