Nintendo Declares GCN Most Popular Console Ever

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the they-musta-made-a-ton-of-the-things dept.

PhReaKyDMoNKeY writes "According to IGNCube, Nintendo has declared GCN the fastest selling console ever. Additionally, Nintendo claims that Luigi's Mansion is the most popular launch title in history as well. I couldn't seem to find the actual press release, but here's a related news story from Nintendo's site. I don't know how valid the claim is, since it's in their best interest to exaggerate, clearly, but it seems like the console demand in general is pretty high. " Now mind you every store in town seems to have plenty of Gamecubes in stock, but if you want an X-Box, you have to kill for it. Fortunately most people in a video game store are like 12, so I can destroy them with my mind bullets.

    Nintendo's success is good, considering that their longtime competitor was destroyed by Sony. Good thing they have a monopoly in portable game systems to help them out, too.

    Of course, they could be lying.

    Taco would prefer you shoot him with sperm bullets. In the face, if possible.

    Thank our lord Jesus Christ that John Ashcroft is monitoring the internet and can detect secret terrorist weapons such as 'mind bullets' in the hands of dangerous terrorists like 'Commander Taco'.

    That's right skiddies, help us figure out who he is and get an S-Visa.
