    I agree totally in your comments about the GameCube console. Nintendo really never made it over the hump in the post SNES era with the exception of the Gameboy systems.

    The problem with Nintendo is they do NOT listen to their fans and rely on 20+ year old game franchises. If you take a look, their upcoming "must have" games either have Mario or some related Nintendo franchise that has been milked for so long. It is pathetic actually that they are alienating themselves from the market.

    First party games sell well.. but them drop off after a few weeks. Don't get me started on 3rd party games though... they are always the worst sellers out of the PS2, Xbox, and Cube ports.

    Sony and Microsoft clearly killed them this generation. It will be funny how well the "GameCube 2" pans out in 2005 or 2006.
