Atari Drops GameCube Support For Two Titles

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the nintendo-unfazed dept.

dade writes "Atari has dumped on Nintendo, making it the third company to do so in recent weeks. However, because the GameCube is a vehicle for first-party games, Nintendo's bottom line isn't affected. This article at switchbox asks if such a situation can last." Some good points are raised. While Nintendo is ostensibly content to hide in its niche market, it would seem to make sense that it would want to corner more of the gaming market if possible, especially given their history.

    Oh, yeah, and they both have 4 controller ports, too! I forgot that one. So I guess you're right -- because of some coincidences, they're the same. Flawless logic.

    And the power cord -- can't forget that. They both have power cords. Gee, I guess I just didn't see all of these parallels before.
