"GameCube is reasonably priced (but its games wont be)"
um, could i possibly ask where you got this information, seeing as how nintendo has barely released any public information about anything GCN related, especially the price of the games.
i personally am worried that if microsoft pulls the microsoft stunt(one trick pony), which is enter a market and blindly dominate it, that puts them in a position of not having to deal with compitition. and with any monopoly(e.x. windows) comes stagnantation of the product and possibly of the entire videogame market. if microsoft comes into town, sony and nintendo go bankrupt, and microsoft is the sole console maker, we might not see a new console in 8-10 years(i can see microsoft justifiying it now, "but the xbox is so powerful")
exactly. another great example is the recent shortcomings of the agenda vr3. while microsoft(key darth vader music) said they would have some program where anybody could make xbox games, indrema prog hopefuls could actually making games whereas xbox garage developers would probably have to pay 97.5% of their games earnings to bill(key music again). hopefully they will release the code, it would be really helpful to people who want to learn how to make games.
