I was browsing through the X-Box website when I stumbled up on this picture thingy with the info.
It's all from www.xbox.com

I think Nintendo HAVE GOT to price the Gamcube at $199 to avoid any risk of 'defeat' and I use that term bluntly!

Game - You heard it here first!

The point is, if the console's going to be sub £200, it's gonna fly off the shelves!!! And rightly so, the GameCube is looking ever more exciting by the day, and I think we have the future of gaming is going to be a very, very good place to be. It's all good!

I just hope they put a modem in as standard, a cable modem so we wont have to shell out an extra £100 for one 6 months later!

Xbox is officially $299.99!? So it won't be £400 will it?

I can actually see the two consoles selling very well despite being released at the same time. They're gonna leave the PS2 behind eating Micrendo dust and because the two consoles are significantly different, being aime at different audiences (GameCube to Sonic Team fans) (Xbox to Hitmaker fans) (just kidding), and so healthy sales will happen!!! I don't want to be tied to to paying an obscene amount for a console though, and then have the worry of financing my new modem for the machine, the stand, the insurance, the dust cover and the Official forcefield either. Ok?

So, Microsoft and Nintendo, do us a favour and excel - don't be great, be amazing!!

Let's pray.

Oh, and if Nights 2 is on Gamecube...oh boy, I'm gonna have a good AS level exam result ;)
