Before any of you Nintendo fans rush out and get one, I should highlight this report from another site

http://www.easytobait.com

As most Nintendo fans are of a similar age and ability, the main question concerning Gamecube customers is this:

How are they going to be able to figure out how to open the box?
And once that task has been mastered, there then comes the problem of putting all the wires in correctly.

I think the gamecube is poorly designed. It dosn't seem to catch your eye like the PS2 or the x-box. The gamecube isn't even a cube it is 6inches by 6 inches by 4.3 inches(compact) so should they be allowed to call it a cube?

I thing the Nintendo Gamecube is excellently designed because the new smaller discs mean that you can't pirate them and it's light, compact and can connect to the Nintendo Gameboy Advance with a special wire and it may even have internet compatibility. Who says it's poorly designed.

at least the gamecube dosn't look like a radiator with flashy light (PS2) and a radioactive core (XBOX) and most importantly dosn't play like a greased Mclaeran F1 6.1 trying to take a 156.57 hairpin turn.

Yeah - and it also is very very small - so you won't really have to look at it anyway - Why is the X-Box so big?
