Releasing it too early (2005) than the PS3 / Xbox 2 will make it do a Dreamcast. which we do not want.
It should be released a month before, not a year before. But with the delays we get in Europe, it'll probably be around the same time anyway.

They'll call it the Jellyfish.

It would be interesting to see if they wait to sell all of the existing Gamecubes first though before they go into full production. (I heard they've got a whopping 23 left in their warehouse).

I am sure the the Gamecube 2 will not be called "Gamecube 2". Nintendo have a sense of originality!

How can you give a verdict on something you haven't even played?

Yes but you seem to be totally ignoring the Japeanease, American and the rest of Europes sales figures.

With the new cheaper price fro Cube across Europe and a lot of big games releases coming up in the next few weeks, Gamecube sales are gonna do nothing but go up.

Oh and withg the money the get from GBA Nintendo will always be around making consoles.

Yes, I can see Nintendo doing just that.

What is GC2 going to be like (how fast, what media format, etc)?

What is PS3 going to be like (how fast, what media format, etc)?

What is XBox2 going to be like (how fast, what media format, etc)?

There is so little info on them at the moment, you can't really make a decision on which one is best. We can that all 3 new consoles will be out in 2005, although some UK versions may slip to early 2006.

With GC only selling 1,600 units in the UK and PS2 on 15,000 units in the UK last week (Xbox was 5,000), can the GC survive until GC2 is released. With low numbers like that, developers may jump ship and just not bother with GC software.
