Grix I hope that's a joke or sarcasm (or both)
We all know that the Gamecube disks can hold nearly as much as a normal DVD disk!
You say that in the future it will be X-Box Vs Playstation2.....I think not, obviously that is a complete bias opinion.....Nintendo have got loads of third party developers returning maybe even Square...Microsoft have got Sega....everyone has suddely sparked a ton of inteest in the X-Box because it is set to have sega games...what a joke, the GBA and Gamecube will as well, load of companies are favouring the GC to the XB, enix and Capcom are just two of them.....Nintendo will have all the playstation types games, Sega type games and X-Box types games bar a few PLUS al the nintendo games, pokemon games, Zelda, DK, Perfect Dark, Too Humnan, Conker, Banjo, Mario...need I go on.....DVD and all that crap doesn't matter, the N64 is faster than the PS2, there are no loading times...nothing....wait util the Gamecube comes out....the Playstation will be Obliterated and Microsoft won't know what has hit them....isn't just a duplo buliding block you know...there is more power in that thing that the PS2, better games will run on it than do on the Ps2, it will have 15 +/- more years experince than the X-Box......YOU MUST HAVE HAD ONE TAP ON THE HEAD TOO MANY MY LAD...because there is nothing to suggest that Nintendo can't pull this off.....Big PS2 user base...Pah who cares Nintendo have done it to Sega before, I don't think the, bad reputation - hard to develop-for, looks like a freakin' radiator PS2 or the Let's all break the bank X-Box will have much of an effect on the success of the Gamecube.
No....Siree
> But the GBA isn't a real console anyway...
No it's not is it....it's just a figment of all our imaginations!
I think you'll find that it's a portable console, so if that's not counted as a console....neither will the PSOne!
I have no use for a GBA, simple as that. It can't offer me better games, better graphics and holds no interest whatsoever for me. It will also signal the demise of the Gameboy in the future, and Nintendo are really pinning a lot of hope on future compatibility between the GBA and the Gamecube to be a major selling feature.
I don't see the point. If I have a console at home, and have no use for a handheld, even if Sega relaunched the Gamegear over here like they have in the US for $29, I wouldn't get one because I have no need for it.
Nintendo are welcome to the title 'King of the Handheld', but as to advancing games themselves and offering great gameplay, Sony still win.
Sony pushed those boundaries, and will

lol!
Even though the GBA has already beaten total sales figures for the PS2 in Japan?
