Sorry to stop you...

I'm conducting a poll thing. Just a few questions.

1) How old are you?

2) What was the first console you owned?

3) Have you ever owned a Nintendo console?

4) Do you think that Nintendo is a childish company?

Simple few word answers, doesn't take long. Ta. :D

I LIKE CARTOONY GRAPHICS

*ahem*

Sorry, but I can't see why those kind of graphics and games can't co-exist with others. Mario Kart 64 was my favorite game before Goldeneye, and I don't care whether it's got cartoony graphics, that's the beauty of it in fact!

Sega are supposed to be working with nintendo on an RPG for the cube.

I think alot of people think the N64 had cartoony graphics. Hopefully the Gamecube wont have the same effect.

Hopefully, if they can have some more 'adult' (and i dont mean anything funny by that) titles available for launch, the 'Cube will get the recognition it deserves.

Also, with Sega bringing some quality titles as well it will be a big help too.

However, at the moment the only Sega title i know of for the 'Cube is Crazy Taxi (which seems to be going everywhere!). I do think that there will be a big announcement at E3 though.

All the profit is probably going to develop the 'Cube and to encourage 3rd party developers to sign up as well.

Yeah but Nintendo still seem to make loads of money from Pokemon. Where all the profit going?

Yes... but the thing is, the childish image is stopping sales, therefore stopping Nintendo from making more money, and therefore giving me less games.

Gits. All of you. ;0)

ssxpro, the only thing I don't particularly understand is how you can call Zelda childish... it's much like calling Indiana Jones childish.

Does it matter if the games appear 'childish'? Don't we all get in childish moods every now and again?

Sometimes i want to mess about and burst my mates balloons on MarioKart, sometimes i like to be serious and race around london in MSR.

If you enjoy the game, whats the problem?
