Well, the rumours have been scattered throughout our e-mails, and now, it looks as if these rumours could become a reality.
Think of the headlines:"NINTENDO DITCH GAMECUBE!"
Actually, come to think of it, it wouldn't be much of a headline, would it? I mean, IF they do decide to call for the abortion on their new console, it would be yesterdays news as far as we're concerned wouldn't it?
Anyway, the question remains, what would Nintendo do if they did infact ditch the Gamecube?

-Would they start to develop a new console? -NO, it appears that most, if not all consumers have lost fate in the former king of developers.

-How about continue to support the N64 with not-so-great titles?-NO, the fact is, the N64 is into its latter years now, and it will be soon time to send it to the peaceful place in the sky.

Fine, then, What are Nintendo to do?
Well, what they should really do, is follow Segas lead and forget about consoles, and do what they do best, and that is create quality games for the PS2 and X-Box.

Nintendo, don't waste your time, BURY THE GAMECUBE!
Move to the dark side......

Do you honestly believe that with all the time and money that Nintendo have put into the gamecube they would ditch it now.

There are alot of rumours going around saying that they will ditch it but in my opinion i think that it a load of rubbish.
