Has anyone else felt a little let down by this years releases. Last year we had huge games such as Zelda, Metroid Prime and F-Zero GX but there has been nothing that has really got me excited this year. I don't even want to commit to the new Metroid game yet because the last one was such a challenge. Nintendo has been totally outdone in the new releases department this year, what with huge releases for the PS2 such as GTA San Andreas and Burnout 3. And lets not forget the XBOX with Halo 2. Nintendo needs to get its act together and release something for people over the age of 7 if it wishes to stay up there with Sony and Microsoft.

What the hell are you on about?
This has been a fantastic year for GC.

Well Metroid Prime 2 is my game of the year, and Pikmin 2 is pretty close behind. You forget Madden, my dear forgetful friend, as well as Tales, Paper Mario 2 and the sublime Donkey Konga.
There have been quite a few decent games for the GC this year.
Certianly no less than the PS2 or Xbox, I struggle to find anything on those two and my GC collection hasn't grown as much as I was expecting to either.

Paper Mario 2 is great! Plus Tales of Symphonia looks cool (getting it for crimbo)
Yeh I agree. There was nothing at all this year on the Cube that was really any good. The Cube is a dead duck, as much as it pains me to say it. It just isn't selling. Whatever you may think. But as we all know thats Nintendo's fault re advertising etc (dont get me started).
Until someone at Nintendo really takes the reigns with advertising and image i'm afraid it wont be too long before they go the way of Sega and become game producers and publishers only! Nintendo consoles will beocme a thing of the past. Yes I know the games are superb but that hasn't helped sales has it?!
