We all know that Nintendo have released the Game Boy Advance. We all know that Nintendo have the Gamecube almost ready for release. So what do you expect from them?
Many people thought that the nintendo 64 was a huge dissapointment, with many, or far to many 'cute' style games. Yes there were many that would be classed as 'cute'. Though really, were they that bad? or is it a reason for Playsation fans to stab at Nintendo?
On a personal opinion I thught the 64 was a great console, so what I am talking about? Well the future.
The NES and SNES never really had many 'cute' classed games. The N64 did, the Game Cube is expected to have a mixture of both. So why the 64 the odd one out?
Well we can't look back at what Ninty has done, we can only look forward. The GBA advance; released only Friday and I haven't heard a bad report yet. Looks like this little mean machine has a good future. The Gameboy has never really had to many bad reports- it has always been a great idea. It went very downhill at one point, and though I dont want to say it- Pokemon was the saviour. It brought the GBC back to life.
So what we going to see on the GBA- more Pokemon titles, a wider range of RPGs, sports and adventure? I feel this machine has a bright future, as long as Nintendo pay attention to it. Will they though? Or is all concentration going to go to the Game Cube. One can hope not, as not even Pokemon may be able to revive it again. What are your opinions on the future of the GBA?
The Gamecube- plenty of information has been released on this console. We have seen launch titles, video clips and pictures. They have, and many have agreed, plenty of potential. The grahics are looking top notch, the playabilty looks great and the reviews are more compliments to what this machine may be capable of.
So we can agree it looks pretty smart? No matter though, what we think, it's up to Nintendo on how they use it. Will they use it to it's maximum capacity? One would hope so! They may underuse it though, and ruin something that has great potential or will they think far to much of it and make games that are far to big to run, resulting in us buying more memory for it...I can see this happening.
So there are many outcomes of what could happen to the new Ninty machines. They could be the best thing since sliced bread, but lets not get to excited, they could be huge flops, one could be used alot more than the other. Its all up to you now Nintendo, we can see what you have, and what you have is potential to be the best.... how will they use it is what will determine a good or bleak future for the Nintendo consoles.

This is a true point Ortega. Though once the release of the GC, will the GBA be left to go stale on the shelf so lots of concentration can go to the GC? If this were to happen- then the GC may fail and we will all cry:( Will nintendo rely to heavily on the GBA or not? Is that a wise idea?
I can't belive this post got a reception, and even RBS said it was good!!:)

I think the future of nintendo lies with the link-up between GBA and the Gamecube. Take a look at the back of your GBA box. It shows a picture of the Gamecube hooked up to the GBA with the phrase "can be connected directly to the NINTENDO GAMECUBE"
This GBA has sold bucketloads, The succes of gamecube may be swayed by how nintendo market the link-up. They hae the userbase in the GBA to be able to become the no.1 home console player. just depends upon how many people take that transition.
