The Playstation 2 has only had a year headstart, not 2.

And anyway, most of the people are waiting for it to go down in price.

In February it'll still be pricy than the New Gamecube.
This new product will be accompanied by lots of hype and advertising campaigns.

This time, Adult games will be available from launch meaning that it won't be shunned as a childrens toy by the public.

They might choose it, they might not.

It can still go either way.

My friend owned an original Playstation which he bought second hand from a friend in the not too distant past.

About a month later he sold it.

He has an N64, over 30 games, lots of peripherals for it, a Game Boy Advance with 2 GBA games and quite a few GBC games, a Mega Drive with loads of games, etc.

He is waiting for GameCube aswell as playing on his new Game Boy Advance.

Playstation 2 isn't the only new console out there!

This topic was motivated by the WWF invasion thing right?

Of course the GC will be the biggest threat but the PS2 have had a 2 year head start and everyone that owns a PSone isn't likely to wait for the GC to be launched.

I think Nintendo have learnt from their previous mistakes enough to know that GameCube will be the biggest threat to the Playstation 2.

> come out before you say the GC is 'better,' which it may

from what the magazines and the press and preety much every sane person in the games industry is saying i think u can gurantee that the gamecube is gonna be better than the playstation 2, okay fair enough i havent played any of the games but the fact is that nintendo rules E3 people were shocked at the sheer quality of the games being produced by nintendo and with shigeru miyamoto and rare creating games for it, it just aint gonna fail

How is that the truth?? It hasn't even been released yet!

Wait for it to come out before you say the GC is 'better,' which it may be for some but not for me.

This is as specs don't matter-it's the games. The games on PS2 appeal to me, where as the ones on the GC don't. It's down to taste.
