It always annoys me when someone says that "Nintendo is all crap kiddies games."
It's obvious that they're a bit dim.
One of the worst things is that they got it for a GOOD reason. They got it for making good games.
Let me explain:
The Playstation has just as many if not more childish immature games than the gamecube.
But Nintendo still has the reputation. Why?
Well, the PS ones are pretty rubbish. They're designed for kids and kids only and are more often than not cheap spin offs from TV cartoons.
There have been a couple of decent platformers say Crash or Spyro but nothing particularly special.
Nintendo's platformers on the other hand are exceptional. They're so playable, skillful, simple and fun that everyone who plays them loves them.
Because of this they get as much magazine and TV coverage as the red certificate games.
People see all these cartoony characters related to N64 and immediately think "This console is for kids. We've grown out of those sorts of games!"
In reality, Nintendo has less cartoony games than the playstation and compare a Nintendo "kiddie" game to a PS one.
The Nintendo one is more challenging, playable, skillful, fun and original.
It's not that the N64 has more cartoony games, it's just the only console where they're good enough to be noticed.

I think that machines should have a balance.
A good mix of all types of games is healthy.
The Gamecube is the only one with this balance.
The rest are too adult orientated.
Adult games are good too but a balance is neccessary.

Umm... and Eternal Darkness. That looks good.
I totally agree with you Strafex (I'm out of stupid mode now). Long live Nintendo and all it's kiddie games!
