I've been reading through a load of issues of N64 Mag and other stuff and my own knmowledge of GameCube to make up a list of GameCubes bad points.

1. It's purple. T.V's are always black or silver. Not a nice combination.

2. The infrared controller without a wire, the one they call Wavebird is great to use, untilyour dog goes and sits right in front of the console!

3. It's too small. What do I fill the gap in my cabinet with?

4. err.....

5. hmmm...

Buy a controller with a wire.

I doubt the GC will fail as miserably as the N64 did.

anyway, in japan the Gamecube is only going to released in one color, purple. And it looks as though it will only be available in purple for the US launch. No idea about the UK launch colors though.

they are probably keeping the launch color just to purple so they can introduce extra colors later in the GCs life to boost sales.

Because he talks bollards and his mouth is filthier than a New York sewer on International Curry Day.

And strafex, I can thing of at least 10 good reasons why the GameCube is bad but it's too late at the moment. I might tomorrow.
