Also, keeping on the GC would allow the N5 time to devellop - it's special features could be available from day one, rather than years into release.
It showed that almost all of the Gamecube launch games had been rushed somewhat.
What I mean is come next year... RE4 is released... the gaming market is doing well... By summer (or september) 2005 Nintendo cut the price of the Cube to £50-60... the console literally leaps off the shelves... then come March 2006 (lets say) they launch the N5... Nintendo's brand name has risen... sales rise.

It isn't what '...' means but it is what I use it for... the best writers make punctuation mean different things to fit their style of writing.
I will continue to use ... because I love it so.

That's how they'll have to do it now, but leaving the Gamecube budget for 2 years WITHOUT an N5 on the horizon would've made it a must have for gamers everywhere, because it would be cheap, but not dead or obselete.
But yeah, they can still make good with the Gamecube as an N5 advert.
