Surely I'm not the only person who thinks the BBC is overly biased against the Gamecube?

Not only does it's pathetic PS2-centered games pages on teletext produce mountains of Sony propaganda every week, it's posted yet another article about how Nintendo are apparently in trouble and the Cube is failing on the day that Nintendo releases sales figures that put them in second place worldwide in the 'console war'.

There's no real point in putting an article up about it, it's not real news.. just some badly informed quotes from an "American marketing executive".

Search on BBC News for Nintendo and there are plenty of stories about how the Cube is failing. Example: news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/3049609.stm
