If you’ve clicked on this topic you’re either hyped up with nintendo smells, sony rule etc, or your just a ninty reading more of my defensive posts but read on.


Nintendo are Rare, Take away their games and your left with nothing, Nintendo have lacked third party support since the SNES and the Gamecube's no different.
If you’re a fan of Miyamoto's titles then obviously you'll buy the next console but if you don’t follow Zelda or are actually at an age when you can vote what’s left?
Nintendo owners still deny that the N64 is for children even though it’s drowning in Pokemon games, Kiddie Platformers, cartoon graphics and even has a bright yellow pikatu on the front :)

I’ve had a long hard look at the gamecube lineup and the new Mario looks great with some real innovative ideas however every Nintendo console has a Mario game but can you remember the last time he got a sequel on the same console??
Eternal Darkness looks reasonable for my liking but doesn’t come close to near future PS2 titles such as Devil may cry and Silent Hill. Nintendo will no doubt keep releasing their usual updates with nicer graphics and cartoon imagery, oh well if they don’t change now they never will.


The PS2 on the other hand offer a completely different set of games and even with some porting to the Xbox they appear well before on the PlayStation 2. The anti analysing problem seemed to be an issue but it’s no where near as bad as people say, In fact I’ve read so much bull on here that when I played red faction I had to remind myself several times what everyone was bickering about, you only have to look at MGS2 or final fantasy X to realise what the console’s capable of.
I’m not making excuses for everything gone wrong for the PS2 I think the large heap of rubbish games out there is laughable but over the next few months the great titles are finally being released, CVX, alone in the dark 4, devil may cry, Jak and Daxter, Tony Hawk 3, SSX tricky, agent under fire, Final Fantasy, Silent hill, Airblade, Need I go on?


Until it’s released the Gamecube remains anything you want it to be and the PS2 is only at war with itself but even though it’s taken a while to find it’s feet it deserves far more respect for the games to come and it’s growing game library.
The only people I’ve heard complain about the PS2 are Digitiser, ninty’s and dumbbells who go off what they hear. As far as I know PS2 owners are quite happy but let down by the time it’s taken for the good titles to arrive, They're almost here though :)

Ninty's write topic after topic about why Gamecube will win, why nintendo are the best, and you know what? I’ve given up talking sense into brainwashed kiddies, I say let them have their kirby, pokemon and colourful worlds and leave them be :)

Bring it on twisted metal black.

Surely that would be an evolution, not a degeneration?

Well, soon you will start to degenerate into a man with the intelligence and understanding of a 4 year old.

I've been called many things, but none has ever cut so deeply as that.

Wookie's a Ninty, big Pokemon loving girls blouse that he is. Absolutely no respect for Sony, going and stabbing them in the back like that,this is a war, not an entertainment industry.

I've long been sick of console wars.

Check the Ninty forum and there's practically a new one every day!

You don't get many in this forum, or the others - but those that appear outside of the Ninty forum are invariably started *by* Ninty's trying to provoke some response.

All it proves to me is that *most* Ninty's really are young, immature kids/teenagers who have grown up on Nintendo kiddy-fodder and are scared of change. At the same time they are obsessed with 'image', and so attack the machine with the best 'image' - which used to be Sega, but at the moment is Sony.

They feel a need to own the 'best' machine so that their mates don't laugh at them, but they're scared of trying something new (Sega/Sony), and so spend their every waking moment trying to convince themselves and everyone around them that Nintendo is best. They're also angry that their favourite got slightly 'stuffed' in what they consider 'the last round' and are hoping that it won't happen again.

If they manage to provoke an angry response, they find it amusing. But that will stop when they do it in real life and someone having a bad day turns around and smacks them on the nose.

Of course there are some 'Notable' exceptions, but in general the posts on the Nintendo forum tend to prove the point beyond anything I could say here.

Though I do intend to get a Gamecube at some point, my biggest fear about buying it is that I may be classed as one of 'them'.
