Well, here is a place where devoted Nintendo fans can concisely voice their views on what Nintnedo should do - realisticly of course, to improve sales, market profile (i.e in FHM, Mace Griffin is not on Cube, and there are no Cube ads, despite an excellent GBA SP one, and it says 'the millions they have lost on Gamecube' about Ninty) and most importantly dispel the ridiculous anti GC attitude.

I mean, Game Boy has a great name, but both the N64 and now the Cube (to a lesser but still worrying amount) are seen as rubbish.

Outline your proposals here. Petition anyone? Meh.....

What the Cube lacks is decent marketing, decent release dates and decent third party exclusives.

So, a three step plan to save the Cube:

1) Advertise. A lot.
2) Six Sigma the absurdly slow release gap between JAP/USA/European release dates
3) Get some serious, non-cartoony, "adult/mature" games that people will buy a Cube for.


It's that simple. If I were a director, I would approve funding for any of these without hesitation.

Just imagine if Sega had decided to do that with the Mastersystem. We'd still have to look at it every day!

Arr that's all there was to it!

Nintendo should just jump in the sack with Microsoft! heh! That's a contriversal comment for this forum ain't it! But just think. If Nintendo designs the machine, and controller. Microsoft fund the inards of the machine. They join forces and kick Sony into the ground! Nintendo can't continue making consoles forever. They keep making too many STUPID mistakes. They just don't seem to have the business sence to make a console successful!
