Dear fellow console users,
I am writing a plea to game console developers to save our pockets! For too long there has been an endless battle between big name developers and for what? So that the ordinary folk have fork over tons of hard earned dosh to buy outragesly overpriced games and consoles. And it is all because they have a big name. For example if you took a Nintendo64 and re-named it 'Farmer Jiles' then there is no way you would be able to sell it for the amount of money that the N64 is sold for. Oh yeah, while I'm on a roll I would like to complain about the rate that new consoles are produced. It seems like only yesterday that my N64 was the coolest thing around and everybody wanted to come to my place and play on it. Now the Playstation 2 and Dolphin are coming and it seems that the N64 popularity is plummeting. I hope that in the future we will see a slower rate of new releases and they will be easier on the pocket. p.s. psx suck!!!

I don't think any one but farmer jiles would buy a console with a crap name like that! you pay for what you get. If you don't want to pay for it don't get it, it's a competetive market it would not be good enough if the only console on the market was a nes! wicked mate, lets go play excite bike! can I play?, no it's one player!
god damn that would be crap! the future lies in expansion!
