"Shame on you Nintendo!"

I have heard from a reliable source that the GameCube's release date may be put back until sometime next September. If my calculations are correct, that means that the X-Box will have a whole half year head start, and the PS2 will be TWO YEARS ahead. To be honest, the PS2 hasn't done much games-wise yet(forgive me, GT3, GTA3 and SSX fans), and the X-Box won't have much support in Japan, this doesn't matter too much, but it is still a fair way off, and with games like MGS2 and Max Payne in the console pipeline, it seems as if Nintendo will lose the next-gen console battle. What are your thoughts on this piece of news?

They're trying to open the boxes from the factory.

Yeh, I see what you mean, but if that is true, why did Nintendo announce the 'Dolphin'(the old Game Cube) about the same time the PS2 was announced? Plus the 'Next-Next-Gen' ones will be about 2 years away.

perhaps they are waiting for the next, next gen?
