Today I decided I was going to buy a GameCube, simply for Mario Kart 2/Mario Golf/the new Rogue Squadron game (you can keep the crappy Mario Sunshine and Wind Waker) when they come out. I'm also considering getting an X-Box for Halo 2.

I spent a fair bit o' cash on my PS2, and while SmackDown SYM and Tony Hawk's 4 are great, it's nothing more than an overpriced DVD player for me. And not a very good one at that. I only own two games, those mentioned and the un-godly pile of stinking horse manure that is Metal Gear Solid 2. I don't want any more games for it, compared to the increasing list I want for the Cube and Box. This sucks. Gotta spend a few hundred on consoles just because I went for the PS2 (against my own judgement) all those months ago.

PS2 is the worst, and MGS2 has way too much FMV for my liking. Hence, I don't like it.

NOt to say the PS2 is rubbish...well it is, but some of the games on it are fairly good.

Yes, it's scared it might get the fattening disease the x-box got.

I agree with your second point - the games are totally different - but not counting games because they're on a handheld system doesn't make any difference to the order of games. Mario Kart: Double Dash or whatever it is called, is the forth in the series.

I don't count GBA games. The same way I don't think sales for games should have the GBA versions included, since they are obviously NOT the same game. Tony Hawk's on the GBA is the same as the other versions in name alone.
