Mario and Zelda on PS2 as strange as that sounds their could be more truth in it than you think.

Nintendo have been told by some heavyweight financial advisers that they should develop software for other platforms or face financial ruin.

It would appear that the poor GC sales are starting to bite with developers getting increasingly worried about the GC continued poor performance and the lack of software sold because of this.

Producing for Xbox and inparticular PS2 would add a much bigger user base up instead of the limited one they have now makes sense to me. If Nintendo was able to make more money from software they might be able to produce more quality titles rather than the tripe they do at the moment, hell it might even help Nintendo to sell more GC.

Funnily enough, Nintendo made more profit last year than Sony's or Microsoft's Gaming division, 7 billion, roughly, so, stop talking from your behind hole.

Nintendo's chairman stated the day Nintendo stop producing consoles and start developing for other platforms, is the day Nintendo bows out of games altogether.

Or words to that effect.

So dream on, Top Score.

This is getting really irritating now. You are shaming us PS2 owners by your ill-mouthed and totally obvious remarks of fanboyism.

I am not like him, I have a life.

OLD NEWS you should have a look a www.cube-europe.com (unless you allready got it from there) and then look at the OTHER article about Nintendo which is in direct contrast to the utter drivel from "yahoo news" which you are refering to and is subsequently more closer to the truth, honestly, you just can't leave Nintendo alone for a second can you TS?

Nintendo make more profit than Sony and Microsoft in the games industry, so I suggest you stop with this absolute crap that comes spewing out of your mouth day after day.

I second that, and may i suggest that TS uses one of his "beloved" as he calls it controllers to fill that oversized gaping hole of immortal follishness.
