We gather here today, to celebrate the short-life of the unpopular gaming console the N64. Seemingly trampled all over by new consoles such as sony and microsofts, the nintendo was pushed into the gutter to live a life with ludicrously over priced games and daft controlers to share it's cardboard box with.
Taking it's throne is the GameCube which is also just been pushed onto the kerb by rapidly advancing consoles, not having enough time to compete with blocky graphics and poor titles.
So let us pray, to our heaven above that Nintendo shall never hold a frightening reign over the gaming world and focus on the smaller things in life such as the ever-loved but deteriorating gameboy advance.
Ahmen.

Hoped you liked the service by the way, brought to you by the famous stallion.

I'll admit the N64 is dead, but the cointroller was fine and the games were excellent, so you can't deny its quality. GameCube is also a class console, with anything but block graphics and good games. It has already sold millions, so I doubt its going to its grave just yet. BTW have you actually played one? Be honest.

go to www.sega-europe.com and check out the Super Monkey Ball ingame screenshots.

I don't know where you got the "Blocky graphics" from, but the GameCube aint got them!

It has been said that the GameCube is the best machine out of the PS2, X-box and GC because it is designed primarily for games, and according to one of the developers who's mentioned stuff on Nintendo's new domain www.gamecube.com, the Gamecube is easy to port PS2 games straight to it. Thus meaning if the PS2 games doesn;t have blocky graphics, then the GC version wont.

Play on a GameCube before you judge it like this.

btw: Someone else has already posted a topic about the N64 being dead already today!
