The latest sales figures do not read good for the Nintendo Gamecube at all.

GC sold 10,000
Xbox sold 21,000

and PS2 sold a staggering 95,000 3 times as may as the other two put together.

Pretty poor reading if you are an Xbox owner, but far worst for Ninty fanboys.

Less than half the amount of Xbox, why is the GC doing so poorly well thats is obvious to everyone except hardened Ninty fanboys.

No dvd people would rather pay a little extra for that function.

GC packages are actually no cheaper than the Xbox or PS2.

Rubbish games line-up that prove the gamer has moved on from
games like Mario. Dont take my word for it look at the figures, Starfox was hardly a resounding success either.

Games are taking far too long to produce (I thought the GC was a sinch to program for), people sick of waiting.

Xbox and PS2 get all the really big titles because they have the bigger, better and industry standard format .

Don't you mean watching the paint dry on your nails.

You're right, mate. Why am I even wasting my time insulting Top Score? I've got more important things to do. Like watching paint dry.

And with that one retort, the argument becomes a landslide victory for Cherry. No, honestly, it really does.

Top Score, you're a fool. Pulling me up on one typo? Read your original post again and learn to put in the correct punctuation and maybe a few full stops and then come back to me to criticise my writing. Until then, GET OUT YOU FREAK!

Oh yeah, learn to spell as well - it's "cinch" NOT "sinch". Imbecile.

This is like the pot calling the kettle black, when the kettle is a slightly off-white spanking new Kenwood.

If people dissected your post to expose the bad grammar and spelling, as well as the nonsensical points you make, we'd be here until Christmas.

Nah, I'm talking to the sad cretin :-)

Seems he hasn't yet found out what 'typo' means :-D
