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 .

You're not talking to me are you, RiCkOsS?

I'm a big GC fan...and, yes, TS2 is one of the finest GC games I've had the pleasure of playing...

Shut your hole you sad cretin.

All you do is make countless topics about bad the GameCube is, but surely if the PS2 was as good as you say it is, you'd be playing it instead of making pointless topics.

Also, you say Mario and StarFox are disappoints? Well, yes, I think Mario is, I haven't played StarFox yet but I'm sure you haven't played either, plus, why quote those titles? Eternal Darkness and TimeSplitters2 are the two best games on the GameCube yet in my opinion. Just because they're the 'Mascot-Games', doesn't mean they're the consoles best.

Even though I'm a newbie, I think Top Score is a childish offensive idiot.

*polishes his sharp hunting knife with a glint in his eye*

It's people like that who spoil it for everone else.

*plunges knife through Top Score's feeble heart and pushes it in to the hilt*

Well, I certainly fell better now!

*pulls out knife with the still beating heart on it and holds it aloft with an expression of frenzied glee in his eyes!*

Did it mean anything to you? I must have been 7 or 8, but it didn't mean much to me. Not how like you mean, I think.

Anyway, I digress, the point of this thread is to pound Top Score's newbie face yaAAAAAaAaaAaAaaaaaaAAAHhhh!!11243

It just seemed to turn into some type of cussing match. Which is no bad thing if there was something decent to argue about...

I was waiting for you to say that. Too long.

You're getting slow in your...er, old...age?
