LOL. That, THAT!! It's a big sack of bricks, it crashes and is endorsed by Bill Gates. Everyone will love it because it is by Microsoft- but they won't be able to produce the games! It crashes godammit and you have to pay twice the price of a Gamecube for it- and for what, a console big black and ugly that has a DVD player!?

Are you sure about that? Apparently, we're getting bigger games than the US and Japanese versions (not sure whether that's true or not). And the fact that we got the Game Boy Advance just 10 days after the US of A did, I'm sure Nintendo really have forgotten about us and left us behind.

New sentances start with capital letters, and usually there is only one space between words. And yes, the plumbers are still around. But they wouldn't be if they weren't successful games!

That's just like saying a Discman isn't very good because you can't play cassettes on it! The GameCube is the only Games Console left in the market. The other two are considered as Multipurpose Entertainment Devices.

Again, sentances start with capital letters. The games are "pants" are they? Considering a lot of them are direct ports from the Playstation 2 and X-box, I think you're mistaken. I've heard nothing but good comments about games like Luigi's Mansion, Rogue Leader, Super Monkey Ball, and many others, and even Thumb Bandits gave them decent reviews! (which makes a change)

We're not American, and again, look at your punctuation and grammar! It's Terrible! I could also use the excuse that I've played both the PS2 and the X-box. Both I found the controllers terrible, and the only game I've had the pleasure of playing was Amped, which wasn't the most exciting game they could have stuck in the console for us to preview was it.

I am 16, and it's true I can't afford an X-box. I payed £1400 on a new PC just before Christmas, and I am currently unemployed and in 6th form working to get a decent future, so I don't have an income and cannot afford to pay another £300 on a console alone!

People *cough* djboogie *cough* obviously have only one opinion and can't see why other people should make their own.. People like them have their own little perfect world that is spoiled by people like us who form our own opinions and hate people like them. Can you say, LOSER!

ok lets pick apart your weak argument...

>the games are STILL childish and for little kids!

You having seen their gamecube line up then? I dont see what is childish about Eternal Darkness, Metroid Prime, Animal Leader and for that matter Pikmin.

>they STILL have bloody italian plumbers!!

Why change a winning formula...Mario platform games are among the most fun games to play.

>they STILL are intent on their own format not a widely >used one! ( N64 cart, big mistake, GAMECUBE not dvd, big >mistake)

Admittedly they should have moved to a cd format for the N64, but as for the gamecube format being a mistake... a) Its a cut down DVD. Nice and small compact size. Nintendo WON'T be hit by piracy, unlike Sony and Microsoft. The game industry is apparently losing like $1 billion per year due to piracy...how much is Nintendo losing? none.

>price is good, but then, if the games are pants!! who ?>cares!

What gamecube games have you played?

>I hate nintendo, do what sega did! STOP MAKING CONSOLES!!!

Aha! The truth comes out. Its all about hatred. You sad git. Its a GAMES CONSOLE. Calm down and grow up poindextor.

>the xbox is incredible, I have one , Ive tried all of >them, PS2, XBOX, GAMECUBE,

Glad you're happy with your choice. Now let us get on with ours. I personally can't stand the XBox and I own a ps2 and a cube. I couldn't give a damn if you like the XBox.

>who ever thinks otherwise is either a 14 year old puffy >jacket, or cant afford one!

I work in london and wear a suit. I have spent over £700 on my Imported Gamecube since December 1st so I obviously can afford an Xbox. At the end of the day I chose games that I enjoy over games that I think look crap. The only XBox games that appeal to me now or in the near future are Halo, Jet Set Radio Future and Project EGO. Ive gone through the rest of the planned releases and ... guess what? Couldn't find any!

So go away you irritating git.
