Sky digital teletext has confirmed what everyone thought Nintendo's days are numbered, and that with platformers like Jax and Daxter, Sly Racoon and Ratchet and Clank have left Nintendo sacred ground well and truely trod on.

Ratchet and Clank has moved the goal posts in terms of platform games and left Mario Rainyday in its shadow.

It would appear the once king of platformers is just to long in the tooth don't take my word for it the general trend of decreased GC sales and the fact it is now firmly 3rd in the Next Gen war only goes to prove this point.

Resident Evil has hardly been a raving success and neither has Mario Sunshine only managed 1 or 2 weeks at the top.

With games like The Getaway, GTA Vice City and Ratchet and Clank Nintendo can no longer claim to have the best games then again you could say that was obvious to everyone but Ninty fanboys for a long time.

Hmmm, nah. Someone invited me into a convo with him, and then left. So I talked to him a bit. Now he's gone. I'll have to wait til he decides to talk to me again.

nice to see some healthy grown up console discussion by Top score, oh sorry was I being too obviously ironic/sarcastic (can't decide which) there :)
(anyway I thought they were the sexbox, greystation poo and the gaycube lol)
