Last week the XBox overtook the Cube in sales in GB. Now there are (only) 3000 more XBoxes around than Cubes. This is due to the excellent offer the XBox has (2 games for free).

Nintendo have to cut prices and/0r add a free killer game, like they did with the Mario/Goldeneye N64s.

They have to do it before Christmas, or else they'll take a pounding.

Microsoft was losing a hell of alot of money with the last price cuts on the xbox, now they'll lose even more! Basically, their aim is to get a big fanbase, and then make money back on software sales, which is a pretty goos stratergy. In order to compete, GC must be lowered, sure Ninty will lose money, but more people will have a GC, meaning more software sales. Hopefully.

Well, you can blame me for adding 1 more to the sales of X-boxes soon, c'mon this offer is just too good to refuse.

Even if the x-box has overtaken cube in sales why the hell will nintendo fail? as long as the billions of GC and GBA owners keep buying games nintendo will be fine.

Pish. Not everyone can afford to just give relativly new games away for free with their consoles.

Theres no question about it you know, eventually Microsoft WILL rule the games industry. In business money will do everything.
