ok, first 1 thing. i do not mean to offend nin(i)tendo fans,that i would do in the xbox forum.
Right, my theory is that nintendo will eventually go bust because a) the gamecubes the only console without broadband b)they have now lost rare c)there gamecube is losing out to other consoles and d)there just lost tons of cash(see news). Now, first time i relized this, i jumped with joy. then i came to relize that if nin(i)tendo go bust there will be no handheld companies left. handheld consoles are as we all know are very fun, in the car plane, home(if its a decent game), so what to do? well the only other still functional handheld company is SEGA. now, put aside the fact that i am a SEGA fan, and think how a gamegear 2 sounds. now get all the games you can with the beutiful SEGA logo on it. Panzer dragoon orta, super monker ball advance, headhunter or sonic battle, depending on what console you have. then sega may consider a handheld console, prehaps even a gamegear 2....

The gamecube doesn;t yet have broadband as there is not wide enough demand. There are alot of people who are unable to get broadband. If you knew anything you would know that the GC has some expansion slots on the bottom. One of em for a 56k modem and one for a broadband modem.
b)they have now lost
> rare
And?? Ok rare were good but they are not the only brilliant developer out there. Do not forget nintendo themselves.
c)there gamecube is losing out to other consoles
??? how is it losing out? yes mabey to the PS2 which has been around for an age and have GTA games. But with each game nintendo release (the classic ones) GC sales shoot up.
d)there

£100 mil is NOTHING. Since mario was first created in 1981 he has made $10,000,000,000. The money from the rare sale can easily pay that fine.

The BG controls 99% of the handheld market in the USA. Will probly be the same in europe and mabey a bit less in japan. Nintendo are making ALOT of money from the GB.
well the only other still functional handheld company

Nintendos handheld domination is unlikly to ever fade. Sega are doing well as a 2nd party developer. *shrugs*

a) all three consoles have online plans, the only one of which believes that the plans will win or lose the console is Microsoft's XBOX.
b) they have SOLD Rare, for a ton of cash.
c) GC is being outsold by the PS2 alone, but is still selling in respectable numbers itself. Certainly, enough to build a worthwhile user base.
d) this is largely offset (see point b), and besides which, Nintendo have a HUGE amount of yen handy for just such occaisions.
Nintendo are in no danger of going bust.
Christ, their shares go for £66 EACH!!
