"A thought about the price drop of Gamecube"

So the games at £40 with a console at £129.

And you're happy paying almost a 3rd of the console cost for each game?
Hmmmm.
That's the equivalent of paying £65 per PS2/Xbox game.

Good on Nintendo for dropping the price. Before it's even launched.
That shows confidence in a product.
Hell, the GBA is more than half the price of a Gamecube.

It's odd though, the Xbox drops it's price and red-faced Ninty's start peeing in their nappies about how that means the Xbox is failing, despite decent sales figures at full price.

But when Nintendo announce they're dropping the price, before it's even launched, that suddenly means that Nintendo aren't worried.
No, that means Microsoft are even more scared?

I'm saying neither, just saying be consistent you big simple 'tards.
hur hur

I save some money, I get a console on which I can play games I like. What's the fuss?

Next topic please.

I wouldn't say the N64 was a flop at all. However, Nintendo have got to hand it to Sony. Whilst the N64 had its success then fizzled out, the PS1 continued to sell. Since the release of the PSone update, the PS1 is still being produced and now appeals to consumers on a lower budget.
