Ok.

Micorsoft announce Xbox price drop on friday, compensating us early buyers with free games at a joypad.

Ninties run around screaming:

"Xbox has failed! Hahahahaha! Goo-goo ga-ga".

Nintendo announce GC price drop BEFORE the bloody thing has even been released.

Ninties run around screaming:

"GC is the best! We get it cheaper! Hahahaha! Goo-goo ga-ga".


Now, am I the only one that thinks that's a bit stupid? Xbox price comes down because it made good business sense.

GC was the cheapest console anyway, why reduce the price?

Could it be that Nintendo realise that the Xbox is a threat? Sony have already said that they may have to release the PS3 earlier as the Xbox is s***-hot.

I put it to you that Nintendo are scared crapless of the Xbox price drop.

On friday, you could have bought a console just as powerful (if not lsightly more) than the GC, with a top quality DVD player, for only £40 more than the price of the GC.

So they dropped the price. Because they're scared.

Goo goo ga ga.

Funny how the only people that seem really concerned about this are the new PS2 to Xbox converts.

Worried that you may have jumped ship too soon?
