"The Gamecube IS a toy because..."

...it says so in the manual!

Numerous references to it as "the toy".

:-)

Only noticed it last night while reading my manual.

After playing Rogue leader for a while today, mashing away at those buttons my right index finger does hurt a bit...

perhaps a bit too much pressure on those shoulder buttons...

Is the GC controller the most comfortable out of the 3 as that is what i have heard but i think that it must be pretty comfortable to beat the PS2 i mean i know it's better than the XBOX controller Ninty could have released an Argos Catalog as a controller and it still would have been more comfortable than the XBOX controller.

So if its not labelled as a toy its no fun ? Ooooooook. I'm personally enjoying both consoles. Even with the GC around, I still find plenty of time to play on my X-Box. Halo is a game I keep going back to cause the excellent AI makes the game feel different everytime. Same story of course, but different situations in the levels thanks to the enemies reacting differently.

...and toys are meant to be fun. Nintendo re-enforces their committment to fun. Whereas the Xbox doesn't call itself a toy - result = no fun.

Ya, I've held a GC controller, and I must say that it's bloody small, and it feels like something that I'd give to a 3-year-old...not that that's a bad thing or anything.

Then again, I could always use it for a toy in...erm...other ways...for my girlfriend ;D

Maybe playing the X-Box in my nearest SR so much has just convert me to an Xy (no, not a mathematical equation :D)

Females are dangerous playthings.

Why ? You trying to say you put things other than games and leads into your GC ?

Just asking... are females toys?

The XBox says its 'the future of gaming' - I think thats a lie so Nintendo lied about it being a 'toy'. It just makes easier reading for you on the bog.

Toy - State of the Art Console.

Future of gaming - trying to hard.
