On the 18th April 2002 Microsoft announced their price cut and the console would go down £100 from £299 to £199 which would take effect from the following friday April 26th. Do you remember the posts from all of the ninties in this forum, if not here are some examples, " its only becuase it is not selling well ", " its like Bill Gates admitting defeat ", this was only a few comments but as you know there was a lot more than this.
Last night I recieved an e-mail confirming that the GameCube is coming down in price! LOL! YE THATS RIGHT PEOPLE IT IS COMING DOWN IN PRICE! Could this be Nintendo admitting defeat, are they failing! LOL, take it Nintendo fan boys, TAKE IT!
Not only this but... Microsoft with the X-Box corner at E3 have been given the award for most exciting games coming out this year! LOL, face it and don't come out with a load of rubbish about Nintendo and Mario becuase you bore me beyond taking a breath. Nintendo can not challenge Microsoft and nore can Sony. Sony have a better chance but the GC is an N64.2 and is destined for failure just as the N64 did.
The release callendar on X-Box is better and has been slated as the most promising console at E3 this year. With all the games on show the X-Box corner took center stage! Even the early releases have been slated as the best games ever and that is only after a couple of months here in the UK. It has already taken games into the next century with Halo, RalliSport Challenge, DOA3 and PGR and trust me there is loads more to come!
Before you start I do have an N64 with 3 games, well I did till I sold it last month for £30 with 3 games, steering wheel, memory card and rumble pack! LOL, poor guy that bought it thats all I can say. X-Box is number 1 and "this town ain't big enough for the 3 of em" so Nintendo need to book a train out of town before we all book it for them! As "THE ROCK" himself would say " KNOW YOUR ROLE AND SHUT YOUR MOUTH " and this applies to all Nintendo fanboys, " IF YOU SMELL............. WHAT GARBE123 IS... COOKING!

IF, and it's a big IF (that's why it's in capitals) the 'Cube does come down in price, I *may* get one. But it would need to drop to £99.99 for me to consider getting one.

Don't be silly Garbe, you know Nintendo aren't failing - their doing it because they love everyone. Nintendo are desperate to show everyone how much they love us by giving us a good price and make the competition soil themselves.
Ok, now the bull**** reason has been put aside before a Ninty comes in here and says it I'd like to say that there definatly is an irony in this news isn't there. ;-)
In a way, I dunno bout the rest of you, but i'm feeling pretty damn good about myself. I've been saying that the X-Box is an excellent console and time and again I've talked about the massive potential it has along with the great games line up. Now E3 has basically backed up everything I have said. ;-))
I know fanboy's all too well though. Expect a lot of "LALALALALA I Can't hear you ! LALALALALA" while they have their fingers in their ears. Any that know about this news right now will no doubt be pacing up and down the room thinking of positive excuses for Nintendo's move which no doubt we'll have whined at us soon. Bless em.
