It's basically about an announcement from the new Nintendo president Satoru Iwata saying that the GameCube could be the last console we ever see from the Big N - just like how SEGA ended their console history with the Dreamcast of '99.
This can't be happening!! Things will never be the same again!!
Like I said in my 'Wihtout SEGA' topic, the Gaming World would've never been as good without SEGA - and the same applies if there was no Nintendo!
Many SEGA fans are sad to see SEGA finally call it a day on console developments, and it's possible that we could be feeling the same in just over 5 years time!
But hey, it's only a 'possibillity', and nothing's definite, nor has it been confirmed or annonced by anyone at Nintendo.
And even if they do 'do a SEGA', at least we'll still have those superb and imaginitive pieces of innovations to enjoy - even if they are on alien-like formats.
Just think how SEGA fans feel now... that could be us!
But hey, at least we still have the Cube and it's future games, the GBA, and many Nintendo games of the past to enjoy - into the future!
What would happen to Rare???
Would Nintendo sell-up on them so they could go to SONY, Microsoft, or whoever else is envloved then???
So much to talk about, so many things that Shigsy and co. have done for us ALL! What's your view on the possible matter??
No-one can live forever and Shigsy isn't exactly 'sweet 16' anymore.
All good things have to come to an end sometime. :(
Let's enjoy them while their console are still here!
What do you think about the possibillities of seeing Mario and Zelda on the PS4 or Microsoft Z Crate??? :S
thats gotta hurt!!
I too see it as a rather 'daft' suggestion (to say the least) that the GameCube will be Nintendo's last console!
I agree with what Tiltawhirl said, they won't be trying to make it look and sound really powerfull and impressive like the X-box, and that they'll just make a fairly basic Games-ONLY Machine with the latest specs and features - kinda like what the GameCube is now.
And i'm sure the GameBoy series will still be going strong within the next 10 years at least!
I don't see Nintendo suddenly abbandoning the Handheld Market suddenly!
After all, they are the only real competitors there!
