The gamecube was first released in japan sometime late last year and had been a huge success with the line up of games,internet compatible(in the future) and how small it was which means u could take it round to your mates house or play it in the car with either the 5 inch LCD Game screen or the Joytech 5.6 inch colour Monitor,Both of these costing around £100. Now that the Gamecube has been released over here there has been a lot more english people quing up on may the thrid to get their cube.And now 3and half months later the gamecube has already out sold the Playstaion 2 in the first couple of months and looks to be the best.
The Future:
Well in the future we will hopfully get the internet modem( which is the bit under the gamecube) up and running in 2005 and alot more game are still come.EG; Final fantasy, Starfox, The Matrix, Die hard and hopfully for this Christmas Perfect Dark Zero. With all these games for the nintendo gamecube no wonder it is selling lots of copies. You know it not just the games which has impressed me its the controller,it easily fit into your hands and u get used to it staright away. As some of u may already know that the wavebird controller uses RF technology which is far better than infra red which explains how nintendo have gone for a more futureristic look. The only problem with the wavebird is the colour Grey. Hopfully they will bring out more coulours in the future. I also like the way nintendo have mad so you can plug ur GBA into the Cube and play with it on certain games, hopfully they will bring out more games that uses the GBA because at the moment the only game out is Sonic the hedgehog.
Magazines:
At the moment there are so many magzines out about the cube. In the future i hope that there will be Demo discs that come with some magazines. The demo discs are playable in shops such as GAME and HMV but lets hope we can play the discs in our own comfort of our home soon.
WELL DONE NINTENDO ONCE AGAIN FOR A BRILLIANT CONSOLE!

k a bit of the subject but there is 3 slots under th cube now so far ive only heard of the broadband and 56k modems (which go in serial port 1)
and ive heard of a connection to join gamecube together (serial port 2 maybe it looks like it) but what is the high speed port for.
and how come there is 3 holes in the back one for power one for tv and another one what does it do?

I hope the include a demo soon :) I really want some hands on action instead of wacthing video clips. I don't think they will be doing a demo for a little while though :( I hope they do eventually, but there's always the option of renting games out.
NGC is by far the best!
The cube has more than 2 magazines it has: NOM,NGC,Cube,Gforce,Gamepro and elctronic gaming all have bit of the gamecube in.(gamepro and electronic gaming are magazines that have about all consoles
When you were mentioning all the games you forgot Zelda.....................*sniff* how could you :-(

Yep only 2 GC specific mags out so far. NGC and Cube. The GC is not outselling the PS2, we will have to conceed there. The shoulder buttons are clicky because they activate another button when fully depressed and in effect give you 4 shoulder buttons.

Are you sure that gamecube is outselling the PS2, because from what I heard, it certainly isn't. But hey, my sources may be poor. I have to agree that the gamecube controller is very comfortable with its nice ergonomic design; my only complaint being that the shoulder buttons feel too 'clicky' and like some toy.
