The "Nintendo Games" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
Thats according to the Metro news paper, was flicking through it today when I came across this article:
"PARENTS who have spent hundreds of pounds on the latest games console can relax - the current generation of machines will not be replaced until 2005 at the earliest.
Sony, which makes PlayStation2, has ditched plans for a speedy launch of PlayStation3. It had thought of shortening PlayStation2's life cycle to compete with the high sales of Microsoft's Xbox. But, with worldwide sales of 33million - albeit with a year's head start on its rival - PS2 has outshone Xbox's 3.9million sales.
'At this point, the future on the PS3 is pure speculation, adding,'said a Sony spokesman,adding: 'Five years is a reasonable life cycle'.
Just 4million GameCubes have been sold since last autumn, leading to industry speculation that maker Nintendo could pull out of the games hardware market."

Do you think this is true, well I think its a load of bull!!! I mean the ninty part is, the PS3 is being delayed.

Yeah, I saw that to, seemed like a pretty stupid last comment seeing as a) It's selling better than X-Box and 2) Nintendo have never stated they will stop creating hardware
