Although many Nintendo games have a cartoony appearence that may attract younger gamers, the games themselves offer quite a challenge. They appeal to all ages. I'm 23, I love the look of Nintendo's games. I play games to escape from reality once in a while, and I think that these games offer a great place to escape to. Do you honestly know many 5 year olds that have gathered all 120 stars in Mario64, without help from a guide? Or that has actually collected all 150 Pokemon on the Gameboy games?
These games offer a large challenge.
If you don't like this type of game, then there's always the Perfect Dark style games.
You are free to have you're own opinion on this, but at least dismiss it with some proper argument. Otherwise I'll just get bored.
The Gamecube itself is officially at the moment priced at £150 and the DVD Gamecube at £250 Both of them cheaper than the Playstation 2! The new disk format is bringing the price of games down! The only reason N64 games were expensive was because they were still on carts.
The official date so far for the Gamecubes UK release is Christmas 2001! That's just over a year!
At least Nintendo haven't done any "third World" sorry "Third place" adverts with a duck and some mutilated bloke!
how much of a market lead will sony get in this time.

The PS2, I am quite convinced, will fail. Not even being cool will save it now.
You've got a lot to learn kid.
You're judging the PS2 by the PSOnes great reputation, the same way many judged the Saturn by the Mega Drives great reputation...
