I am not necessarily agreeing with what is being said, but the point is that it needs to be voiced: should Nintendo stick to handhelds? I am a Nintendo supporter, as well as a Sony and (cringe) Microsoft supporter (but only for the Xbox. Otherwise I am a fervent Mac user). Therefore, I hope you will believe that I am not simply Nintendo-bashing. Having said that, I think quite a few will agree that the GameCube was disappointing, to say the least. However, Nintendo have struck gold with all of their handhelds, ranging from the original GameBoy to the DS.

Do you agree that Nintendo should stop hurting themselves. Unfortunately, I believe that Nintendo can't keep up in the console race, so why not turn all their attention to smashing the competition in the handheld field?

The problem with this thread is that it now portays me as the antagonist, trying to insult Nintendo or something. This is not what I'm getting at.

Once again we move into the realm of weak personal attacks.

All right, all right. I'll 'repent'. I just didn't realise how dangerous it was to voice a viewpoint on this forum.

Give me an example of my 'picked-apart' arguments.

AJ is pointing out the fact that it's ridiculously easy- too easy, in fact, to pick apart your 'arguments'.

I completely agree, it's one of my favourite games of all time.

I absolutley adore Yoshi's Island. It's definitely one of my favourite SNES, if not all-time games.
