Imagine if one console with Microsofts Specs, Nintendo's Controllers and Sony's friendly attitude towards 3rd party developers were to be released. Could you imagine if Zelda, Final fantasy and Shenmue stood side by side. Joanna Dark shaking hands with Lara croft and Mario and Sonic going down the pub together for a friendly drink rather than a bar room brawl.
If there was one console the public would love it. No arguments with their friends everyone would experience great games from all the companys. The quality of games will be forced up and prices will fall. The console could also be upgraded rather than replaced much like a PC and the profits will be split equaly by the 3 (or 4) companys.
The thought of Playing Syphon filter, Sonic, Mario, Shenmue, Zelda, Grand Turismo, Pokemon, Perfect Dark, Final fantasy and House of the Dead all together without having to dish £100+ for an extra console each time is a thrilling prospect.
Here's to the Future.

definitely (hope that's spelt right!) Sonintendoft! Hoiw about the Sonic Game cube (What yugi naka propossed as the name of the DC years ago.... odd how it became the name of nintendo's console!)

It is very comfortable, and the z button is great. However the L button is never used, and the c buttons seem pointless.
I'm a bit worried about the c stick mind... but I'm not even sure the Gamecube controller is the finished one after all.
