I guess SH is okay, Id give it a seven. I don't really have anything against Nintendo, except that I feel cheated by them. The N64 was awesome, theyve produced the best consoles and the best games, and now come round the new console generation, all they could think up was the frikkin Gamecube? I mean c'mon! Its a frikkin cube! Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if they could back it up with a nice big library of games, but no, not only do they have infact a very small variety of games, but their aren't very many good ones exclusively for the system. So theres my beef with nintento.

I think people saw that Sony was just a better console. The thing was, Gamecube tapped into another group of consumers, parents who didnt know anything about games or gaming with their kids who hardly knew about any gaming name aside from Maria, browsed around, saw Gamecube to be more "child friendly", which in fact it is, and then saw 100 bucks to seal the deal. I mean cmon, those cheapasses at XBox and Sony hardly price dropped at all. We expected at least down to 140-130 on a brand new system, Nintendo took down 80 bucks or so, and it worked out. I congradulate them for that in making a good marketing move.

The thing is, the much younger audience that Gamecube caters to can't really tell much of a difference between games, unless its REALLY crappy. Theyll have fun with just about anything, so the thing with Gamecube and its limited amount of good games doesnt really harm them. Which would cause one to wonder, has this ability to keep up without producing good games like Sony and Microsoft made Nintendo purposely not try harder to bring a good variety of games? I should hope not, it would really hurt to know that Nintendo would sell out there most diehard fans to something like that.

shut up fanboy, Sony only has this lead because they released their console 2 years earlier than the cube and the xbox. with no competition Sony sold shitloads of ps2's. you could actually compare it with the GBA and with the PSP being launched soon... the GBA has a GIGANTOMOUS lead, just because nintendo had a monopoly position for 3 years straight...
