   Would hate to see the game cube go away. Performance is pretty much equivalent to the PS2 and X-Box and has a much better controller than both. I won't even mention that it's cheaper. Now if it just had a killer app.

   "They might be better off ditching the GameCube completely, and just focusing on handheld gaming. They have a huge advantage there, with the only competition coming from new players who are unestablished in the field."
   
   What? Why? Nintendo are still running second world wide, they are still selling their consoles at a profit (whereas MS are losing $100 on each console sold, not to mention that they give away 3-4 games with each bundle)
   
   How long do you think it will be before both Sony and MS, not to mention various phone companies, have their own hand helds? True, some of these may not suceed, but it's not wise to put all of your eggs in one basket.
   
   Lastly, have you heard of the E-Reader and GameCube player? Nintendo think are an important part of their future, and I agree. They make the GameCube and GBA work together as one, to both enhance games and play GBA games on your TV. Soon they will be launching a bundle deal, GBA with GameCube.
   
   Nintendo are launching fantastic games in the next few months, and they are working hard to ensure quality third part support. They have secured many new games from Capcom, along with the Resident Evil series, a new and exclusive Metal Gear and Eclipse from Konami, the vastly popular Harvest Moon series, Chrystal Chronicals (final fantasy) from Square. F-Zero, Too Human, Starfox, Rogue Leader 3, Ikaruga, Giftopia, Eternal Darkness 2, and so on and so on....
   
   In my opinon, it is the console to own at this point in time.

   Long live the cube! Nintendo without a doubt provides the most entertaining 'exclusive' games hands down and it would be a loss if they were no longer involved in the console market. Games like Eternal Darkness, Animal Crossing, the Resident Evil series, and don't forget Zelda!
   
   I just bought a PS2 after 2+ years of resistance. I had to break down and buy it specifically to play Vice City, I could not resist any longer! That has been the only game I've bought on PS2 though, while I've owned as many as 10 game cube games at one time.
