Nintendo's problem for me right now is that they keep making Zelda, which I have never liked, and Metroid games while not making proper Mario sequels. Why can I get Mario baseball but not a decent follow-up to Mario 64?

When your console can barely pump out 5 quality titles a year. You have a problem.

I'd settle for a graphical update of mario 64 with 100 new stars on the GC. The DS version = too crappy to play with the controls.
I doubt Mario 128 will ever come out for the GC, unless it's a swan song for the system. I'd love to see it though.
I think the N-Gage will be number one.
A WINNER IS NOKIA!
This generation will definatley be more balanced.
That being said though, probably not, unless Microsoft goes the EgAy route and just starts outright buying the parties they need away from Sony.
Why is it every time I see people talking about the next generation, its treated that the PS3 will be the most powerful system is a given?
This is Sony were talking about folks, we have yet to see shit from a real PS3 let alone whatever mock-up hardware they try to make us believe will be the ps3. Do we so quickly forget the little linux cluster they had running to "simulate" the eventual system which came no where near it? Don't remember the claims that the PS2's graphics were going to be so amazing it would lay waste to PC gaming? How about my favorite "Jack into the matrix" claims?
Then the product shipped, and what we got was a system that could barely outperform the dreamcast until coders really started coding to the metal nearly 3-4 years after its release?
The next round will be about games folks, no if ands or butts about it. Whatever console can swing GTA exclusivity, have a couple of good in-house exclusives, and as long as EA publishes games for it, will win teh war...
Yeah I just read that now, and have to agree with Wildkat here. Unless Sony by some miracle, releases A) a product that no longer stops working forever when you nudge it with you toe... and...B) A set of awesome custom designed hardware (yeah I know the PS2 could so some need tricks, but thats not my point what follows is, and its in CAPS) with a WELL DESIGNED MIDDLEWARE SOLUTION for developers that aren't Square and EA, and don't wanna spend 2 years learning how to recode in PS3 language.
