Are you all forgetting about the millions of college students who live in dorms that are fully equipped with broadband?Quote:

If Nintendo had gotten Zelda out before Christmas or maybe a Poke'mon game they would have had some serious holiday sellers there, but even still I think GameCube will sell better... just a feeling that's all ;)
Geez... Let me give myself a :bang: for seeing words that weren't there.Quote:

Actually, Xbox has a lot more games than Gamecube.
I hope you GC people won't be crying when the final sales are known, and GC was way behind the pack...
The parents will all be buying gamecubes with Mario and Starfox for the kiddies. And the older crowd will dig RE0 and Metroid Prime. I think this holiday season Nintendo will catch up and then overtake the xbox in NA. They have the franchise names lined up, and MS doesn't. As for Japan, well, Biohazard 0 and Zelda will both sell twice as many copies are there are xbox owners.
Yeah, because we do actually OWN Nintendo. :cool:Quote:

To speak the truth, I'd like to see all of them do really well so that all of us gamers would benefit from even better software intended to win us over in an old-school, 16-bit style, knock down drag out mudslinging console apocalypse. The industry is at an all time high in terms of dollars generated, interest and notoriety. My opinion is that there's still room for five major platforms (PC and GBA being included) despite the alleged state of the economy. There's never been a better time to be a gamer.Quote:
