Eh, DoA Volleyball is a great game. I've got no problem with it selling.

The fact that Orta, a shooter, made by Sega, is actually on that chart, is a miracle in itself dude!

Yes, number 20 and 25, of which only one is a Nintendo title, is saving Nintendo's ass.

I'm talking about console sales.

Nintendo is my favorite and indeed, I can admit, they've been raped. The problem stems from their lack of effort in marketing, price warfare and market tactics (i.e. packing-in software).

It is very interesting, however, to see that Nintendo's pack-in ratio is quickly catching up to Microsoft's. I predict that when all is said and done, Nintendo's pack-in ratio will be the best of the two.

GBA being so successful has obviously bailed Nintendo out for many years now... but as much as it helps Nintendo's bottom line it does nothing useful for the Gamnecube owner, which seemed to be the point. The Cube is falling behind of late and that can't be good for Nintendo/Nintendo fans.

Well I am big Nintendo fan and I am quite happy. No other system has more upcoming games I am interested in then the Game Cube. They just are sprinkled over the next year. Granted they almost are all Nintendo made games. But yeah GB/GBA has saved Nintendo, and made them so much money that they don't really need amazing Game Cube sales. Oh well.

The N64 made Nintendo tons of money. Even without the gameboy, they were the biggest publisher in the world for that generation.

yup. when there are zero third party games for the cube they'll still rake in the dough. why? because most of their games sell 1m or more copies. something selling poorly is .. what .. 500k?
