Usually when someone starts talking about they're actually just revealing they're a delusional fanboy.

If system sellers actually existed the Gamecube would have been on top last gen since it had some of the best games of last gen.

True, the rare game does exist that actually does something significant, but for the most part system sellers don't really exist and just a tool fanboys use for arguing what game is or is going to be the best.

So what do you say to the explosion of the DS after Nintendogs and Brain Training??

Also the GameCube didn't have system sellers - name a game that should have been a system seller on gamecube.

 

Resident Evil 4.

 

 

It sold what 1.5 million?, wasn't exclusive and came very late into the GameCube's life

So in short.. No

It's from a relatively huge series, and it was exclusive to begin with, Capcom weren't happy with the sales and ported it, apparently they weren't happy with 2.7 million on the PS2 either, so they ported it to Wii.

The GameCube "failed" because no console with an image, lack of innovation (surprising, for Nintendo), non-DVD with minimal third party support could beat the PS2's quality or the Xbox's near unlimited funding.
