Xbox: 733 Mhz Gamecube: 485 Mhz PS2: 294 Mhz Dreamcast: 200 Mhz As one poster as already said, though, Nintendo did lose a lot of money on the gamecube because everybody else was playing PS2 or Xbox. So instead of spending billions on a powerful console, they made a cheap console with almost the same graphics as gamecube and named it the Wii, and targeted it towards the casual. And what do you know? 50 million units sold in 2 1/2 years versus 32 million lifetime for the 64 and 24 million lifetime for the gamecube. |
PLEASE STOP FAILING.
Nintendo made a profit off the GameCube, which is why the kept making the system. On top of that, they were selling GBA SPs like hotcakes and making a shitload off of Pokemon titles. Everyone acts as if Nintendo was on the edge of dropping out of gaming, which isn't true.
