it was a and still is a state of the art console. Notice how Sony and Microsoft are trying to catch up to Nintendo, while Nintendo isn't trying to catch up to anyone?
Anyways, back to the point of 3rd parties. Yes, while there were more than 1 reason to abandon the GC, there have been plenty of reasons to abandon the HD systems. But it wasn't really my point to get into an argument over if they should abandon them or not. The point was that 3rd parties refusing to properly support the #1 console has helped the PS3 survive as long as it has. Had Sony not got so lucky they may have ended up with 22m sales just like the GC.
