The Gamecube had better core third party support than the Wii has had so far. Almost every major third party multiplatform game of that gen, except for GTA, appeared on Gamecube.

And how did the Gamecube work out for Nintendo cheif? Massive sales? Brilliant 3rd party support? No complaining whingers I take it you never owned a Gamecube.

I own a Gamecube and a Gameboy Player. And there's more to life than massive sales like having a good game library. The Gamecube has over 190 green rated games at Metacritic. So far, the Wii has less than 150, less than half the number that are on 360, and almost 100 less than PS3.

Metacritic is lopsidedly weighted towards the industry media. Wii has more worthwhile games on the Virtual Console alone than GC does in it's entire library.
