So, even Nintendo thinks Wii is a Gamecube in a new suit!

So this leaves me with the question: If Wii has (zero to little) more power than the Gamecube, and the controller is the innovative part (which i digg, don't forget that) why support the Gamecube-controller. Then they just could've stick with the Gamecube... But this time around, we have a good looking Gamecube with online and that's actually selling well! But c'mon Nintendo; If the graphics are the same as last gen and i have to keep playing it with a Gamecube controller i might as well just stick with me old Cube...

1) The Wii is about twice as powerful as the Gamecube.

2) The Gamecube controller is supported to satisfy the waggle haters.

3) The Gamecube is dead, that's why Nintendo isn't anymore making games for it.

4) The graphics aren't the same as last gen.

5) You don't have to play it with a Gamecube controller, the Wiimote is supported as well.

6) This Mario Kart won't be released for the Gamecube.

7) This thread fails, because you haven't done your research before you started a pointless rant.

8) Cake tastes good.

9) Chocolate is even better.

10) I am hungry.

 Neither have you ... as far as I remember there are no official Wii technical specs. so you 2x powerfull point is inexistent from the start ... yes the Wii is more powerfull than the GC ( MP3 , SMG , SSBB prooves this ) but whit how much nobody could tell ... 

 

ign stated it here: http://wii.ign.com/articles/733/733464p7.html - " It is roughly twice as powerful as GameCube."

and again here: http://wii.ign.com/articles/690/690730p1.html

quote "Industry sources have already commented that the Wii GPU would be slightly more powerful than that of the GameCuBe by approximately 2-2.5 times." is here: http://wii.qj.net/Nintendo-Wii-Graphics-It-s-Only-the-Beginning/pg/49/aid/50465

 

also, now you admit that wii is more powerful than gc while earlier you said "zero to little" more powerful...why the change?  nothing on this thread convinced you since you said that it was SMG/MP3/etc that proved it, which you already knew

 can you admit you were being biased and impartial with your OP?
