I will buy any Nintendo console so long as they don't make it ridiculous like the GameCube.


Man you alwasy hate on the cube. I think it was the best Ninty console besides maybe SNES. Why you hate it? Just because it was purple?

 

 

Also, Zelda HD better be fu**ing good. We've had 4 consecutive terrible Zelda's (SS,TP,ST,PH) it's time to go all out.

The purple lunchbox thing just made it embarassing to look at. It was mostly because it was a dumbed down Playstation 2 with a broken controller, rather than an innovative Nintendo console.

Every Nintendo console has revolutionized the industry in some way.

NES - consoles all have D-pads on their controllersbecause of it.
SNES - consoles all use the diamond facebutton configuration and shoulder buttons on their controllers because of it.
N64 - consoles all use analog stick controls because of it.
Wii - consoles all have motion controls because ot it.

Gamecube didn't add a thing. In fact, it's controller was a big step backwards. It's lack of DVD features, and the fact it LOOKED like a childrens lunchbox, was just big kick in the groin.


You say it was a dumbed down PS2, but it was much more powerful than said PS2.

There were other colors, just because purple was their flagship, doesn't mean a mellower silver didn't exist. 

Wii didn't have DVD features. You love that.

How was the controller broken? It's one of the most comfortable controllers of all time, and it's button placement was innovative and unique. It is IMO superior to 4 button diamond placement. It worked really well for a lot of games.

In the end, it also had more good games than the Wii.

I don't understand your logic.
