Yeah. Planned for the Gamecube and then brought over to the Wii. Yeah ok. And I don't care if it is in the Wiki also. Don't know if you're aware of it, but companies like Nintendo are always busy with different projects in different stages. This always happens. 

Nintendo supported the Gamecube way better in it's final days than they did the N64.

Anyways I just don't like the point you're making, and you're using very, very flimsy facts to back it up. They did not abandon fully in development Gamecube games and then ported them to Wii.

I mean, "Yoshi platformer (Moved to Nintendo DS as Yoshi Touch & Go)" , like that would've been possible at all if the game was actually up and running on the Cube.

Come on man.

You could argue that Super Paper Mario was a fully developed game that was cancelled.  There's no proof as there was a full version released, but the game was due for release on October 9th, 2006.  If you look at the IGN link I posted of the hands on, it was in June 2006, four months away from the games release date.  Instead, it was released early 2007.  So less than a year to port it over to the Wii.  I'd say that it's very easy to argue that it was finished on the Gamecube or very near being finished.  Even if they had some minor work to do to complete it, it was still playable and then moved over to the Wii.

Nintendo basically said, fuck you Gamecube owners.  We're dropping all support and moving over to the Wii.

I over-reacted unnecessarily. It happens sometimes. I apologize.

It's because of Mario Galaxy. That's all. And because I can't stand blaspheme against the gamecube.

peace brah
