Why are Wii and Gamecube bundled? I hated the Wii but the Gamecube is my all time favorite. What am I supposed to vote for! God damn, I can't make decisions like this! |
Sadly the thing limits me to 10 options in the poll so I had to either combine one with another or eliminate one (I didn't want to do that) so I combined the two most similar. Wii/Gamecube are virtually the same hardware and games looked (except for some later games and some other exceptions) the same on both consoles. Also, Gamecube controllers worked on Wii and so did the games. Basically, the Wii was the Gamecube with slightly better hardware and a Wii remote. The other consoles weren't that similar to each other in my opinion.

At the time though, the Gamecube was very powerful, had a great controller, got the best third party support for a Nintendo console since the SNES, and had amazing Core offerings from Nintendo.
The Wii was underpowered for it's time, had a godawful controller, got no meaningful third party support, and had pretty weak offereings from nintendo.
I know to the outside viewer they seam similar, but in terms of philosophy, and they experience you were getting, they couldn't be less similar.
