Imagine if Nintendo went all out with Gamecube and even sell it at a loss back then. They could have made a 60 watt beast that could dish out 40 GFLOPS... o_O Nintendo could really pull that off... If they did and if they integrated DVD and broadband back then... It would have completely destroy the competition but hey if Nintendo knew back then what would happen with Gamecube then they would have gone all out. But we cant complain... It is what it is... We all can speculate... What if that or that... |
I'm pretty sure the Cube was $200 or 250 when it launched. They removed 480p support to get the price down in the later models. The gamecube did have a modem. The only game I can think of that used it was Phantasy Star Online though. There was a limited edition Gamecube made by Panasonic that played DVDs.
