Will a Nintendo home console ever reign on top again?

I think its hilarious that you use the Gamecube as an example for failure. The Gamecube actually was fantastic for its time, extremely aggressive in terms of specs (far superior to the PS2), fantastic controller, great game library (well Nintendo IP wise, obviously since the N64 era it was difficult with the 3rd parties). the only weakness it truly had was the fact that the disks were mini to combat pirating and becase of that hard to design for and resulting in 3rd parties continued reluctance to work with Nintendo

there was nothing that was 'fixed' from the Gamecube to Wii, they are extremely polar oppisites in terms of both there objective in the gaming world, their design, there risk factor. 

Going back to a Gamecube-esque system would be intelligent, obviously this time they would just need to adopt the standard disk format and avoid in any extremely awkward complications that come with strange controls and system design

What else could you classify the gamecube as ? A success ? (You'd just hear maniacal laughter from me if I heard that.) 

Nothing was exactly wrong about the console itself. There is an aspect that the WII fixed compared to gamecube and that's having the better games ...

@Bold They already did and it's called the WII U but I'm not so sure that's intelligent seeing how the market is condemning it ... It's controller is a lot more closer to the GC than the WII ...
