People are either looking at the situation with rose colored glasses, or their hate for Wii now just causes them to say something insane..besides Wii is backwards compatible lol. |
I more or less thought of Gamecube as Playstation Jr. The system was much more like a children's PS2 than a true Nintendo system. Besides, considering the patents that Nintendo was filing during the N64 era for motion controls, I think that the Gamecube was more or less a filler system.
I agree with your post completely. I suspect a lot of these people who are praising Gamecube and bashing Wii are mostly just upset Xbox fans pretending to be ex-Nintendo fans.
