If we considered profits alone, The Gamecube alone has been more profitable then Sony's entire gaming division since it's launch with PS1.

I'm still trying to figure out what your point is...

End of the day, the Gamecube may have helped with profits, but this still doesn't change the fact that it lost to the Xbox AND the PS2 handily, last gen.

What?  "Handily"?  I thought it was pretty close...

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

How can you spin the numbers like that? They obviously were in third.

Xbox was the winner at moving the most consoles, but more importantly Gamecube finished with a profit. The video game industry is business like every other, its all about money. So Nintendo was the winner in my eyes.

I don't know what is worse the OP was serious or the fact this topic is up to 5 pages.

In that case, the 360 will be 3rd this generation, and the PS3 will be fourth.

The Game Cube was Nintendo's second biggest disaster. The number one disaster is Virtual Boy.

The Gamecube was great. It had a strong library with a lot of variety. The exact opposite of the N64.

Whoa there buddy, that's highly subjective. I must STRONGLY disagree, as I think the 64 had some of Nintendo's GREATEST games that ever graced a console.


Well now you're being subjective. The N64 had a few solid titles, but I prefer the variety of the Gamecube.

"I must strongly disagree" already implied subjectivity


You disagree it had more variety? Because it did! It had Sonic!
