GameCube Update

I'll buy anything Nintendo does.

Well, anything except for a First Person Shooter Metroid.

People like hi-c sit around, bitch and moan. Never once will they lift their "pens" to sit and write for an e-zine. The only reason I wrote about the whole 'riling' up explanation was because it made sense to me. It gave readers another viewpoint. It may have flaws, and it may not make sense, but it's my opinion.

Honestly, hi-c, mr. i-know-it-all, do you actually think that Yamauchi would cancel the GameCube project after the millions, even billions thats been poured into it? I highly doubt it.

Get a clue there, mister. You don't work at a Nintendo website, nor do you follow their day-to-day activities. When people like you complain, I normally don't respond because you don't know what you're talking about. It's like that jackass who wrote that Nintendo was going down in flames from Forbes: http://cube.ign.com/news/33194.html

if you don't follow it, don't talk about it as if you know every last detail. because you don't.

Without putting much of my opinion into it, let's just say that Yamauchi is most probably saying this in order to stir up, or begin to rile up the attention of news writers around the globe, and honestly, he's doing a darn good job at it.


I couldn't believe the stupidity of this analysis. Then I saw the source: it's an IGN site. LOL. ("This kind of content can't stay free forever!")

No business ever intentionally tries to "rile up" the market for effect by suggesting that it's bowing out or won't ship as promised.

It's tempting to attribute Nintendo's stagefright to the Japanese economy, which is in tatters. But our own is going that way, too, Greenspan's panicky rate cut yesterday just another sign. It's looking like whoever does release their console this year is in for some deep, deep losses.

I hear the sound of a flushing toilet. Maybe Nintendo should go the way of Sega and make software. I'd much rather play Metroid or Mario on my PS2 or my PC. You won't catch me buying this thing, this thing is doomed out of the gates.

DAMMIT, I really hope the GameCube does well... I really want Nintendo to survive 8^(

I like this one, From all the images we've seen of GameCube it's mostly just younger audience target games with the exception of a few. Keep in mind though a ton of games will be announced next month at E3 and we'll have a much more clear picture of what is going on. Should be fun to see Nintendo and Microsoft fighting for the console market.
, I smell a cheesy bias.

You Gamers, get you the hot bullets of the Gamecube to die.

100 Gamecubes is on Order!

I tell ya something is up. Nintendo has cancelled big projects before...

if i was sony or microsoft i'd hire thousands of people to attend the show and boo when they show the gamecube thereby eliminating nintendo from the competition...

i got a response from nintendo about my email if they were going to make another star tropics or not.

They said no :(

This does suck though. I really wanted to see GC and PS2 kick the living shit out of the portbox... oh well. I guess Sony may have to do it by themselves.

go look at some of the movies on ign.. that metroid one is damn nice.

1. Its translated from Japanese. He might mean it differently than how you, barbaric forigner, interpret it.

2. It might be a good decision to not release it. If you had to go against PS2 and the XBox and had the sure-fire hit GameBoy Advance, why would you spend all of that money?

Just release it for Japan, see how people/market take to it and re-evaluate.

Gee, Nintendo is paranoid about releasing a system with very few new innovative games being shown for it in the face of tough competition from Song and MS

Big shock there

First they tell retailers not to promote the X Box now unless they get their dicks sucked at E3 they hold off on the gamecube.

Guys, if you hold if off you have to keep redesinging it so it won't become obselete before its own launch

What's this game called? Super Mario NutBusters? http://www.shacknews.com/screens.x/gamecube//1/games/082300_games_1.jpg

my co-worker showed me a shot of some fighting game (tough man or something) yesterday
it looked very impressive.

Let's judge the book by its cover! Come on, everybody!

YAY A GREAT CONSOLE to play at 640x480 on some pixelated television.

dum de dum i got nuked :/

This is pretty worrying news to hear a company consider canceling a multimillion dollar project just based on the response from E3, things cant be going to well over at camp nintendo...

and sony.

steve, make sure you get naked playing gamecube games and say 'THIS THING IS HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!'

GameCube guts balls
