The thing is purple, that might give you a clue.

Where's the Samba De Amigo? Where's the Online Capabilities? Where's the VMU?

I mean, Sega has made some things that were DC-ish for the GC (all of which I find the DC version pwnz), but the GC just doesn't have the magic that DC does.

It doesn't have that lush diversity of titles and completely awesome line of peripherals and homebrew support backing it. It can't even play CDs for god's sake...

I'm sorry, but DC>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>GC...

Yea I imagine little kids love the Resident Evil games which are exclusive to GC. BMX XXX (as crappy as it was) was also a great childrens game.

About the only kiddy titles I really see on GC is the Pokemon stuff. Even as cartoony as Zelda WW was it was still a game older people enjoyed. In fact when I took it over to my little cousins house to play back when I watched them him and his friend hated the game cause the puzzles was too complex to them.

Just cause a game is rated E doesn't mean it is kiddy.

As far as the GC becoming the DC2, well I don't see where that comes from. Sega has games on all 3 consoles if Im not mistaken.

Nah, I was being an ass by steriotyping the GC. I really don't have much against it besides Nintendo has ruined Mario--but hey, nothing some emo music and a razorblade can't fix...

I mean, to this day I still play/like Poke'mon...

You know, you can bash the Gamecube all you want, but it is still alive commercially, unlike the DC.

Nintendo has been able to keep the GC in the market, despite Sony's Overhyped PS2, again, unlike the DC.

Oh, and remember:

Gay = Happy

gay

adj 1: bright and pleasant; promoting a feeling of cheer; "a cheery hello"; "a gay sunny room"; "a sunny smile" [syn: cheery, sunny]

Maybe some people will hate me for this, but I don't care. Why? It's the truth. If you are too blind to see the truth, well... that's your problem.

I don't think the Gamecube has a sexual orientation to persons of the same sex.

The GC is not even a person. So, what does it likes? Another Gamecubes? A GC having sex with other GC? Thats is sick!

Are we talking the same english?

Because AFAIK, Gender is NOT color.

True. Basic Math.

- * - = +

You have to admit though that Xbox Live PSO Owns GC+BBA PSO. A ton of more people play it. Besides, the Xbox controller is almost the same as the GC one button layout-wise so it feels basicaly the same rather than the GC controller.

Well, how else would we tellt he difference between GC's? They dont exactly have a birth certificate with gender info on there. just play along we me.

How popular is the gamecube? I Think it's not very alive, and it won't be alive for long.

Nintendo has been able to keep the GC in the market (not for long), despite Sony's Overhyped PS2, again, unlike the DC.

The DC is dead but still have more variety of games than the gamecube.

When I go to EB games the system with more variety of games is PS2,second Xbox and third as always gamecube. The PS2 and Xbox have games for all ages. And have different types of games.

The gamecube doesn't have many original Rpg's (I mean RPG's that were not from DC). It only have:
1-Zelda
2-Tales of Symphonia
3-Batten Kaitos

In fighting games; they are difficult to play with that cursed/strange/stupid controller.

I mentioned these 2 types of games because are the ones that I most play.

When a game comes for the 3 systems, the gamecube version get's cheaper first. That have to mean something.

Not necessarily. They seem fine to me.

I haven't played the GC version of sonic heroes, but from what I hear the PS2 was the worst of them all. And the GC one was cheaper... hmm...

Have you even looked at sales figures? We've been over this before

From my experience its Xbox software that devalues quicker than the others.

What do you mean "devalues"? Do you mean price-wise? or do you mean fun-wise? or other? Because if it devalues pricewise, then that is a good thing because we can buy games cheaper, faster.

Has Gamecube become Dreamcast 2?

Has Gamecube become the successor to the Dreamcast?
