NVM, WanWan. But, for some reason, a whole bunch of people like all these violent games. I guess people think murduring, robbing and all that other junk is cool. But they should look at what its done to innocent people. Espicially if some of that stuff has happened to their families. Anyway, that article is well.. kinda true. I mean, GC hasn't made alot of impact. I think Nintendo should go back to what they did with N64. I mean, N64 had all those Duke Nukem games and all that other crappy violence junk. We still loved Nintendo even when they did all that junk, right? I think I speak for all of us when I say, Yes we still did love Nintendo even when they made all those violent games! That's probaly why N64 was so popular. The point of the matter is that GC wasn't as succesful as the other 2. Now we all say we hate those bloody, violent games. So why don't we hate N64? We didn't play those games but we still played the others, see? I know Xbox has a whole bunch of violent games, but I play the ones that aren't so violent. A game like MechAssault aren't exactly violent. All there is are explosions and lasers, thats really it. If Nintendo goes back to that with the N5[or GC] then I won't play those games, I'll play the ones I want to play. I mean, when we play N64, we're not forced to play Duke Nukem or anything else like that. We play what we want to play.

Nintendo owns you.

"I guess people think murduring, robbing and all that other junk is cool."

I don't think it's a matter of that, really; people just think that PLAYING at murder and theft is cool. I understand that you're not trying to tie violent video games to actual corruption but I also feel there's a difference between thinking murder is "cool," even within your own head, and enjoying video games where you murder people.

I mean, real-life cars or racing of any kind bore the hell out of me (is "hell" considered swearing on these boards?) but I still love all the Mario Kart and Diddy Kong Racing games, heh. The video game world has nothing to do with the real world, at least not once you reach a certain maturity level and assuming you've had a halfway decent upbringing.

He ain't the only one Trainman!

Yes, WanWan. H*** is considered a cuss on the forums. You can say heck, though.

Well, WanWan, it depends on how you use it. But, nobody has really used it before so that will be up to mods.

All saying words like that will get you is a soapy clean mouth. If you haven't, read the most resent mailbag to see what I mean.

Not the soap! You'll never take me alive, Sapphira! *hides in hole*

Isn't it weird how everyone responds to articles that are to other people? Like this one is CC telling Extremely Biased Article that he is mad.

It depends on what moderator sees it. I, for one (Am I even a moderator anymore?) don't care, and have used "hell" as emphasis in my posts. Sapphira, now, is very offended by language like that, something I pass off as nothing.

Anyways, I didn't think Nintendo was marketing the GameCube very well. I mean, until I saw the #1 article, I though Nintendo was marketing itself too childishly and also, by seemingly stalling the online capabilities, makes "serious" (By serious, I mean haughty FPSers and sports fanatics) gamers turn away. Guess Nintendo is doing more right than I thought.

Although I will say that Time's presentation of that article was flawed at best and absolute tripe at worst. I expected impartial judgement from such an esteemed and highly regarded publication, but no, I get biased crap. Just makes my abhorrence for the media that much stronger.

(Battle Hymn of the Republic starts playing in the background)
Fellow Nintendo fans. Nintendo has always been there for us. Together we've been through the best of times. We've been through the worst of times. Others have tried to take Nintendo's place on the market, but Nintendo will always have its place in our hearts. So now I say, if we stand together, and fight for what is right, Nintendo... will always be... the VICTOR!!!!!

Amen.

Well, now that I've written such a majestic and heart throbbing speech. I say we all stop arguing and go and play some Nintendo.

(please say the following in the best Darth Vader voice you can) Mario.... I am....your biggest fan!
