Video Game Chat / Re: Gamecube's Dying

I'll agree with you to some extent, there - the Cube's been surprisingly well-received over here. But I must admit I've never heard any of those positive comments you mentioned, or any comments to that effect.
The GameCube isn't dying. Nintendo are making their money, and it's popular enough. It just happens that the PlayStation 2 is more "fashionable". And, I'm sure you lot can all agree that what's fashionable isn't necessarily what’s quality.
Now I've finished stating the blindingly obvious, I'll sit in some... I don’t know... Custard.

Does it matter whether or not the PS2 dies or not, I wonder? Only the fact of the matter is, Nintendo are still making pots of money (particularly as they've got the two consoles), and they're not looking like they're going to go out of business any time soon. Personally, as long as Nintendo keep getting their barrelfuls of cash, I couldn't care less if Sony made enough money to buy a huge, commemorative golden moustache for all of their employees.
I'm new here by the way, folks. So don't throw eggs at me just yet.

So why not share your thoughts on the recently-announced Game Boy Advance add on (You know - the one that you slot game-cards into to play that game)... After all, $5* games can't be bad...
What makes this qualifiy for the General Mario Chat? Well, the fact that it'll have a conversion of DK Jr. available for it, of course...
Personally, I'm looking forward to it, and I'm hoping it'll make it to this side of the Atlantic.

*Yeah, that's what? About £3.
