well should i?
i love monkey ball, and its not on any other system. plus animal crossing has me uber intrigued. not to mention the possible sonic team stuff. and beach spikers, and mario sunshine.
but should i get one? i mean i also really want an xbox. jsrf, gunvalkyre, hotd3, virtua fighter 4, panzer.
also pso plays a big factor, i mean xbox has voice chat, but gc has new levels and stuff.
i am so confused.
At current stage, I prefer you picking up Xbox for Sega/Tecmo titles......
Gamecube really doesn't have any killer apps at this time unless you love Animal Crossing, Biohazard 0, Starfox, Wario.......etc......
IMHO, the Gamecube is a piece of shit. It was dead before it launched. Go <a href="http://www.actsofgord.com/Proclamations/chapter01.html" target="_blank">Here</a> to get some facts. If you want to buy a dead system, go right ahead. If you can get one cheap enough, it might be worth a few games. I would suggest getting a Xbox though, seeing as how it has more potential.

Um... Fuck off. I don't normally snap at people for their opinions, but you don't deserve to live... <img src="graemlins/ohno.gif" border="0" alt="[Oh No]" />
EDIT: Gamecube is the only TRUE gaming system left on the mainstream market. We should be supporting it fully.

I'm getting the Q also...
You have to get one :D
I never understood the whole concept of not buying a particular system. I mean if it's a financial issue and you want the most for your money...I reccomend to 'normal' people to buy a PS2. It's chances of being around the longest and having the most games to choose from are definately the highest.
But for a 'gamer'? How could you not buy a system if you have the means. Most systems have at least one game that makes the system worth buying. Is the money a PC-FX costs worth playing Battle Heat? Honestly, no. I got one because I had the money and was very interested. I don't regret it slightly. The PC Engine has hundreds of good games...do you think anyone during it's time said 'buy the SNES or the Genesis over the TG-16'? Hell yeah. Everyone thought that except for the people who bought a TG-16, but now...people are re-discovering it for themselves and realizing it has a lot of great games. The same could be said for the Jaguar, the Amiga CD32 and even the Virtual Boy.
As a gamer, I've never encountered a video game system that didn't have at least ONE title that made owning that system worth the while.
So as a gamer I can't understand why someone wouldn't want a GameCube. Miyamoto could easily be argued to be the single greatest mind in the Game Development field. Kojima and Suzuki are both very very good, and could be argued to be the best, but I don't think either of them have the track record Miyamoto does. A lot of people will say 'Suzuki made this and made that' and it sounds impressive, and it is, but Miyamoto's resume doesn't sound impressive because they're games we're so used to hearing about. It's like getting excited over running water. But without running water, life wouldn't be so good. I mean how many times have you heard "Legend of Zelda" and "Super Mario Brothers" in your life? I think we just take him for granted.
With Miyamoto churning out games that a true gamer would appreciate, with Sonic Team, the Resident Evil series and the numerous 2nd and 3rd party titles such as Animal Crossing. I just can't phathom some one saying 'don't buy it'.
It's not like it's a question of "which one should I get?" which would be debatable depending on your tastes but "should I get it at all?".
Ignore everyone who says not to get one. They'll inevitably be one of the following:
-Holier than thou Geek. Everyone who plays games is a geek. The ones that are sad are the ones who think blood and tits and shiny surfaces make good games because it's 'cool'. Good game play makes a good game. You don't like the style? Fine. You refuse to play it because it looks 'kiddie'? You gotta be fucking kidding me.
-Generic System Hater. The person who believes that by putting down another system it makes thier purchase that much better. See the early Jaguar purchasers mad dissing of all other systems.
-The Uninformed. Someone who listens to the other two and really hasn't sat down for a good session of Super Monkey Ball.
I'm super pumped for Animal Crossing and contrary to popular belief....I don't own a GameCube.
Yeah, I don't own one. I've played a lot of the games over friends houses but there hasn't been that one game that made me jump up and buy one, although the tempation was there for a long time.
I'll have one and a copy of Animal Crossing by this weekend.
With Animal Crossing, RE0, Wario World, Cubivore, Doshin The Giant, Super Monkey Ball 2 and Mario Sunshine...plus games already out like Pikmin, Beach Spikers, Soccer Slam and Rogue Leader...and with other games like Mario Party 4, Metroid, Zelda and Mario Kart...
I'd say get one.

Gamecube? A great purchase! Cheap and good, exclusive games. Plus it won't take up much room and looks kind of nice.
Just make sure you STAY AWAY from Super Smash Bros.
Because its a putrid pile of turd!

I disagree with you (but I respect your opinion)
GC have more killer apps than X Box ,Mario sunshine, resident evil .......... , and it's future games are even better ,Zelda ,RE:0/4 ,skies of arcadia ..........
and it's worth the money
that's if you are not able to buy at least 2 games a month but if can afford the money for that (or more) .......... PS2 will be the best choice
[ September 16, 2002: Message edited by: k'_127 ]</p>
anyone have a release date for the platinum one? im gonna get a gcn when prime comes out
I personally would get a Gamecube.
I just recently traded off my X-Box for some AES carts because I didn't have time for it, and two, I just wasn't interested in it anymore. Halo is fun and everything don't get me wrong. There are other good solid titles, but I just found myself getting bored with it quickly.
I'm not a Nintendo fanboy at all, or a Microsoft hater. I do plan on getting an X-Box again when I feel there is better stuff out. But, for my money, the Gamecube is the system to go with. Great set of titles out, just having a Mario game finally out helps. Not to mention all of the must have titles between now and January 1st, 2003. Can't go wrong with Nintendo this time around.
Oh, and on this forum, we are all dorks by default, so don't worry :p
I dont understand why people think gamecube will flop...anyways i have a gamecube and love it! Super Mario sunshine, Monkey ball 1 & 2, Super Smash bros, RE, ED, Luigi's Mansion, Pikmin and more....with Metroid, Mario party 4, Star fox this year and more its going to be a lot of fun. Remember nintendo is keeping it around till around 2006 or so. pick it up!!!!!!!
Get the Q it's Sweetttt, and all your gaming and movie needs are satified Optical digital Goodness,modified to play imports and Dvd region 1-6 "unstoppable" .
Why anyone would say it's a dead console is beyond me. Only a damn fool would say that.
Let's say GCN dies tomorrow, and no games coming out (like Star Fox, Res Evil 0, Zelda, Phantasy Star episode 1+2, Skies of Arcadia, CvsSNK2, Ikaruga, and Metroid Prime) will make it. They've all been canned (even tho my list is about 60% games that are already done, or in Japan)...
The GCN is still a good system to own. I currently am loving the hell out of the following:
Rogue Leader
Resident Evil
Super Smash Bros Melee
Super Mario Sunshine
Animal Crossing
Add to the huge following of Monkey Ball 1 and 2, and those that enjoy the lesser games that are still good such as Pikmin, Wave Race, and Eternal Darkness. Yeah, lesser games, but still they would be thought of as top 5 on the Xbox.
Now, that first list of five are the ones that I think absolutely ROCK. Sure, there's other great games, but those right there are badass. I'm not counting the other games that are on all systems that kick ass such as the two football titles, Tony Hawk 3, and so on (name your favorite etc, like FIFA). So, this is a dead system? You're smoking crack if you think so.
I don't give a dirty damn if you don't want to buy a GCN. Fine, don't (not talking about you, sonic, I'm talking about those that don't like it for whatever stupid reason). But don't be an ass and tell others not to. There's tons of great reasons to buy one! Hell, since I'm a Panasonic Q owner, I get to even play imports and DVDs. It's my favorite "current" system.
Spike
Thanks Blaine, you saved me a lot of typing.
Brent
Spike, you're back!
Anyway, sonic if you're interested I have a Panasonic Q for sale at US$400 shipped.
Gamecube is the bomb diggity !
well if it wasnt because of finances, i wouldnt be asking in the first place :p
i really want the most bang fo mah buck currently, and i think i'll get the cube, and hold off and get an xbox for christmas or something.
i'd get a q, but i dont have the cash, and imo its not worth it since i gots a dvd player.
namezisx, email me ;) im interested.
i got a gc just for beach spikers.
its the most fantastic game in the world.
its girls and volleyball.
and yes. i am looking forward to DOA volleyball too.
but beach spikers is the shit.
you can make your own girls!
whooooo!
plus. its hella fun! i m pretty sad it didnt get
the coverage that alot of other games do.
i m looking forward to animal crossing tomorrow
and for the future i really cant wait for zelda and metriod.
and of course i hardly need to mention PSO
o. and biohazard 0.
but thats it.
i think your choice of system should correspond to
what games you want. i m not sure why thats so hard
to understand. i plan on getting an xbox around oct for
shen mue and i already have jsf and i m planning
to get gunvalkrye when i get around to it.
so much stuff to get... so little time.
wish i had broadband. i probably would have gotten an xbox first.
unfortunately i go where SEGA goes. and damit. they
just have to go every where dont they.
they re not making it easy.
i m sticking with my GC though. sonic teams putting
a good bit of stuff on the gc.
i m still holding my breath for NiGHTS.
not just some hokey gba one.
its all sega's fault!
if it wasnt for them, i wouldnt want any of the 3. but now i need them all!!!!!
moo.
i guess gc first, xbox later, and ps2 when its $29.99 retail
I never said i dont own a gamecube. I'm actually looking a a Q system right now, So fuck off. He asked for our opinions, i gave mine. He asked if he should buy a Gamecube, i said no. Since he provided no other information, i had to assume he wanted to know whick ONE system out of the two he should buy, i said Xbox. I personally own them all, i simply play my 'Cube less since...
A)The Cube has less gotta have, killer apps than any other system. Hell, it doesn't even have one yet.
B)Most of the games are done better on other systems.
C)WHAT THE FUCK WERE THEY THINKING WHEN THEY DESIGNED THAT CONTROLLER! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! Can you seriously tell me you would rather use that....thing to play any game than any other controller out there? I dare any of you to beat me at Capcom vs. SNK using that piece of crap without using that cheat-one button-groove. Why do you think they came up with that groove in the first place? It's the only way to make the game playable, due to the horrible controller and the fact that...
D)The Gamecube is made for little kids. You know it, I know it, We all know it. You can deny it if you want, but deep down you know it's true. I don't not like the Cube because it's for kids, i don't like the Cube because it doesn't seem like a viable long term investment.
E) [quote]Matt Semmel Said:

Nintendo isn't even supporting it fully, so good luck.
Um...By the way Matt, Kim...Nice conversational skills you got there.
Sonic asked for our opinions, you respond with that? Superb.
Matt, you've struck me as a smart guy, why you can't come up with something better surprises me.
Did you guys even bother to follow the link? If you did, you would find some pretty good information concerning the cube.
IMO game cube is the most promising of the current systems. I think animal crossing just pushed me over the edge. That game looks amazing.

Usually people make lists like that composed of facts to prove a point; but these are just more of your opinion. And we already know it, you think its a dead system.
It's because of that opinion, we all judged you a dumbass. It's as simple as that. Don't get all defensive if you come out of the gate swinging your arms of ignorance and a few people think your opinion is ass.
On that note, I would get a gamecube. Especially for a party system. what a good time every four player game is on that little box.
peace,

To your surprise, I have Panasonic Q and it's collecting dust. Only GC game I have so far is Biohazard (Resident Evil) and that's about it.
I think my next game will be either Animal Crossing or Biohazard 0
I also have PS2....but it's collecting dust too...
Once again BLAINE has the correct answer.
I love my Cube , and look forward to a the future of gaming with it.
Can you "Prove" the Gamecube is "Good"? If so, i'd like to hear it.
If you want some facts, click on the link i posted. Oh, wait, Thats just opinion.
Ok, ask Nintendo...Oh, right. Opinion.
Ask Kid Aphex, ask Matt, ask Blaine, ask Kim_Kaphwan, ask Spike...Dang! There's that opinion again.

Now for some reason that makes me a "Fucktard" and "Ignorant" since i don't agree with your facts...oh wait, opinions.
I have the right to my own opinions, so do we all, but i don't tear into someone because they differ from mine.
Defensive? Yes, because i have the right to defend myself and my opinions. Notice how i obviously don't agree with people like Matt Semmel, or Kim_Kaphwan, yet i don't lash out with such childish remarks.

That's why I don't 'repect' you. Your post about the gamecube was goofy...and the reasons you thought it sucked, while your opinions, are really nebulous.

I'm gonna have to go ahead and disagree with you. As it's been said that everyone is entitled to thier opinion, which I agree with, this is just my opinion as well.
The Cube is not for kids. In fact Miyamoto as well as representives from Nintendo have come out and specifically said that it's NOT just for kids.
They know their core audience has matured and so have thier tastes. This is why games like Blood Rayne, Resident Evil, Eternal Darkness, The Game Formerly Known As Dave Mirra XXX, Turok, Timesplitters 2... are all on the cube. Pretty much any game that is coming out for PS2 and XBox is coming out for the Cube.
It's not as if kids don't buy the Xbox. In fact, I'll bet you the cube has a larger cross section of adult gamers than the Xbox does. I have no facts to prove that, but I also don't have any to disprove it, I just know that everyone I know leans towards the GameCube over the Xbox and that there's nothing more a 13 year old would want than the promise of blood and bouncy 3D tits. Some say Nintendo is the kiddie system because of the graphics of it's games. Super Mario Sunshine is about 4x an 'adult' game than Bloodwake will ever be. I've played both. Bloodwake was so simple it was absurd. SMS can be quite hard. But Bloodwake isn't a kiddie game where as SMS is?
I mean, I'm not attacking you or your opinion but I hear this same argument all the time. That Nintendo is for kids. Where's the proof? Because of the way the games look? Sure there are complicated and complex games on the Xbox and there are simple games on the Cube, but if the only thing that is making these games 'for kids' is the way they look than that's a fairly stupid criteria for a video game.
I'll agree with you about the life span. I think the PS2 will out live either of the two, but know what? What game system lives forever? 5 years is the average life span for any system and with the notable exception of the Virtual Boy, Nintendo systems last even if they're losing the current console war. So personally I wouldn't be too worried about it.

unless, of course, you're not biased and you enjoy the games.

I must be a little kid. A little kid with a job and can drive and has bills to pay. All my other friends must be kids too. Damn i have alot little kids as friends, hell even some of them have their own kids!! Kids with Kids!!

sonic, which system has more sega support? You seem to be a sega fan so go with what has the most sega support. You have a choice, Make your time........
[ September 16, 2002: Message edited by: SPINMASTER X ]</p>
if you really are a dork you'll get an xbox. Sure sega is giving them thier full support but even with that I still don't see it going anywhere. Think of it as a dreamcast2 of sorts.(I realize me posting anything is flame-bait enoght, but this is just asking for it) either way I would only buy one once it's less than 100

does that make me less a gamer since i dislike sony.
i think most of the games that appear on it is
pretty mainstream, dull and unimaginative.
the few that i see that are good i pick up.
i have a few games that peak my interest and am
planning on picking up gungrave.
i played the demo and it was very nicely put together.
although i heard its short.
i dont care where the game lands. if i want it i ll
pick it up.
but i wont throw my money at sony.
i d rather let my funds support a company that
i want to see around like nintendo or SEGA and

Looks like you've already got your mind made up, Sonic, but I'll say it anyway. Get a Cube.
It goes without saying that you like Sega and if you're gonna get a Cube you'll the Monkey Ball, Beach Spikers, etc. You'll also probably pick up Mario Sunshine becuase.. well.. it's Mario. But here's one game I gotta recommend..
BOMBERMAN GENREATION
You just gotta get that game. It's so sweet. :cool:
On the ant-GameCube opinions...
What's this about GameCube being a dead system and why waste your money on a dead system?
It seems like a lot of people here have, support, and like their GameCubes. It also seems there are a lot of people interested in getting a GameCube becuase there are some great AAA titles coming out for it. I don't call that a dead system.
A kiddy system? That's right! I totally forgot that Resident Evil and Eternal Darkness were "kiddy" games. WOW HOW COULD I BE SO BLIND?
Oh yeah Super Monkey Ball and Mario are too "kiddie" for the older crowd to enjoy? :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
I have owned at one point or another nearly every major system,and it all comes down to this:It's all abuot the games!
Blaine couldn't have said it better.
If your a gamer go get one.

Of course you're not a lesser gamer. I just think there are a lot of PS2 games you mayve missed.
I have a gamecube and I love it, Its a cute little system with crazy iners! Man it sure can pump out awesome graphics for a great price. Software for it is excellent, might not be alot of titles, but they are quality!
Hmm... I wonder if a Neo-Geo board would be a good place to talk about dead systems not worth supporting. :p Raise your hands if anyone here owns a Neo?! (Okay, not entirely dead)... Dreamcast?! (oh, not entirely dead)... umm... Saturn then? :p
However, I think that the GC will at least have as much of a chance as the N64 had...
Seriously, buy what you can afford, and be happy with it. There's hardly anything you'll ever going to miss on the other consoles. They'll be price drops, they'll be clearance sales sooner or later. Take advantage of them when you can. ;) I had a PSX before a Saturn. Picked up the saturn at a pawn shop for 60$CDN, and then bought a bunch of games for 5$-10$... ARGH, missed my change to get Panzer Dragoon Saga when it came out though... *&$@
I have a magic price point. 200$. If the console is 200$CDN then I'll buy it. [Found my GC for 200$CDN used]. If the games are 30$CDN [and under], then I buy them. Otherwise I stall... I debate if I'll ever get a chance to see the game again... I wonder if I really want it that much...

Eternal Darkness
Resi evil
Kuigis Mansion
Rogue Leader
Monkey ball
Monkey ball 2
SSB2: Melee
Turok
Waverace

well then i'm a five year old who likes the gamecube. and as a five year old i will defend what i like. that's why i called you a fucktard. you come in here claiming my favorite next-gen system, is dead well i'm attempting to stand up for it. go play ssbm with a bunch of your friends you'll be hooked. play pikmin, after about an hour you'll want to finish it. super monkey ball should proivide you with enough challenge to last you quite some time. the list goes on, though most of the games always say coming soon, they're coming and when they do i'll be there. sure i'm a five year old mindles drone for nintendo. fine, by your logic i'am. but when i step outside myself and look at the top three systems as an unbiased noob i see an x-box big buly flashy cool. halo blew me away on so many levels i can't even begin to elaborate, but where's the future what's on the horizon... shenmue 2, played it. panzer dragoon orta. not interested. halo2 might do it. but i gotta wait till next year and as a five year old i want it now!!!! then i see the cube. mario zelda titles i grew up with. wow. and the ps2, good okay 4 good games...hmmm what to get i go with what i know and familiar with the cube. i know people hate it so what. they can blow it out their asses. i have thew freedom to make my own five year old mindless choice. and when someone bashes my choice i get defensive. as anyfive year old would. be glad i don't push you ion the sand box.
Nintendo comes out with some thight shit every once and a while, the GC is the last on my list of systems to get but it's on there. Had it came out the same time as the PS2 I might have gotten it before the PS2.
