NINTENDO GAMECUBE Selling Non-Stop at Rate of 27 Per Minute

Quote:
... NINTENDO GAMECUBE home video game console has reached sales of nearly 600,000 units in America in 15 days, or an average of 27 per minute--nonstop--since its November 18th introduction.

HAHA - eat your hat Kieran! Saying the Gamecube was a failure... pffft.

Nintendo is for kids.

well, it's excusable for a kid to get one 'cos they're young and naive.

teenagers and adults have no excuse.


This will be Nintendo's last console because they fucking suck so fucking unbeliebably badly.

I don't know the full specs for the Game Cube, but I expect it comes with a tape drive and games cost £90 but don't work properly unless you buy a £20 save game pack.

I bet the thing has a timer in it which counts down to zero from a million and then self destructs unless you upgrade both control pads before the time is up.

Probably has an anthrax payload in it too if you don't buy Mario and Mario Kart within 3 months of buying the console.

Gamecube is the FASTEST SELLING CONSOLE EVER!!!

I think it will be the best console over here in the UK ever. But I still think the PS2 is great.

Shut up Ferret! Macs are great! Gamecube rules! And a Clabracroneese Chinese mobile phone may just be on Cheyney's XMAS Wish list! What PC do you have Ferret? Can't even change your custom title.

How dumb are you homosexual wookies? The only reason that Gamecube is selling more consoles is because those hunks of plastic cost 100 bucks less than a PS2 or an Xbox. PS2 is kicking GC's ass in overall sales so much it's laughable.

If a console came out from Sony that was priced at $199, it would blow Nintendo out of the water in console sales. So shut up you dumbasses. Gamecube is for toddlers.

I for one plan to buy a gamecube.

i don't care if playstation 2 has a dvd player or whatever, i for one have been a loyal nintendo fan my whole life.

don't forget nintendo started it all!!! nintendo started the whole fuckin game console industry, and it would suck if nintendo dropped outta the industry they started!!

nintendo came out! then sega.


and i'm simply buying gamecube for the games. i wanna get the gamecube for even better versions of classics such as star fox, star fox 64 was fuckin awesome! kix the shit outta any plane game!!

conker's bad fur day, is the best fuckin role playing game there is, cuz it's hilarius!

legend of zelda is a fun game and kix the shit outta FF any day of the week.

F-zero X on 64 was awesome, and i imagine they're makin a gamecube version. F-zero X is way more fun to play than that over-rated game on playstation: Gran Turismo.

Then of course there's the james bond and the perfect dark.

I absolutely loved the n64, and i plan to get a game cube.

sure there a lota games targetted towards kids, but there are a lota games towards teens too.

and i sure hope they make a contra gamecube version, cuz having no contra 64 was a dissapointment.

I just didn't like playstation. i hate the controller for one! it just sux! and i tried games like gran turismo, twisted metal, and other games like that and they all sucked!

Ok, GameCube doesnt suck, but I still think PS2 will win. But yeah, it would be stupid if Nintendo is going to drop out of the industry.
