What Happened To The Gamecube??

The Gamecube, in my opinion, was..slightly below satisfactory.I actually have a Gamecube, although the last timeI played it was...well, honestly I can't even recall the last time I played it. People have to admit: Resident Evil 4 was a GREAT game. The new Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess, was also a good game. But suffice it to say, even before the Wii came Out, the Gamecube was dying. And then, Nintendo releases the next-generation Wii. The next thing you know, people are wondering what your talking about when you ask them if they have a "Gamecube". (Oh and just to put this out there, I'm not saying the Wii is abad system, I'm just saying that it virtually KILLED the Gamecube) So, I'm asking you, The people of Gamespot, why do you think the Gamecube died out?

why do you think the Gamecube died out?sdude55

It was basically a useless system in the first place. There is no need for it since the wii is a gamecube on steroids. Nintendo doesnt want to sell the GC anyways, they want to sell Wiis

Millions of Gamecubes have sole in the past 6-7 months...

Their just bundled with Wii Sports,a Wiimote, and a Nunchuk. LOL

But seriously, just buy a Wii and play your GC stuff on it. Wii's backward compatibility and some great GC titles is making me purchase GC joysticks and games. During the last gen, I wouldn't have got caught dead even looking at GC stuff.

The same reason the original Xbox died out. (The PS2 is the only last gen system that's still selling.)

The real reason? Due to slagging sales and the promotion of the Wii console, Nintendo ceased production on the unit and redirected titles and hardware manufacture towards the Wii.

My favorite reason? "What's this? Gamecube is evolving! Your Gamecube evolved into ........... Wii!" *Evolution music*

The Gamecube really isn't dead, but Nintendo abandond it as soon as the Wii came out. It's basically the same thing microsoft did with the Xbox when the 360 came out. Sony is the only company that actually uses one of their older systems, but I hate the PS3 so I don't care what Sony is doing right now. I say Gamecube isn't dead because there is still Twilight Princess to buy for it but Im pretty sure here soon everyone will have played it and there will be no more cube. Wait..im like 8 months behind...yeah the cubes dead...XD
