Anybody miss the Gamecube sheep?

Cheapest console that vastly outperformed the PS2, tons of amazing exclusives that pushed technical capabilities, brilliant third party games like REmake, Symphonia, Eternal Darkness etc. Best versions of games like Prince of Persia, Soul Calibur 2.

What a proud and great console it was even if it had some big droughts. It was a system worth defending, and so the faction was respectable.

Now you get a bunch of delussional manchildren who are emotionally invested in a platform thats designed at a retarded audience of casuals, after all the hate they gave the PS2 for having "casual trash" like GTA and Madden. Forced to defend graphical mediocrity, and third party shovelware or garbage made by third rate teams that don't care. The vast majority of the new sheep did not own the N64/GCN, nevermind the NES/SNES which were the pinnacle of Nintendo consoles.

What a tragic fate has befallen the sheep faction, all of the real sheep have died long ago.

its no secret that the consoles that are cheap and casual win the console race,

do you start to see the paralels between the wii and ps2, and why both were sucsessful

-

and i can guess that cows were alot diffrent in the past too

no bragging about graphics

no threads about how casuals destroy gaming

not to maintion that the GCN had about every GOTY

Yes i do remember them.

Do you think Nintendo just woke up one morning and said 'because the GC was so successful in targeting hardcore gamers, we should scrap all that and go for casuals'? No, it was more 'Ok they dont want us, lets move on'. (And no they havent abandoned the hardcore). Its annoying seeing people cry about how Nintendo are now when they are the ones that made them like that. Its your own damn fault.

Times change, people need to move on.

I say we wait till the end of this gen before deciding that. If this gen is as long as they see its going to be (next gen at 2012/2013) The Wii could end up being the best Nintendo console ever bya large margin.

i dont see your point, the wii costs more then the xbox360 in my country, i said both were cheap consoles, not THE cheapest

this thread is pointless,

you chould aswell typed in "where are the ps2 cows?"

nintendo needs to face the fact that they cant make fanboys like them.

first they made the best console ever created (N64)

no one bought it, couse they wanted the casual trash that is the PS1, whitch had like 1 good game, FF7

then nintendo made a fantastic console which was the opposite of the casual ps2

(the GCN) no one bought it,

then nintendo went back to their roots and released a console which atracts both casuals and hardcores.

everyone buys it, but fanboys still dont like it, becouse now they suddenly regret not buying the N64 or GCN

I still have a gamecube, best console ever. Never breaks. Ever.
