I WILL USE THE WORDS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE TO SPEAK TO YOU COMMENERS TODAY. 

I came to talk about the Wii, not to praise it.

The evil that consoles do lives after them;

The good is oft interred with their HDD.

So it be with Gamecube. The noble PS2

Hath told you Gamecube was outdated.

If it were so, it was a griveus fault,

And grieviously hath Gamecube hath answered it.

Here, under leave of PS2 and the rest

(For PS2 is a gamer's console;

So are they all, all gamer's consoles)

Some I to speak, in Gamecube's funeral.

It was my friend, faithfull and just to me;

But PS2 says he was for kids,

And PS2 is a gamer's console.

He hath brought many great games to our enlight,

Whose games brought many much of fun.

Did this Gamecube seem outdated?

When the poor have cried, Gamecube had entertained them;

Outdated-ness should be made out of sterner stuff.

Yet PS2 says he was outdated;

And PS2 is a gamer's machine.

You did see thrice last generation,

the Game of the Year award was given to the Gamecube.

Was this a sign of outdated-ness?

Yet PS2 is a gamer's machine;

And sure it is a gamer's machine.

I speak not to disprove what PS2 has spoke,

But I am here to speak what I do know.

You did all loved Gamecube once, not without cause.

What cause withholds you to mourn for him?

O judgement, thou art fled to brutish beast,

And gamers have lost their reason! Bear with me,

My heart is in the coffin with Gamecube,

And I must pause till it come back to me.

But yesterday the world of the Gamecube might

Have stood against the world. Now lies he there,

And none so poor to do hime reverence.

O masters! If I were disposed to stir

Your hearts and minds into mutiny and rage,

I should do PS2 no wrong, and Xbox no wrong,

Who, you all know, are gamer's consoles.

But, will the next generation be ruled by the so-called gamer's consoles,

Or be ruled by a console that loves us as much as we love it?

Can people in here even understand Shakespeare?

Even with the words Gamecube and PS2 in there?

Amazingly sad.

Bel, you forgot "MADNESS?" at the beginning of that quote...

Anyway, I think it's safe to assume Shakespeare is rolling around in his grave right around now.

Can pretentious professors in tweed jackets with leather patches on the elbows even understand Shakespeare?

Eh, I just OCD'd out bel. The trailer's your way, the actual film is mine. But I don't feel like splitting hairs...

It's safe to say overall that Sparta is displeased

*sniff* the GC is gone, but his spirit lives on in Wii... you may no longer have the box, but his heart is still alive!  I love 100% back-compat.  Now my old friend is immortal.

Actually, it is Shakespeare.

That passage is Mark Antony's speech in the play Julius Ceasar.

I just took out Brutus with PS2 and Ceasar with Gamecube.
