If that's the truth then it's legitimate.

Just because their generation ended in the blink of an eye does not mean it's over for the GC and the PS2.

No, as long the company are willing to support that last gen, it still exist. Why not count the sales that are still accuring?

The Cube is very underated.

The XBOX ended with about 25 million sold. The GCN had sold about 21 or 22 million in the same time frame. Sorry but I seriously doubt the GCN has sold 3 million+ in the last 2 years.

Agreed. It had Metroid Prime, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem, the original releases of Viewtiful Joe and Resident Evil 4, Pikmin, and countless other amazing games.

Anyone who did not own a Gamecube missed out on the complete experience last generation. All four consoles had must-have games, and only a fanboy would deny that the Gamecube was a great system.

RE4, Vietiful Joe, Melee, Wind Waker, Eternal Darkness, REmake, And a ton of great multiplayer games like the mario sports, the timesplitters and Double Dash. I had more fun with the GC than any other console last gen.

No they didn't. That "stopping production" thing was just Perrin Kaplan being an idiot. It turned out to be false, and Gamecube still sells about 15-20 thousand per month worldwide. There's still a handful of games schedules for release this year, although most of them are sports and movie games.

There were really only a few games I enjoyed playing on my GCN compared to my PS2 and XBOX. Viewtiful Joe, RE4, Eternal Darkness: SR, Metroid Prime and a few others.

sammyjenkis898
Zelda: Wind Waker, MP2, Eternal Darkness, Rogue Squadron 2, Smash Bros Melee, Paper Mario: TTYD, F-Zero GX, and Ikaruga. Those all rank high in the greatest games I've ever played and they're exclusive to the GameCube (In the US at least). Plus, that doesn't count multiplats like RE4 or Twilight Princess.

GC is listed above XB, but XB has clearly sold about 3 million more worldwide than GC. Seriously TC, I hope you didn't look at that list and say, "OMG GC sold more than XB!!11!!1one!!!"

You don't think the GCN is capable of selling three million in two years, when we've seen the Wii sell three million in about three months? I don't think the GCN is that pathetic that it can't sell three million in a matter of two years. A lot of people at this point and time look back on the last gen and pick up any consoles/games that they may have missed out on, and with Wii's growing popularity a lot of people are likely to take another look at the GCN while they're at it.

That site doesn't look very reliable. The DS has already been confirmed to have sold around 47 million worldwide, not 40, and the Wii hit the six million points months ago...

Let's practice reading comprehension. It says Mar-2007 on the drop down menu, which means that the figures are about 6 months old. But, if you think the GC has sold 3 million in that time period, you go right ahead.

I didn't know PS2 and 360 came out in the same time OR have the same price tag OR have the same quantity of games...OH! yeah I remember PS2 is much older than 360, has way more games than 360 and costs how much?..130.00$ less?...Wow what a fair comparison:D
