...Well,did the GC beat the Xbox in sales or not?:? I don't think it was made quite clear in this thread....

VGobbsesser

If you read the thread, I posted a like to March 07 statistics that said XB outsold GC by a bit over 3 million at that date. If you're willing to extrapolate that GC didn't sell 3 million consoles between March and August, then XB has still outsold GC.

YaY Gamecube :P. That aside, the GCN came first, as far as I understand, since it made the most profit albeit being a failure - for some reason - in a lot of people's eyes.

sony and microsoft sold their systems at a loss. i don't think sonys gaming division has even broke even yet. they made their money from games and accessories.

shoeman12

games and accessories are part of the gaming division :|. Anyways, PS2 turn profit after a year. They actuall start selling the PS2 at a plus with the PS2 slim version. There is a reason why they called Sony the "Market Leaders".

Reading comprehension is lacking in system wars. The only posts that have been ignored were the ones disproving the TC's point...

The Wii's similar in that aspect.. Maybe there's something to be said for simplicity.

  • Gamecube came second in sales.
  • Gamecube made the second largest amount of money.
  • Gamecube had three GOTY games: Gamespot: Metroid Prime, Zelda: Wind Waker, RE4.
  • The Gamecube had more AAA and AA exclusive games than Xbox.

  1. Gamecube came first in GOTY titles.
  2. Gamecube came second in exclusive Games.
  3. Gamecube came second in profit.
  4. Gamecube came second in sales.

Sixth generation ranks as follows.

  1. Playstation 2
  2. Nintendo Gamecube
  3. Microsoft Xbox

Seventh generation will rank as follows.

  1. Nintendo Wii
  2. Playstation 3
  3. Xbox360

shoeman12

the gc itself made the most money, neither the ps2 or xbox made profit

so you're telling me, 125 million sold = less profit than 25 million sold?????????????

sony and microsoft sold their systems at a loss. i don't think sonys gaming division has even broke even yet. they made their money from games and accessories.

They definatel have broke, considering they made profit on all slim PS2s.

The gamecube just lacked multiplats, a lot of great multiplats came out on ps2 and xbox.

The controller lacked buttons also, bad thumbsticks. I loved my gamecube at first but then I realised how much it was bad compared to the others.

I get the feeling the TC was trying to make a clever joke, implying that the Wii is basically a Gamecube with a fancy controller. Hence, that the GC had outsold the Xbox.

Of course, this is only the case if my English-Fanboy dictionary's fully up to date and I implied correctly

Gamecube was a great console and anyone who says otherwise is clearly a 10 year old who thinks Nintendo is for kiddy 9 year olds.
