What can I say?... I wish I could just tell you STFU, go play your Xbox with it's plethora of games(as you seem to think it has), and just relax until the Cube games you want finally come out.

Well, I *could* keep it simple and leave it at that(afterall, you didn't went into a whole lot of detail either), but I want to say a bit more...

It's not a perfect world, sometimes you have to be a little patient before you can get what you want. Just because things may be a bit slow right now, is no real reason to throw a fit(expecially for those who own PS2 or Xbox as well). It also is not reason enough to support the statement that "the big N is making the same mistake," especially after it's off to a decent start, and has more antiscipated games coming this year than N64 had in more than half of it's entire lifespan.

Of course, I understand where people are coming from when they complain about not having anything new and exciting to play at the moment, but I won't find myself blowing a fuse over it(and I only have GC... although I have access to other current-gen consoles). I mean, I didn't buy a GC (this early), expecting there to be quality games launching every day/week or something. I'm sorry for those who where expecting that.

Each console has at least one trade-off or another(when it's a software issue, that means it can impove). Considering trade-offs and the tone of your post(specifically the title), one could also say "F**k Sony" or "F**k Microsoft" simply because they don't have the 1st and 2nd party tallent that Nintendo does. They also don't have the franchises like Nintendo. Heck, if it's that easy to write Nitendo off because the games are coming out fast enought(at this point), I suppose it's also fair to write their competitors off for much less subtle reasons. Just a thought..

It appears that most hardcore gamers(as the majority of us are), bought GameCube MAINLY for the tons of quality exclusive software. Not because those tons of quality exclusives would come pooring like rain, but because they'll come. Not to exclude the wide variety of 3rd-party software that well see in the near future, mind you.

What makes this particular post a bit ridiculous/questionable, is the fact that you DO own an Xbox, and you clearly implied that you play it more, and it has more games(that you seem to enjoy very much). Based on that, then why you can't play your Xbox while you wait for some Cube games? Or is is more fun to bash and condemn Nintendo? It seems to be the trend if you ask me...

"F**k Nintendo" you said...

Rock, looking at your post, you haven't really gone into any detail about anything, expecially not to justify your seemingly intense rage. I think you just need to chill. You have another console right there with your Cube--something that not everyone is fortunate enought to claim--and you claim you are enjoying it. Isn't that what counts and shouldn't that help you to better cope with the current drought of games?
