they could become the greatest game developers in the world. It's just like Sega, the best games for most of the Sega consoles were first party developed. they lost money manufacturing consoles, so they became a company which only developed games, and right now they are producing some very fine titles.
I dont want to see Nintendo go down in a fit of stubborness "The day Nintendo stops producing video game consoles is the day they leave the video game industry" that quote does not sit well with me.

Well as far as I could tell Nintendo has always enjoyed the hardware business because they get to tailor make the console to their liking, I mean how often is it that you find a 1st or 2nd party game on Nintendo that doesn't seem fit for it. As much as folks say the GCN controller is akward, almost every first and second party game I play/own seems to fit the layout of the controller perfectly as well as seems to take the systems faster load time into account. I mean how is it that most of Nintendo's 1st and 2nd part games have no load times compared to some of the 3rd party stuff.
And the fact of the matter there is nothing that is forcing Nintendo's hand, I mean their console still sells, most of the first party stuff hits around a million worldwide and well the GBA still makes them lots of money.
As for the real subject at hand, I ain't saying jack.

Why don't you guys wait until after E3 or later down this year to make this comparsion??
Oh yeah BTW..............GC will own Xbox this year. Once Mario Kart Online is released this year. j/k heh heh heh heh.
But on a serious note here's a list of exclusive/good games that are coming for XBox
This list is based off of my opinion. The exclusive games will have an asterix next to them
Malice *
Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War ( if it improves on the PC version it'll be good)
Dino Crisis 3
B.C.
Star Wars: KOTOR
Deus Ex 2

Soul Calibur II
StarCraft: Ghost ( woot woot)

Kameo: Elements of Power ( One of Rare's games)*
Suikoden III ( I saw this on a release list )
Ninja Gaiden ( this a game I want on GC damn)*
Perfect Dark ( most likely this will be online and own all)*
And I'm sure they are a few other greart games that will be announced for this year
now for the GC
Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker *( Nintendo's first big game)
1080° Avalanche* ( might be good if they fix that control that everyone is complaining about)

Product Number 3 (P.N.03) ( not to sure if it will remain exclusive ...it could follow the way of Splinter Cell)

Malice isn't an Xbox exclusive as I believe there is a Ps2 version in the works as well, but for the purpose of Xbox vs GCN it is exclusive.
I believe Dino Crisi 3 is exclusive to the Xbox.
Harvest Moon: A Wonderfl Life is exclusive to the Cube as far as I could tell.
too Human is exclusive that much I know.
