One xbox owner fights every battle Bond and I are tired.

Everyone who now owns an xbox and lovingly invests in it (ie people not like gekko who don't own the system for only one developer) is going to buy xbox 2 because we love the box. Give xbox 2 90% of xbox's user base and continue on the same hardware sales with slightly faster software sales next gen and xbox is fine.

On the cube side, there are several long time nintendo owners who are not satisfied with the cube. People such as myself.

Who owns the cube: Nintendo long timers, people like me. Either they've always follwed nintendo, or they've owned every system, chances are, if you own a cube, you've got some other piece of nintendo hardware in your home.

People who own the cube: Nintendo mainstays
Nintendo mainstays: Getting pissed off by nintendo

Xbox is the first microsoft console, and people are happy with it.

If nintendo is losing money on the gamecube, but making money overall on gba, why are they more likely to stay in the game than MS?

MS losing money on xbox, making money overall because they're MS.

MS doesn't need to worry about profits, they will just continue to wittle the competors away.

Nintendo = On the way out
Xbox = On the way up
