I would definantly play if there were things aside from kirby's playground and such. But until then I will never buy anything nintendo

What the hell are you smoking? First of all, likeing a system for better graphics and higher framrates is the dumbest ****headed thing ive ever heard. Secondly, thats not true anyways, because the the best looking games on the Cube look just as good as the best looking games on Xbox, and that framerate thing is bullocks as well.

Lastly, no, you DONT know how to spell graPHics.

But when the same game is released on both the Xbox and the Cube the Xbox one almost always looks better.

Do you have any facts or screenshots to back that up with? I dont either, but until one of us get some, we both lose. Or we tie. Whichever you prefer.

N64 was a GREAT console.

Anyway, all I know is Ill never pay for online unless I have a good steady income.

"But when the same game is released on both the Xbox and the Cube the Xbox one almost always looks better."

Thats cause 3rd party devs get pretty lazy with the cube. It is easy to program for, yet the GC's version often comes out last, and on occasion looks worse than the other 2 (there is NO excuse for it too look worse than PS2's version). Then they blame the cube for their low sales as if anybody would want to buy their third rate port crap.

I'm going to remain optimistic for Nintendo's next console.

I personally, was satisfied with the Gamecube. It has some great games which I've enjoyed.

I think the focus on GBA-Gamecube connectivity has taken away from the Gamecube's success though. There have been some games that made a point of focusing on the GBA connection but had absolutley no appeal to me. And for the next console, I'd like to see Nintendo focus much less on the handheld/console connectivity and more on online connectivity.

I also would like to see Nintendo remain just a gaming machine. I think focusing on outside features like DVD support and computer connectivity is unneccessary and takes away from the concentration of making good games.
