That\'s exactly what I was thinking.  Don\'t you have to have over 500 posts before you can call people trolls on this forum?  I guess some people just aren\'t very good at following the rules...

Your right Ironfist,..........Clyde has only done just under 200 posts so he can call anybody a newbie (mind you he is this forums one and only primate.........{looks at No-one} ok there are 2 of them).

Unless it was MM that posted that and didn\'t realise that Clyde was still logged on to his PC.

MM to avoid this get everyones fav\' Chimp his very own Laptop that way we can his primate words of wisdom 24/7.

mm cant afford a laptop, he spends all his money on his car, girlfriend, school, and something called "rolling rock"

I can only think of one thing; it\'s called Maddenallstarbaseballfifavirtuastrikersonicadventuresoulcaliberdavemirratonyhawksproskatercrazytaxiresidentevilwaveracebluestormstarwarsrogueleadermetroidbloodyroarextremeeternaldarknessnflblitzssxsupersmashbrosmonkeyballpikminmariozeldastarfoxadventuresluigimansiondarksummitphantasystaronlinefinalfantasynbacourtsidenhlhitzwwfwrestlemaniaperfectdarkzero...

But hey, if you can\'t afford a DVD player and just have to see the Cast Away bonus footage, don\'t worry about it...

Eiksirf, I didn\'t read through all those games, but I did notice that you put Final Fantasy as one of them as my eyes were passing over the list.  Did you slip in games that you want to come to the NGC just to make the list bigger or what?

You\'re right.  Rethought that one after I read around a bit afterwards.  I was mainly thinking Final Fantasy XI and this rumor which I read yesterday: "According to several (unconfirmed) reports Square will announce support for Nintendo GameCube on October 12th, the first day of the Tokyo Game Show. Square is expected to reveal support for Nintendo GameCube and Game Boy Advance. As part of the deal, enhanced versions of Final Fantasy 7, 8 and 9 may become GameCube exclusives. These remakes will take full advantage of the GameCube\'s capabilities. After the huge loss Square took from the Final Fantasy movie, they will need more than PS2 games to calm their investors. Square has stated that they would like to bring every SNES (Super Famicom) Final Fantasy game to the Game Boy Advance." - MIPS36

Plus there were the more widely reported rumors a week ago, but the lack of substance from those is what makes me wonder at this point.

Even so, my original point hasn\'t changed.

makes sense for square to need to go multi-platform after the loss they took cause of the moive,  but remakes wont do it justice,  atleast not to me...and until i hear square officially announce something,  im not gonna listen to rumors....
square knows sony is the place to be to bring in the cash and i believe that theyll keep the FF series on the playstation for a long time.....

If you really aren\'t into the games, that\'s your opinion and you\'re entitled to it.  I, however, am trying to figure out how I\'m going to afford Luigi, Wave Race, Super Smash Bros, Rogue Leader, Monkey Ball, Pikmin, Eternal Darkness (all exclusive), Madden, Tony Hawk 3, Sonic Adventure 2 (and it\'s interactive GBA title) by Christmas.

And if you really don\'t have an opinion on these games other than that they "look like" they\'re bad, you might want to surf around for some hands-on impressions.  You won\'t be disappointed.

Of all the exclusive titles I\'ve listed, they\'ve all been raved about from those who\'ve experienced them.  The only one that has faltered slightly is Luigi with its short game span.  On the other hand, after playing it no one has said Luigi isn\'t worth your $50, either, they just said it was short.

Anyway, that\'s what\'s good.  To be honest, I think your question should be "What\'s bad about Gamecube?"  *fears pending flood of Nintendo bashing*

-Eik

keep in mind that monkey ball is not exclusive and will be on the ps2 as well officially stated by sega earlier last week...

and i have seen the gamecube in action via dvd movies....and...ill have my press conference tonight....lol

hope to see you all there...hahahahah

True, it is very possible (and very likely) that Square will bring the FF remakes over to the NGC.  But until they officially announce it, it isn\'t true.  Square should bring the remakes of FF7, 8, and 9 to the NGC for the same reason Capcom brought the RE series over to the NGC -- the Nintendo gamers are new to these games.  Square will make tons more money bringing them over to the NGC than they would bringing it to the PS2.

Also, FF11 should go to all systems if it\'s going to be successful.  I am really hoping the problems between Nintendo and Square are resolved just so that game turns out to be great.

Hopefully this TGS will shed some light on this subject.

Off Topic:  At this TGS VF4 on the PS2 will also be shown.  We will finally see if the PS2 is capable of handling games from the Naomi 2 board.  Yay.

Anyway, that\'s what\'s good. To be honest, I think your question should be "What\'s bad about Gamecube?" *fears pending flood of Nintendo bashing*

lol.  Yeah, that\'s not a good idea.  There are tons of things I could bash the NGC for, but I won\'t because it is still an awesome console.

What?
