Gc Sells More Then Box????!

The four stores in my area, Future Shop, TRU, EB and Compucenter have many more more GCs left than xboxes.  This may be because N sent more but all four stores are already out of xboxes (with the exception of TRU--oddly enough--it has about half a dozen).  All four stores have quite a few GCs remaining.

Now this doesn\'t mean anything really because N shipped more units, but it does indicate that there isn\'t a complete sellout (TRU alone has/had over 30 units left).

I think both companies are posturing now.  We\'ll have to wait and see.

Well ofcourse x-box sold out it only shipped 300,000, 400,000 less then GCN! Still gc sold atleast 1/2 of their gc which is the most x-box couldve sold. And lets not forget that x-box was way more hyped then GC.

Let me tell you I\'m impress about how well Nintendo sold his GC here in Mexico. We never had a launch day parallel to the US launch. Here in Mexico the NGC was sold on preorder for $550 USD!! YES!! $550 USD!! (Legally imported and with warranty in Mexico, you can also buy it for around $300 USD in the black market) And with that price it couldn\'t sell out but it do pretty well. I visited 6 stores on launch day just to see how it was doing. The 6 stores received about 60 GC and around 50 of those in each store were all ready sold in preorder. Yesterday, this stores had 3 or 4 units left. The memory cards however were all ready sold out everywhere.

MS couldn\'t manufacture moe then the 300,000 it has nothing ot do with what they felt was a good number

and Nintendo diehards all ran out an bought the lamepube

in a month all those diehards will have a LP and there won\'t be many people around who will want the lamepube

LamePube? What the hell is up with you? Is there something drasticly wrong with owning a GC? Just because you don\'t want one or don\'t like one, does not mean it sucks or anything. The GC will continue to be a succesful system due to families who have younger children or people who just enjoy classic Nintendo franchises. Remember, not all of us require killing / adult themes in our games. Sheesh.

Still,I  doubt Nintendo even came close to selling every unit.

Here is something for you to mull over cloud345.

Listen I have no beef with you but I despise Nintendo and all that wishy washy crap they put out on the N64.

I also despise there diehard fans who think Nintendo is the only thing worth while. I\'ve dealt with them since the day the PS2 was announced. Granted there are idiots on all sides of the fence but coupled with my dislike for the COmpany there games and there atitude I enjoy poking fun at the Lamepube

Its a personal feeling its stupid its childish its lame its whatever you care to call it.

I DON\'T CARE

We\'ve heard sux box, we\'ve heard gaystation and now I add lamepube

its nothing personal to anyone and those who are offended, to bad ignore it otherwise I get satisfaction from it

  In other words why should any one of you care what I think if you already know what you like to begin with

I\'m just having fun screwing with people in a childish manner. and its what I feel the console debate forum is for. Stupid childish opinions and rants

Stupid childish opinions and rants

thats the place allright
just ask docwiz or directxbox

Thats rite folks cinescape has been delivering us the most acurate news  since 1989:rolleyes:

I don\'t care who sold out as long as both did ok.

yes, yes

competition creates better gaming

i wonder who wrote that

It seems that X-Box did better than GC in the first 2 weeks...

""The Xbox™ video game system from Microsoft Corp. had the best-selling video game console launch on record after two weeks of sales, according to The NPD Group Inc., the definitive source for sales and market data on the video game industry.

"The data clearly show that Xbox is off to a torrid start," said Robbie Bach, chief Xbox officer at Microsoft. "Xbox sold out as soon as we launched, and we\'re selling systems as fast as we can produce them. More than 100,000 units a week are being delivered to retailers, so game players are likely to find Xbox systems throughout the holiday season. With one of the best launch lineups ever, I understand why Xbox is the most sought-after gift for the holiday."

Most importantly, Xbox purchasers can\'t get enough of the Xbox launch games. According to The NPD Group, gamers are buying 2.4 Xbox games with every Xbox, resulting in the highest game attach rate ever recorded for a console at launch. Sony Computer Entertainment America Inc. sold 1.9 games with every PlayStation 2 during the first two weeks of its launch last year, and Nintendo Company Ltd. has sold 1.9 games with every GameCube to date.

Microsoft\'s "Halo™" was the best-selling launch title according to actual NPD data, beating "Luigi\'s Mansion," the top-selling GameCube game. "Halo," the critically acclaimed sci-fi action game, also recently received a 10 out of 10 rating from the editors at Electronic Gaming Monthly magazine. Sales are also very strong for Microsoft "Project Gotham Racing™," "NFL™ Fever 2002," and third-party games such as "Dead or Alive 3™" from Tecmo, "Madden NFL™ 2002" from Electronic Arts and "Tony Hawk\'s Pro Skater™ 2x" from Activision Inc.

Umm Ryu, MS didn\'t pull a Sony by any means. They only supplies slightly less than the demand to create a sense of need for consumers.

That\'s exactly what Sony did, bro.
