I dunno about what my second console would be. I was pretty focused on PS2.. but Xbox is so much sexier now.

Why, do you ask? Ninja Gaiden.. exclusive. That\'s why!

Arguably my favorite 3rd-party NES franchise (only Castlevania and Mega Man contend) brought back to life.

Right here..

Tecmo is shafting the GameCube.. typical..

They deliver PS2 and Xbox games at launch and beyond.. GCN doesn\'t get an announcement..

capable, ok

sell the least amount of copies, yes

ask oddworld that would have happened had they released munch\'s oddysee on PS2 instead of xbox

then ask the creaters of malice and wreckless and transworld surf

companies staying xbox only are severely restricting thier market

Ninja gaiden is just another great game coming out on xbox.

It\'s just so unfair though!

Ninja Gaiden first appeared at home on a Nintendo system. My claim is.. I\'ve stuck with Nintendo for over 10 years just to get the latest Ninja Gaiden on my new Nintendo console! Tecmo, why have thou forsaken me?! Oh well.. if it\'s anything like Tecmo\'s other new game (a Beach Spikers ripoff featuring the DOA girls) I\'m not too disappointed..

It is a miracle there is any exclusive games on a system that sells that poorly.  Looks like there is alot of people on MS\'s payroll... . .

July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

Too soon. That is all I have to say. Nintendo was aleady level with Sony and MS and they have plenty of potenial sellers coming out this year, they didn\'t need to lower the price. MS did because of low sales and lack of killer first party games. Nintendo didn\'t....

I am with MM on this..I don\'t like all this price dropping.

After seeing Mario, Zelda, Metroid, etc.. I think they should have left it at $199.

It\'s becoming more and more evident that the GameCube is up there.. right next to the Xbox in power..

Once consumers see this, see games like Metroid Prime, and see the $149 price-tag.. Nintendo\'s going to be in a world of s**t trying to supply the demand. Metroid and Eternal Darkness aren\'t enough to woo mature gamers?

Well, Halo was enough to sell over 2 million Xbox systems worldwide.. GoldenEye was enough for N64..

That\'s funny. I recall hearing that last when Halo and Munch went to Xbox...
