Hehehehehehe....I bought my PS2 a friend today.....a Nintendo Gamecube! Now the two can sit side-by-side and keep each other company, and I have the best of both worlds!! (Treated myself to an early birthday present for next Wednesday- hehehe)
A few weeks back I had battled with myself as to whether or not to trade in my PS2 for a Gamecube, and didn't. However this week I also bought a Gameboy Advance with Mario Kart, and haven't really been happy with the quality of the screen on it, and was considering taking it back. My sister now has that. Anyway being a previous N64 owner I do like the Nintendo stuff, and miss the fact that Sony don't have some of the titles.....obviously 'cos they're Nintendo branded..
As to which is better, Gamecube only have a few titles available here in the UK, so it's difficult to say. I don't think there's much in it at this stage. I had Rogue Leader, Sonic and Universal Studios (the latter is crappy!!)
The Gamecube's specs are much higher, so I'm guessing that future releases will be excellent - although I will not be buying the new Zelda game for it, as it looks shamefull!!
Looking at the book you can even hook up the GBA to the console and use it as a controller....hmmmm, will have to look into that!
What consoles have you got???

I'd have to agree that the new Zelda looks like total shit. And just when you thought that was the worst you had to deal with, they come up with the name MARIO SUNSHINE.. my fav. 2 games for snes and n64, both horribly mutilated in some way for the system everybody wants to own anyway.. Let
's hope they will make up for these mistakes with the next mariokart..

I haven't got the wireless WaveBird yet - it looks good!
J198: I really do hope that Mario Kart for Gamecube is good....that's one of my all time Nintendo favourites....

Zelda looks aweful - absolute pants! I bought a magazine and saw the screen shots. Shitty cartoon style no shading or lighting effects - just shit!!

I almost traded the PS2 in for one, but as I had mentioned I didn't ('cos that wouldv'e been a bad move...)
I actually said to myself yesterday whilst I was in the store looking at the Gamecube stuff "You're not getting rid of the PS2...you've been here before...."
....so I bought the Gamecube in addition - hehehe!
Jarworski: Granted some of the pics on that Link (Link get it??!) are OK - but I still don't like the styling of the game.

I played Battle Tanx yesterday on my N64 emulator, and I finished it in some hours with a crazy 62 tank army...
I wonder who uses cheats for games like dat... should be really retarded...

I took back the Universal Studios game today, and told the store it was shit! They swapped it for Luigi's Mansion.....seems quite good. And I also hired NHL Hitz as well, cool smooth animation in the game.

Link from Zelda looks so much better in Smash Bros.Melee on Gamecube, than he looks on the new Zelda screenshots.
Nintendo have made it look to childish....it could turn out to be a big mistake..
Check out the Smash Bros...link http://www.smashbrosmelee.com/~characters/link.shtml
