The Chicago Tribune throws in its sense of where the Gamecube is, and where it's going. The piece follows a pretty
solid logic, noting that Nintendo has been eerily hushed-up about the console since the pre-holiday season. This kind
of speculation comes as Resident Evil 4 blows the socks off of everyone, mind you. The tone near the end is a little
dire, in my opinion. The GC may not be number one but, by most accounts, it's been a winner for Nintendo. If it's
making money, and it fits the company's goals, then screw what your ranking is.
But the fact is every console has its day, and the GC's may have passed in much of the world. As it slowly fades away
(along with Xbox and Playstation 2), we can look forward to the next-generation of hardware, accessories, hype,
promises, flames, rants, rumor, and, oh yeah, games.
Exit Gamecube. Bring on the revolution.
