Nintendo isn't making real money on the gamecube right now.  Nearly all of their profits in the console market come from software sales.  Software prices go down profits go down.  profits go down new nintendo innovations go down.  innovations go down nintendo goes down. my logic final.

I can't blame Ubisoft for what they're doing with POP2, considering the sales for POPST, I got the game last xmas myself, but it's gotten lost with all the other games I'm playing, but really noone bought it relative to other AAA games.

This year is truly the year of the games, after cutting the list of the game's I'd like to purchase to about 50% of what it was, I'm left with these titles to consider buying:

I'm working as much as humanly possible now so that I can afford the new games and systems coming out by christmas.  Speaking of PoP:tWW, I don't like that all my games are turning darker, but at least this one makes sense.  I'm tired of games becoming darker just for the sake of becoming darker(Jak II)  PoP:SoT was a pretty dark game in its own rights, I mean the prince's life should have been extinguished at the begining of the first game, it only makes sense that after being chased for so long that he would get real pissed go on a killing spree.  At least he didn't start off hopping around and then majically pulling out guns and shooting things.

Christmas 2004 is going to be a publisher's nightmare, analysts predict that the only ones left standing will be Half-Life 2 and Halo 2. We have a 5x over saturation on the market coming up.
