3) Canadian site NintendoRevolution.ca(lucky them on the name, now they don’t look like they’re tied to only one system… so much) takes a look at how Wii must learn from our mistakes.

“The failure of the Nintendo Gamecube marked a pivotal change in direction for Nintendo. No longer could Nintendo simply whip up an inferior console with conventional controllers and mediocre third party support, slap Mario’s name on a few first person games, and dominate the console race. Sadly, Nintendo’s slogan of being a “pure gaming system” just didn’t fly, along with a few other things. These are the top ten reasons why the Gamecube failed.”

And hey, while it may not have been an ideal replacement for Mario as a launch title, Luigi’s Mansion fucking rocks.

…and since when is PS2′s graphics better than GameCube? I don’t remember Dreamcast’s being worse, either.

10) Like many others who’ve played it, GameSpy seems to love Rockman ZX.

But Rez’ll still hate it.

11) While I don’t particularly care for Call of Duty 3 myself, I’m glad to hear that Wii is getting it. Maybe my dad would like that…

12) I… I have a collection like this… it’s just not here right now.

Really.

*sobs*

Seriously, let me just say, “Holy HELL, that is one awesome collection!”

13) Um, ok, at least Sony is trying new things…
