they're Tempoarily Halting Production not because they don't think they can sell more, just because they were too optimistic with their recent manufacturing orders, leaving them with a Surplus.... So either the Developers will have already been discouraged, or nothing much will happen. When the Gamecube "dies", I don't think that the other consoles will be far behind anyway.... It doesn't look like any one console is going to enjoy the domination that the PSOne had towards the end of the last decade.

Makg, I'd agree. If Nintendo have any sense, they're putting all their weight behind a PSP Challenger - Nowadays the Handheld Market is their Ace, and they will not want to loose it (and the GBA is looking dated, and has had a decent innings anyway.)

One interesting point: will developers choose Sony, because Sony is probably the best Console Developer, or will they choose Nintendo, because they're the best Handheld Developer? - A Tough question for companies like Square-Enix for Certain...
