Im not saying the Gamecube is only for little kids, Id like to have one myself to a certain degree. And im not saying that all games featuring childish cartoons are bad either. Hell,Super Mario Sunshine is one of my favorite games ever. But games like that just dont excite people . Sure Sunshine was talked about but Nintendo needs games that are super hyped. X Box has its Ninja Gaiden, Halo 2, Fable, etc. PS2 has more games than that that earn similar hype. What does the Gamecube have ?. The RE series ?, no wait you can get most of those on the PS2 as well. And that series is tired anyway. GTA ?, no thats on PS2 and soon X Box, not the Gamecube.

Sure games like Animal Crossing, Mario whatever, and Super Smash Bros, are good, they just dont sell or earn hype like GTA, Halo, etc. Thats what Nintendo needs, some super hyped original game (Besides Metroid Prime) that isnt based around a cartoon animal trying to restore order in his forest and save it from the evil Doctor Pollution (Just an example

). Those can be fun, but who wants to admit to playing them ? Much less buying them. Give me Halo or GTA over Animal Crossing any day
