Ya know, this has really gotten offhand, and I decided to stay away from it, but I gotta say... lots of people RENT games. That's what my little bro does (who has the Xbox). Even if they get 5 games to break even, there's is still no profit. Sure they'll gain a little and they'll try releasing more games, but they've kinda dug a hole by selling it for less then it cost to make it.
I personally don't think Nintendo needs another system, the Gamecube is perfect. While the PS3 might really cut into profits, I just don't want to buy another system.

LOL, to be honest i dont want anymore "proof" cos i cant be bothered to read any of that. Did you honestly read any of that, you must have a lot of time to kill.
my advise if you have time to spare, is to play on an xbox lol

They're all attempting to proove everything you said before wrong -- if you're not going to look at it, then don't bother to argue back. *Shakes head*

Thanks Suzakuseikun..
As most on these forums know.. I am not one to just post unsupported information.. and if someone wants proof i will show them.. I am also one that i will admit when i am wrong.. like Suzakuseikun has pointed out a few times in the past.. And i don't have to read all that.. its what Ctrl+F is for.. when i know its the Home and Entertainment division just search for that.. and just go to the Page #'s i pointed out you will see them in tables.. and anything in () is a loss.
