I think that is actually why Nintendo has now become known as the "Other" system. A lot of gamers have a PS2 and a Gamecube or an Xbox and a Gamecube. Simply because there are a lot of really simple fun games that any skill level can pick up and play and most importantly enjoy on the cube. It's the pefect balance against all the FPS or RPG games to have mario and zelda etc; to fall back.
The problem there at least for me is the metal gear factor. Games become so reliant on story and character that you have stopped playing a video game and are now in some journeyman rip of a lame interactive movie to the point where you are no longer attatched in any way to the story or characters. The story just pointlessly compounds itself.
