Now, I don't know much about the actual people playing the systems, but GCN seems to be portrayed (ALWAYS) as a kiddy system with kiddy games. Sure, alot of their games might be happier-looking than F.E.A.R or what have you, which is, IMO, a reason as to why there are so many ingnorant and childish people roaming the forums (because they are ignorant children). However, most of the people I know that like Gamecube are normal. Personally, I like Gamecube because the number of fun games far outweigh that of any other system. I don't care if it's freaking "Mario's learning playground" or what, but if it's fun I'll play it. XBox's controller has never been comfortable in my hands, even when it was scaled down, and playstation's controller just needs to die. Both systems have games that blatantly and outrightly copy Nintendo's games, and more often than not, Nintendo's games are still better. Fortunately, there haven't been many large-scale games that copy SSBM, one of my alltime favorite games of ever. Anyway, I'm rambling about what? I'll shut up now.
