Baldur's Gate is awesome, but I like Dark Alliance better. Hopefully they will do the same for the later games.

I posted this in the wrong section of the forum before (sorry).

Hi, I've been a paid subscriber here for 5 years now. I've dealt with the changes to the look of the site, I understand the need for change and growth. My only complaint about this change is that finding the "Add Game" button is frustrating. Maybe it's because I don't add games real often, or maybe I'm just getting old and crabby. Can we please just at least make it bigger, or easier to spot on the game page? I can't be the only one getting frustrated with this.

Thanks

[QUOTE="Litchie"][QUOTE="jeff16950_demon"]the gamecube doesnt need any new games, its you that needs a new consoleSprigain


I agree. Consoles die. The GC has. Deal with it.

agreed im sick of threads about this

Level 1 and you're sick of threads like this? Jeez, how many threads have you read in a short time? First of all, to say you're "sick of threads like this" is completely ridiculous. It's a forum, people write thier opinions and thoughts here. You don't like an opinion, you move on.

After reading through all the replies here, it's pretty obvious that there are a lot of different opinions on the subject. And finally, if the Gamecube is dead as such.... how is it that so many of you found this post? I mean, not meaning to offend or anything, but if its as dead as some of you say, it would seem to me you wouldn't care what was posted in the Gamecube forums. Just a thought....

Perhaps GC is dead... guess I missed the big headlines that stated such. Of course, most of my attention was lulled towards PS3 news and updates so it's not surprising if I missed this announcement that Nintendo abandoned GC. Someone posted for me to "stop whining and buy a wii". Man, I was FAR from whining, I posted something I was thinking about, nothing more, nothing less. As for the rest of you, perhaps I should go try the wii and thanks for your input :)

Of course not, but it sure seems that way doesn't it? Rarely anything new going on for Gamecube. I fugured the new Legend of Zelda game would have triggered more new titles or at the least, some new sequels. What do you think would liven up the Gamecube market? Here are my thoughts, please share yours :)

First of all, I think Nintendo would do well to try and get some re-releases done with some old classics from the NES. That would, at least, pull in some older fans of the NES. Would love to see some games updated like Metroid was (Metroid Prime is one of the best games GC has to offer.... my personal opinion mind you). I think it's awesome to see an old game remade into an updated version. The new Zelda and the two Metroid Prime releases have been a big hit, I'm sure the same could happen with a lot of other classics.

Second, Gamecube desperately needs a new big-name RPG game that would pretty much replace Final Fantasy (since that game has spread into all platforms and systems by now). The early Final Fantasy series were, by far, my favorite games to date. Especially FF2 from the SNES. But, since they've already redone most of the classic Squaresoft games, I say it's time to move on, start a new series. Something exclusively on Gamecube, maybe adding network capabilities.

Third, how about some adapters that allow you to play your older NES, SNES, and even Gameboy cartridges on the new system? One of the things Playstation has going for them with each new system they release is that all of their games from previous systems will play on the newer systems. This is a big 'plus' in my decision to purchase a new system.

Final thoughts... it's pretty obvious, from my post here, that I'm an older gamer. Many of you that might read this are more than likely much younger than I am, and probably won't quite agree with everything. But I think, even the younger gamers will appreciate some of these ideas. I'm not a Nintendo "fanboy" (as I've seen them called), I own every system all the back to the Atari 2600. But I appreciate the fact that Nintendo pretty much started the market booming with it's first system. I admit I didn't purchase the new WII system, I haven't seen anything about it that interests me (the new controller isn't all that exciting to me, personally). Perhaps I would feel differently about it if I gave it a try. Gamecube is a great system though, and it would be nice to see more done for it.
