and...
this analyst has no idea what she's talking about. i dont' even know why they pay people to make statements like these.
she doesn't even know the difference between the GBA and the DS. in the article it says that the Gameboy would get Cisco into the mobile handheld market...so yeah.. nintendo will definitely not be bought out by cisco...especially since they're doing so well in japan, and are releasing their new console later in the year. i've heard good things about it. at least they're trying to do something new while sony and microsoft keep going down the same old path.

indeed
the gamecube is in last in terms of sales in the US. but with the GBA and the DS, they've sold much more systems.

Xbox is far behind both the gamecube and ps2 in japan, with the ps2 being in the lead in console sales...(due partly, i think, to the fact that the ps2 was poorly manufactured and people still go back to them to get a replacement system. i was done with them after my ps2 mysteriously stopped reading most discs.)
anyway...now, nintendo is doing very well in japan. 9 out of the top ten best selling games right now are nintendo games. and 7 out of the 10 are actually published by nintendo.
the gamecube gets so little attention in the US cause gamers here are stupid! they have no idea what makes a game good. they'll buy anything...which is why a game like "25 To Life" is on the top 5...for both the ps2 and xbox. the game got horrible ratings but i guess they'd rather play garbage, then risk their dignity by playing nintendo made games, which in their opinions, are for kids.
