    I think when the Wii is released they will stop making GameCube games,and switch to that platform.

    I think Zelda is the last GC game left. And that's being designed for both GC and Wii, as a final farewell for Gamecube owners, a wonderful Hello to Wii owners, and a stepping stone between them.

    I think that when the new console come out you will have just a couple of title comming out like zelda but then to bad for the one who have a GC becase nothing new will come for it.....Its to wonder if sony will do the same for the playstation 2 when the PS3 come out

    Even though nothing new is coming to it, it's still a wonderful console to have. Although, that doesn't mean much since the Wii can play GC games anyway... Anyway, there are still quite a few games finishing their development cycles, so it won't be gone as soon as you might think.

    A bit off topic, but the PS2 will probably see quite a few releases even after the release of the PS3. I remember seeing numerous games being released for the PlayStation years after it was considered "dead." Then again, they were mostly, if not all, third party releases.

    Well, you have to consider that the PS2 has a 60 Million installed userbase, while the PS3 isn't going to have more than 3 million by the end of this year, under the best of circumstances. And a lot of people aren't going to be willing to spend $600-$700 for 1 or 2 games.

    The gamecube, however.. it just doesn't have many people left, developing for it. There isn't a big list of games in development and there isn't a whole lot of hype. With Zelda going to the Wii, any developers still working on games would probably rather spend another month or so of development time to have it there with the system launch, as a "Me too!" release.

    a few left but nothing to really get excited for (zelda and carbon are going to be great but theyll be better on Wii). A little after Wii is realesed, tehre will still probably be some movie based games coming out.

    I believe they will still make GCN games after they release the Wii, Micro$oft (and other companies) still make XBox games, they just don't make as many as they used to of course.

    Eh. I'm just gonna get a Wii and probably give my Cube to a friend or something. Haven't actually played it in months(hasn't been anything particularly worth playing, since my only method of playing backups would be to stream, and I grew tired of THAT from trying to play games like Metroid Prime 2). Not like I won't be able to continue enjoying the games I already have, on it. :)
