I'll agree with Old but I won't start a riot. The things that don't change about Mario are the reasons I quit playing. But if people like that, super to them, 'cause they're deffinitely getting what they want. I can't say I'm sorry for the GameCube. I own one. I have a few games. The only games worth playing on the system, to me, are multi-platform games. Games I could get on X-Box with better graphics and load times. I have Zelda, Mario, Metroid, all the ringers that I just can't stand. Yet the best GameCube game in my collection by far is Beyond Good and Evil. Something I could get on any system. There's a reason companies aren't backing the GameCube - People won't buy games for it. And there's a reason people won't buy games for it :/
