Up Close And Personal With The Nintendo Gamecube

from the the-other-gaming-platform dept

Stephen writes “Futurelooks has an exclusive, up close and personal preview of the Nintendo Gamecube! We’ve held it, fondled it, played it, poked at it, and previewed all of the seven titles that will be launching with it this November. Sound tasty enough for you? Here’s a clip: The first phrase that comes to mind when we think about the GameCube is “Resistance is futile”. The GameCube literally looks like a miniature Borg cube in smoked blue. At roughly 5? squared it certainly is the smallest of next generation consoles coming to the market. It even has a convenient handle on the back that almost boasts a certain ease of portability that neither PS2 nor the table sized Xbox can say. From the specs provided by Microsoft, the Xbox is about as portable as your average home PC. GameCube on the other hand could quite easily fit in a nylon lunch sack.”
