You don't?! Why with your legendary love of platform games and lovable mascots one would think you'd be on the GCN's line up like stink on poop.

Dreamcast.

However, with the impending F-Zero and Mario Kart, I think I'm gonna have to cave and get one too. Not to mention there are probably another half dozen games I really want to get anyway (Metroid, Soccer Slam, etc.).

The GC has a good lineup, and I never regretted buying mine on launch day, but I'm annoyed about a couple of things.

For one, GB Player is only available in black in the US. I like my purple GC and I'd like the GB Player not to look ridiculous underneath it.

Furthermore, I bought the game thinking I'd play all my multiplayer games on it... and then we discovered LAN Halo. That put an end to that. Nintendo has been ignoring online gaming, and they're just now allowing LAN functions with the broadband adapter, in Mario Kart and perhaps a few other games. A friend of mine talked about Zelda: Four Swords LAN games with the GB Player today, and when I thought about the logistics of it, I don't think it could ever work. Where do you find 3 other people who have a GameCube, a GB Player, the near-useless network adapter that's only good for one game so far, and a copy of Four Swords? Considering you can only have one person per GC that way, it's not easy. While, on the other hand, my friends and I have planned a 16 player Halo match this weekend, and the only problem we have now is finding ethernet cables long enough to connect all the Xboxes at the TVs in the house.

And I'm still disappointed about Mario Sunshine not being the Super Mario 64 followup that I wanted. It just doesn't seem as much fun to me.

But yeah, it did feel good to be able to walk into Best Buy and walk out with Ikaruga. I was afraid a game like this would never see a decent-sized US release.
