Though it looks like a toy, don't be fooled: the Nintendo GameCube is a powerful video game console that rightly deserves its place among the other next-generation game systems. In fact, its playful, appealing design and small size (the unit is a not-quite-cubed 6 inches) aren't the only features that set it apart from the others. For starters, Nintendo has quite clearly made this a game-only machine. It doesn't try to play your CD collection, run your movies, read your e-mail, or store your MP3 files. The company has concentrated its efforts on games. All the prelaunch titles we've seen play smoothly, with bright, fast graphics and great sound. Nintendo says its engineers have removed traditional bottlenecks that have, in the past, slowed down processing. New components designed by IBM and MoSys, as well as a large-capacity secondary memory cache, keep instructions moving through the system's microprocessor (MPU) at peak levels. Less

Pros Excellent Gameplay, Fun, Good Value
Cons nothing
Recommended it? Yes

Game cube is fun and addicting. The graphics aren't as great as on the newer game systems, and the new trendy games like rock band aren't offered for game cube, but it is fun for playing more classic video games, and kid friendly. Read full review »

Pros Fun, Good Value, Fun To Play
Cons Poor Graphics, Bulky, Requires additional purchases
Recommended it? Yes

When we first got this, when this was the "new" system out there, it was awesome and very advanced.  Now there have been another 2-3 systems since then, so naturally it pales in comparison.  However, there are still tons of great games out there for it and it is very fun! Read full review »

The lovely Dsi

byemy123raquel Jul 28, 2011
1 Helpfuls 2 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros A very fun, entertaining piece of equipment with many activities.
Cons The product is sometimes too or not enough sensitive on the touch screen pad.
Recommended it? Yes

The Nintendo DSi is quite a creative, yet original piece of equipment. Although the DSi has a camera and microphone the themes and options are very much the same as the Wii, yes this is expected that they are to be alike because of the equally same manufacturers and such but they are a bit...
