During its peak, developers can swallow it because they can expect some sort of a return on their investment. Not anymore. People tend to draw analogies between Game Boy Color/ Game Boy Advance and PS one and PS2. I think it is a fair comparison as far as the way third parties and perhaps consumers treats those two consoles. Historically of course, Game Boy is certainly very different from PS one. There are still a lot of people out there who play on those fat Game Boys with a pea soup screen (as Geoff puts it) Dexter Vi On wrote: > It does seem there's a big half a year game from N64 to gamecube > where Nintendo doesn't release anything.
