How are you measuring capacity cuz Nintendo usually does their own thing that sets it apart. Microsoft and Sony have virtually the same technology running it, Nintendo has a completely different engine.

For what it's worth, the GameCube is more powerful than the PS2. The PS2 was just more accessible to the general public due to doubling as a DVD player (at a lower price point than solo DVD players), and its initial head start led to it becoming the killer console of that generation.

The GameCube was kinda gimped by its small discs, and while it held its own for the most part, it did miss out on a lot of PS2/Xbox titles due to Nintendo not touching more controversial titles and disliking violence. Shit was still the second most powerful console on the market, and the hardware was solid - GameCubes can take a fucking beating, some folks dropped it off a building and it would still play with some finagling. Like yeah, it had more limited choice compared to the PS2 and Xbox, at least as far as some of the larger gaming trends at the time were concerned (FPS games and games geared more towards older teens and adults), but the hardware was solid.

The Xbox was the most powerful console, and had a lot of the best multiplatform releases of that generation due to that additional power. Microsoft going with PC hardware helped run more PC-geared titles on the console, and the PS2 arguably had the best 3rd party support in the game and some of the hottest first party titles as well. I would argue that it had a majority of the 6th gen Japanese releases as well, since Xbox has always sold like poison in Japan and Nintendo had a lot less going on than Sony did at the time - not to mention how companies like Capcom and Square jumped ship to Sony from Nintendo in the PS1 days.

But the GameCube gave it a valiant effort, and even if the Xbox had it beat, it did have some great hardware for the time. Even with its shortcomings, I think it's worth admitting that much.

It's portable

IIRC it uses like literally less than 10% of the electricity that either the PS4 or Xbone use

Go look at Doom and Wolfenstein 2, they look pretty damn great to me

Yes, within range of your PS4 and wifi, which is basically pointless.

I mean, it was more powerful than the PS2 and had the fastest processor out of the three consoles (although still a little bit worse than the Xbox in terms of overall power). It was the one time that Nintendo fans could actually boast in front of Sony fanboys.

Yesterday when the kids were napping I layed up in my hammock for a while and played Xenoblade 2 in the shade. It was nice.

The point is Nintendo fans was using graphics as means to say their console was the best ever. Now they can't even compare to Sony and Microsoft and they're now saying "Graphcsi doesn't matter". Can't beleive yall didn't see this coming.

Back in the day, Nintendo consoles were more powerful than competitors, and fans liked it that way.

Now, Stockholm syndrome has set in, and we get rereleases like Dark Souls that run 30 fps.

Back then graphics mattered far more than they do now. We've long since hit the point of diminishing returns with game graphics.

"Graphcsi doesn't matter no more"
