Hell, my Gamespot didn't even bother having a display other than a few row saying "NGage, we have it if you want to waste your money"
I don't even think my Gamestop had shelf space for it, they had the games behind the counter. :D

I remember I played some Tony Hawk game on the N-Gage at an in store demo. It looked exactly like a GBA game, so I said, "What's the point?"

I remember wanting Tony Hawk for the GBA badly.  This time, I CAN say that the graphics matter.  It's not all that pleasant to look at while playing.

It sucks that an MMO based on leetspeak had to be on the N-GAGE.  :|

Not to mention you had to unscrew it to put in games
I still call Phantom as worst system ever. At least we got a good joke out of the ngage (TACOS!)

How is the GCN a failure? >:(
Anyway, I guess a Sega Genesis. I wouldn't call it a failure though. But out of every system I've owned, it's the worse.
YEAH

The GCN was a failure because it sold the least.

Um...the Genesis is better than just about every system other than the SNES, PS2, and possibly the NES (depending on personal preference).

GCN was a massive failure. Other than Metroid and Melee it had basically nothing on any of the other systems.

Well, I guess it's different for you. But I could name a lot of good games.
Yeah, it's not the best system, but it was fine enough for me.
YEAH

Not to mention lack of third party support (Capcom and Sega were the only ones to care), absolutely zero online (Sega made 1 game for online, that's it), and generally nothing origional (besides aforementioned Metroid)

Hey, if you are only going to have two third party companies supporting your system, Capcom and Sega are the ones to have.  :D


There were a few good new games like Pikmin, Cubivore, Viewtiful Joe, and Animal Crossing. Plus, the GCN had what is arguably the best Zelda game ever. It was just missing one thing. There was no GCN Pilotwings.  :(

WW is not the best Zelda game ever, and TP is a Wii game (it came out on Wii first).

Super Mario Sunshine?
Super Mario Kart Double Dash?
Super Mario Sluggers?
Animal Crossing?
Windwaker?
Twilight Princess?
Sonic Gems Collection?

Super Mario Sunshine? Worst of all the Mario platformers. Not saying it's bad, but compared to Galaxy and 64...it's just meh
Super Mario Kart Double Dash? Needed online for the Double to actually mean anything. But yea it was good
Super Mario Sluggers? shameless Mario spinoff. Golf is way better
Animal Crossing? Life-sim...need I say more?
Windwaker? Any game involving sailing and Tingle can't be that great.
Twilight Princess? Wii game
Sonic Gems Collection? Collection of old games
Please note I am trying not to blatantly lambast the Cube, since it isn't the worst system ever. Just a decent one. But when compared to the PS2 and Xbox it's flaws are really obvious

The GCN was a failure because it sold the least.


Selling the least doesn't mean it failed. Failing means selling horribly, which it didn't. N-Gage sold horribly.

You're an idiot.

Wow...you guys don't know failures.

GCN, that was 21 million, thats small compared to the PS2, but it's about equal to the amount the Xbox sold, so to call the GCN a failure is to call an Xbox a Failure....and Genesis was far from a failure....that was Sega's only successful console.

Here are some real failures.

-Atari 5200
-Atari 7800
-Atari Jaguar
-Atari Lynx
-Apple Pippin
-NEC PC FX
-Virtual Boy
-3D0
-CDi
-Neo Geo CD
-Sega Gamegear
-Sega Nomad
-Game.Com
-Gizmondo
-N Gage
