GameCube: The Next Generation
Nintendo has announced that it is developing the next-generation GameCube console.
"Our machine will be ready at the same time as the other new consoles," said Nintendo spokesman Yasuhiro Minagawa.
But, he added "We're not sold on developing powerful microprocessors to create graphics that cannot even be viewed on existing televisions."
Minagawa's comments allude to the fact that Sony is developing a superprocessor, codenamed Cell, to power the successor to the latest PlayStation, while Microsoft plans to use three 64-bit IBM microprocessors for the next version of Xbox.
