thing about getting the short people in the house something to replace the n64

they don't play any gory or violent games (mom is adamant) - they like pokemon, beetle racing, zelda, etc.

i figure anything for the xbox will eventually be available for pc (and i figure my 1333 tbird/8500 will do a better job)

i like the nintendo because it uses a sealed cartridge and these kids are consituttionally incapable of actually putting a cd rom back in the case

thoughts?

I have no clue about any of them but this thread might help some.

Sounds like you already made up your mind on the subject... but for your kids and the games they like it sounds to me like the gamecube is the best option. No console uses cartridges any more tho so I think you're S.O.L on that one. good luck!

I have a hard time believing your rig will produce graphics as high-quality as the Xbox.
I'd say the Gamecube would be the best for your kids, though.

Id say gamecube aswell! seriosuly though, I had a 1.33 Tbird, 512 DDR and a GeForce3 and it had nothing on my Xbox........ Im really surprised too cause its on TV, but it looks AMAZING! I am VERY happy to have one!
