>launched a full year after the PS2
>its major launch title for that year wasnt a new 3D mario or Legend of Zelda, no it was fucking Luigi's mansion
>Luigi's Mansion was supposed to compete with the PS2 getting, DMC, Gran Turismo 3, Ace Combat 4, Final Fantasy 10 and fucking GTA 3, and to add salt in the wound that same year HALO released for Xbox
>Mario Sunshine would pale in comparison to Mario 64
>Windwaker was so hated Nintendo had to do a complete 180 for Twilight Princess and make the game all grimdark
>Melee while a good partygame, created a lasting legacy of turboautists who cant let go
>missed out on all of the big 3rd party titles of the generation because Nintendo was this fucking autistic about piracy and paying licenses
>1gb minidisc vs 9gb DVD
>no N64 player add on, instead Nintendo just sells you the same games again
>Nintendo made no online games for it because they didnt believe in fucking online gaming
>no mature first party games, they sold all of their mature IP's with Rareware to fucking Microsoft
>and to top it all off, it looks like a lunchbox
this was supposed to be the generation where Nintendo learned from the N64's mistakes but instead they doubled down
if they didnt have the Gameboy line and Pokemon they would have gone the way of SEGA
