Here is my Gamecube Poll
I got the following article from dailyradar that explains the
reason why the GameCube is shaped the way it is:
Nintendo's top designer Shigeru Miyamoto sat down with several
journalists to endure a barrage of questions at the Spaceworld
event in Toyko. Many of the more intriguing ones he couldn't
answer, (such as anything relating to launch titles for the
Gamecube), but he did answer a question about the Gamecube's
design. Click through for a transcript ...

Gamecube
News!
We wanted to put forward the image that this is something that
will be played by the whole family. It is not audio/visual
equipment that is placed somewhere and not moved. That is the main
concept that we wanted to push forward in making the design of the
console.
While Miyamoto's statement is a bit unclear, it appears that
Nintendo envisions the Gamecube as a device that can be moved
around the house with ease whenever someone wants to play, much
like a board game or a deck of cards. The handle on the console
solidifies this image.
We wonder how many people will want to transport their Gamecube
from room to room, but we respect the idea for what it represents
-- a new mindset when it comes to devices that provide home
entertainment for the masses.
. Warning! the virtual striker 3 picture is very big so it will
take a while to load like a lot of the game pictures so be patient
they do look good
A list of all the games i have heard of are here some are not but
will be soon.
The gamecube is very small
Analog stick on the left side for most of the games
movement.
D-Pad which is the 4 directional pad just below and to the
right of the primary analog stick.
Start Button in the middle.
A, B, X, and Y buttons with A in the middle (all are
believed to be analog).
The C (camera) analog stick below and to the left of the A,
B, X, and Y buttons
R and L buttons on the top (both of which are analog).
Z button just above the R button (not sure if analog or
digital).
This shows you how small the gamecube will be
Gamecube Controller next to a N64 Controller
Gamecube Is smaller in height than a GBC
The Gamecube use specially designed discs much more
powerful than the N64 cartridges
The memory Card
The memory Card adaptor will give you more space to save
The Digicard is a 4 megabit card to store game data. The
SD Digicard Adapter allows you to put a 64 megabyte flash
memory card into the adapter to save huge amounts of data.
Remember that there are 8 bits in a byte.

As you can see, you will be able to hook a number of GBAs
up to the Gamecube. Cool Huh!!!
Regarding this type of hookup, this is what DailyRadar
said that Mayamoto said:
Miyamoto said, "What do you US press people think? Do
you think this would be great for games like football
where each player can choose plays without the other
players seeing? Oh, wait -- I'm talking in Japanese, so
you don't understand me! Hello!" OK, that's
paraphrased somewhat from memory, but that's the gist of
what he said.
The Gamecube will use Two kinds of Modem Broadband Or 56k
they go into a slot at the back of the console broadband
will givw u much faster internet connections.
Gamecube Modem and Broadband adapter.
The black is the modem and the white is the broadband
adapter.
It uses radio waves instead of infared. I believe this
makes it possible for you to control it from farther
distances and also I believe that it make it possible for
you to control it without the Gamecube being in the direct
line of sight of the Wavebird. In other words, you should
be able to control the GameCube something solid (like
maybe even a wall) is in between the GameCube and the
Wavebird.
They say you can use the Wavebird up to 30 feet away.
The GameCube will also be able to hook up to your monitor
with a digital A/V cable. Some of the big HDTVs have this
input as well, so you'll be able to hook it up to the big
fancy TVs and get an incredible picture.
