I'd say if you have a digital camera already then the GameCube, if not then the camera watch.

yeah, i have a digital camera that is like 6 years old.. but it still has about the same amount of megapixels as the watch - but my camera holds about 82 less pictures..

this would be good for... evil things :wink: :wink: nudge, nudge.

i have to order the camera from europe or japan.

the gamecube would be less money.. and i can buy it from a local store....

I'd have to say Gaemecube... Smash Bros Melee and Mario Sunshine are loads of fun, plus lots of kick-ass games are coming out (Star Fox, Zelda, Metroid, etc)

yeah, mario sunshine was the main reason i was going to buy it... i like simple games that you can just walk around for no reason... thats why i liked pilot wings 64.. soft music, slow action.

we need a game like that for ppc.. just soft, simple exploration/simple objective... with jazz like music

Super Mario Sunshine is NOT an explore game as much, it's VERY hard.

Go for the camera watch, if it's as good as your digital camera.

hmm.. i don't like hard games....
i would like a game where you just walk around.. exploring.. like i did with the jetpack on pilotwings 64.. with the camera function.. a very large area, many easter eggs, soft 'romantic' music.

i don't know, i just like to immurse myself in worlds, thats why i love online rpgs.

now, about the camera.

well, the camera is like only 1 megapixel, no removable storage.. and pictures can only be downloaded with ir.. which my pc has not.. and it is only usable with MIPS ppc's at this time.

neahh... you have to buy a usb ir adapter.. its about 50 usd.

its funny how much i like exploring.. you should see how many software engine demo's i play with.. just to walk around..

i'm actually going to release a 3d relaxation game sometime next year.. so i'll tell you about it more later.. i'm trying to get R0B to help me on it.

Hey, maybe you could use the Torque engine, it's dirt cheap, and is great with natural environments. They added TONS of features that I don't see new games have, however I don't know if you'll have access to that with the engine.

$100 for the engine licence.

Not to mention it's great with outdoor areas.

hmm.. that would be cool.

have a multiplayer game with no objectives.. just a text and sound relay system.. where you can walk around....

nobody would buy it, but i would enjoy it.
