Cubed3.com Wrote:Nintendo Rumour | Portable GameCube and Wii Release Confirmed?
IGN publish info, pull it and then 'correct' themselves...
Gaming site IGN have apparently made a rather big error and published information that should have been kept a secret. Last night, the Murdoch owned media giant ran a story on its Wii channel detailing several pieces of juicy information. Whilst it was strictly outlined as rumour, IGN soon pulled the story, only to repost it a few hours later with some rather drastic changes. However, the Internet being the beast that it is, someone over at NeoGAF took a snap of the article before it was changed, highlighting some exciting possibilities.
...
One whole paragraph was removed from the article, it stated the following:
Insiders claim to have seen final hardware. The Broadway CPU is allegedly in the 750 CL line, a continuation of the 750 GX series. IBM may be working on a revised Broadway chip with a lower clock speed for a future Nintendo handheld -- one that presumably plays GameCube discs.

...
So basically, confirmation of a portable GameCube it would seem. The report has to have a fair bit of truth in it or IGN wouldnât have pulled it, clearly the source was worried that the information in that paragraph would unveil their identity and asked for it to be removed. Whatever the case, it provides material for some rampant Internet-style speculation. So donât disappoint, and respond away...

How interesting if true! And if true, i guess it means we would also get PSO portable too as everyone is always moaning about! Lol!

A portable Gamecube would be the best thing since the NES came out. But wouldn't it use too much battery power. You might have to charge it every 10 hours.

Who knows what Nintendo can do with batteries by the time they get around to releasing the GameBoy Cube! Knowing Nintendo's innovative streak, it'll probabily run off of something that's been compiled out of a yoghurt pot, some stickyback plastic, and an emtpy loo roll, and somehow manage to generate a never ending power supply that'll last forever!

They could have Dr. Ventrue make the power device.... but then the Gameboy Cube will be powered by the soul of an Orphan:S

I'm pretty sure that isn't going to happen, it's just a bad idea!
Besides, the only thing I've ever heard about it is from cubed3... I think that says enough :p
