Saying the GC is for little kids is insulting to the mature adults that own and enjoy one, but you've never understood that and I don't expect you to now.

Exactly. This is why Trigger continues to start fights. He apparently doesn't understand the difference between things like this.

Saying the gamecube is for kids or "for babies" is insulting to those that own it. You might as well just call them babies.

This is far different from people saying the X-box controller is too large or that MS sucks because of their business practices. Those are just opinions on a controller and the company. They in no way reflect on the owners of the console.

I mean an equivalant to saying the "gamecube is for kids" would be to say that the "x-box is for PC geeks."
