To a lesser extent they repeated it with the GameCube. Those little mini-DVDs are only 1.8GB. The GameCube was easily capable of playing the likes of Grand Theft Auto—it was significantly more powerful than the PS2—but those games came on 9GB dual-layer DVDs, so it was just never gonna happen. The reputation Nintendo had picked up for being the “kiddy console” probably didn’t help either.
