The public opinion is that the Gamecube was never in the same league with either the PS2 or the X-box. So, it was natural that this notion would bleed over into the next-gen console rumors.
In every article I read, be it on the internet, on television, or in a magazine, the consensus seems to be that the Revolution was going to be the slow kid in the class. I mean, even Nintendo themselves said early on that the Revolution wouldn't compete in terms of hardware with the PS3 and the 360. And this was the argument, at least from what I've read, for not waiting to buy the Revolution first. It would probably be the last console to be released and it was going to be a lesser machine, so the money could probably be better spent on a PS3 or 360. Arguments all based on the assumption that the Revolution would be the lesser of the three machines.
I just found it interesting that this might not necessarily be the case.
