Someone at Nintendo of America will pay for this indignity.

Whilst reading the fine manual for my new GameCube, I came across the distressing fact that although I have access to an HDTV-capable projector, NoA has decided to make all of their GameCubes post-July 2004 without the port for the component video out cable necessary to display 480p on those games that support it.

More information on their "rationale" here. Evidently there is no chance that any current owners of GameCubes might keep them long enough for digital TVs to become ubiquitous, he said, looking at his MIB SNES in the corner.

Nintendo of America's decision to remove the component-out port from the GameCube earns them BlueDog's Official Bastard Motherfucker Award. Fancy graphic to be posted later.
