When is Gamecube 2 supposed to be released, and what is the official
name? What will it offer that Gamecube does not offer? Will it run
Linux? Can it be modded?

All the next-gen systems are still a long ways off. "Will it run
Linux"? What kind of a question is that? It will be a game system,
and will run whatever OS Nintendo constructs to efficiently use the
new hardware to run the games. And why do you need to mod it? It's a
video game system.

And, why did you post this to a 35mm photography group? I think you
need to take a time out from the Internet.

What I'm hoping they do is, make it so it plays the gamecube games. I
thought that was a smart move with the PS2 enabling it to play PS1 games.

Can never keep away from the classics I just wish they would've had
another mario like the mario 64, but of course mario 128, sunshine just
wasn't like the others.

Was this a deliberate mistake?

Nobody knows. Late 2006 seems about right. Will probably be more info on
this announced at E3

Nobody knows. Revolution is it's working name. Will probably be more info on
this announced at E3

Nobody knows. Speculation is rife about all the innovations that it may
include. Connectivity to the DS and/or GBE seems likely. Better graphical
capabilities is a given. Will probably be more info on this announced at E3

??? Are you kidding? Surprisingly, nobody knows but I'm sure somebody will
figure out a way to do it.

It is two years away from being released! It hasn't even been officially
announced yet! No-one could even begin to figure out if it can be modded! As
ever, I'm sure someone will figure out a way though once it's out there.
