What is a GCN?

Is it a Game Cube?

Does GCN = Game Cube Nintendo?

Why isn't it NGC; Nintendo Game Cube?

???????????????????????????????????????

I get tired of all these L337 video game acronyms floating around.:(

Yeah, GCN is GameCube.
They call it GCN instead of just GC to distinguish it from the Atari GameCube.
And NGC... Well, we can't have people confusing the Cube with a Non-Geosynchronous Carp, now can we?

And then there's AGB...

Isn't the NGC an orginazation? If so it would make more sence to call it a GCN rather than confuse it with the orginzation.

Nintendo requested to call the GameCube a GCN, I guess "GameCube of Nintendo"

I dunno why :shrug:
