It appears Pilotwings, Nintendo's popular air-stunt franchise, may not see life on the Gamecube after all. Factor 5, the company developing it, has fallen behind in its production schedule and the title is not expected to be ready until 2005 now.

The "Gamecube 2" may be ready by this time and Nintendo may choose to use Pilotwings as one of its launch titles for the system.

I have never played the SNES or N64 versions of this game, but I have heard many good things about them. I'm sure this will disappoint many Gamecube owners.

I have played the N64 version, and yes, it will be a shame the GameCube will miss out on an installment from the series.

Both the SNES and N64 versions were great games; quirky, yet fun, and utterly unique. I didn't know an NGC version was ever in the works, but it's too bad that it got pushed off the plate.
