Project Dolphin was the internal codename of the Nintendo Gamecube. Simple Tongue

Quote:Wikipedia:
[color=#222222]Partnering with Nintendo in 1998, ArtX began the complete design of the system logic and of the graphics processor (codenamed "[/color][color=#0b0080]Flipper[/color][color=#222222]")[/color][color=#222222][color=#0b0080][9][/color][/color][color=#222222] of Nintendo's [/color][color=#0b0080]sixth-generation[/color][color=#222222] [/color][color=#0b0080]video game console[/color][color=#222222], reportedly bearing the early internal code name of "N2000".[/color][color=#222222][color=#0b0080][10][/color][/color][color=#222222] At Nintendo's press conference in May 1999, the console was first publicly announced as "Project Dolphin", the successor to the Nintendo 64.[/color][color=#222222][color=#0b0080][8][/color][/color][color=#222222][color=#0b0080][11][/color][/color][color=#222222] Subsequently, Nintendo began providing development kits to game developers. Nintendo also formed a strategic partnership with IBM for the production of Dolphin's CPU, code-named "Gekko".[/color]
