That said, I'd recommend that anyone with young kids lean toward the cute and lovable GameCube. Nintendo has mastered that market, and by mid-December should have 20 titles ranging from new twists on old characters--Luigi's Mansion, a Mario spin-off--to Pikmin, the latest from Shigeru Miyamoto, the genius behind the Zelda franchise.

That nimbleness separates his business from large competitors. Maintaining a 1.3 million piece inventory in Los Angeles, he can quickly ship a rush order for 100,000 Ts.
