Nintendo have announced that in Japan, the Gamecube wont be released til September, in the US, NOvember but the UK release of Spring next year hasn't changed as yet.

This is because Miyamoto is under a lot of stress to finish games quickly and he needs a bit more time to make them up to standards!

Doesn't bother me though!

I'd rather top quality games, than games rushed for release!

Although I'm all for quality in games being important, lets just hope this console delay doesn't turn the GC into another N64, leaving it too late for Nintendo to really compete with the others when they could have sold a lot more.

Ok you may not search the internet but i heard this on FOG and i've been gone a week, actually i'm only on for today so don't expect this to be permenant.

It has been delayed a whole month since the original deadline, a month not a year a month not a decade a month, with 110 games announced for the Gamecube already and it hasn't even come out yet!

With so many games in development a set of those will be ready shortly. If miamto hasn't finnished who cares Resident Evil 0 probably has, Dinosaur planet which will now include fox mocloud might be,and i've excluded over 100 possible titles that will be ready soon, in fact some might already be finnished.

So I wouldn't expect too many delays for the GC Nintendo no longer need to wait for the delay king Miyamto compared with the 64.

I've heard there are gonna be playable Gamecubes and GBA's with lots of games!

And I've also heard it's very exclusive, so only trust reliable sources for news about it!

I agree Edgy, i'd rather wait and have a load of quality titles on launch, than have the machine early with a load of mediocre games.


Besides, i've got loads of great games on my DC to keep me occupied until then!
