America's top-selling home video game console is.. the Gamecube. Sold more than half a million systems to consumers during Thanksgiving week, easily surpassing its console competitors. And the GBA sold even more, over 600,000. Nintendo must be counting their profits this week.

Go-sen's US counterpart said: "We're overwhelmed by how successful we've been. We're tracking to sell more systems in the last eight weeks of the year than we did in the previous 10 months combined."

Optimistic news for Nintendo is never a bad thing. However it unfortunately just goes to show how utterly crap the Gamecube has been doing in the last 10 months.

Im opening up a share dealing account with the halifax, its only £10.50 per trade or something like that, so its quite reasonable.

We'll see...

Indeed I'm over 18 but not too sure it's clever for me to dabble in this just yet :)

A trifle over £49.10 per share, at current exchange rates. If you are over 18, you could get one. You would also need to factor in trading fees. And with it being a foreign share you may have some difficulty in buying it.

They fell nearly 3.5% today as well. I was pleased by the news that the GC was doing well, but it does not seem to be helping the financial performance yet.

It's on the Nikkei in Tokyo, not the FTSE in London.
