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.

They’d do one 5 euro note for the whole of Europe, and it’d cost 10000 stars.

Heh, yep, and it'd be gone before anyone had a chance to get it like usual.

"Stuck at work at 9p"
Posts: 2
Can anyone help me on this. I am stuck at work and bored out of my mind. I need to find out the answers to the following:

Where is the Gamecube made? Japan somewhere I guess?
Where it is shipped to in the US? Is it Redmond/North End?
Where can I find this sort of stuff out from?

Help a guy get back home!

Cheers guys.

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