Ok i though i would make a new topic for you to put nintendo news in. Here is my news.

From Planetgamecube.com

NAL gives Australian gamers information on local the Game Boy Player price and release date.

PORTABLE GAMING ON THE BIG SCREEN

Melbourne, Australia, May 26th, 2003 – Nintendo Australia today announces the June 20th launch of the Game Boy® Player and commitment to the worldwide retail offer of the Nintendo GameCube™ home console and the new Game Boy® Player for the regular price of the Nintendo GameCube system.

This combination allows players to enjoy more than 1,000 Game Boy games on the home TV screen, along with the full library of Nintendo GameCube titles. This bundle will be available for a SRP$329.00 and the Game Boy Player will be available as a stand-alone product for SRP$99.95.

The Game Boy Player is a platform less than an inch thick, which acts as a base for the Nintendo GameCube. By simply inserting Game Boy cartridges into a slot in the Game Boy Player, consumers can use their Nintendo GameCube controller to direct action on the TV screen.

“This offer builds on the incredible momentum generated by our Game Boy® Advance line, which has already sold 35 million systems worldwide and sales of over 270,000 systems in Australia alone,” says David Yarnton, Director of Sales & Marketing, Nintendo Australia. “Once we saw the enthusiastic reception given to the debut of Game Boy Player on the show floor at the E3 trade show, it was an easy decision to move ahead with our plans to combine these two products for the Australian market.”

Nintendo Australia is riding a wave of momentum with dominating product launches this year. Game Boy® Advance SP, Metroid® Prime, The Legend of Zelda®: The Wind Waker™ and combined Pokemon® Ruby and Pokemon® Sapphire launches saw Nintendo take top spots on the charts with many retailers in Australia reporting sell-outs shortly after each launch.
