What am I on about?
Well I'm talking about their unwillingness to give us Brits a definite release date, and letting these rumors of a delay until next summer run rife throughout the world!
I've been a big Nintendo fan all my life and I still am! I just want a Gamecube, and I want one NOW! NOT next summer!
What do Nintendo think they're playing at? Do they really think that they're going to do as well as they possible could if they continue to disappoint the European gamers with constant delay and no information about release dates!
So many people who were definitely going to get Gamecubes have been saying to me that there now going to get PS2's cos there've given up waiting for Nintendo! I'm starting to feel this way myself, and I HATE IT!!!
Why am I having these feelings of VAST annoyance at the big N? Because they don't seem to care about us over here AT ALL! It's just getting REALLY annoying now!
I'm not going to turn to the Dark Side and get a PS2 though! {Don't worry} Yes it's an ooooooooooooooook console. But there's really no games on it that I REALLY want to play. All the games I REALLY REALLY want to play are coming out on the Gamecube and I want it ASAP! So NO! I'm not gonna degrade myself and splash out on a PS2! I'm just gonna wait for Shenmue 2 to come out, and just play all me old games again {or play all these cheap 2nd hand game Iíve been buying } , in wait for that MAGICAL day when the Gamecube is FINALLY released in the UK!
I'm getting really tempted at the moment to just go out and splash out on a GBA! With this huge delay of the GC I think I might have to get one to pass the time. I just find it quite annoying that the prices of the games for that match the price of games for other consoles. And most of the games I've seen for the consoles are just ports of old games! Grrrrr-Arrrrrgh! Why Nintendo, WHY?

Yea, the only reason Ninty haven't confirmed is they don't wanna give a date then find they need more GCs so have to delay (P@$*ing people off even further). This would also re-enforce the 'Delay' image of Nintendo that they are trying to shake off.
I really doubt that the release will be delayed until the summer!
Nintendo haven't given any reason for this change to the UK release, and I can't see any reason for them wanting to have such a HUGH delay!
:)
{It's comming out in March people}

But for the UK release I think Nintendo will announce a date wich will not get changed, I hope so any way, unless it gets broght forward!
Hmmm..... that's what Nintendo did with the US release, but then it but the release back to about 10 or 3 days after the X-Box's release!

They'll probably release it just before the X Box now that Microsoft have announced a release date for their console.
Well i think it'll be out before Easter!
You can hold me to that statement!

There are four seasons and 12 months; that's 3 months per season. Okay, so it's not that rigid, but it averages out.
I think most people would agree with...
Autumn: September, October, November
Winter: December, January, February
Spring: March, April, May
Summer: June, July, August
Which means that "spring" could be as late as the end of May.

u missed the point...
Not even ninty have been as specific as sayinh march.. they have just said "spring". The fact that this is non specific leads to the likelyhood that the console will be delayed until "Summer"... which is far from MArch isn't it!
