In the USA anyway....

Taken from Cube-Europe: -

"Nintendo will be giving out demo discs on May 25th in the United States. How this will be done (could it possibly be connected to the new bundle?), or what games will be included on this software is unknown.

This new marketing tactic will definetely help the growing number of people that recently purchased a GameCube in the States discover new games, thanks to the "Console and free game bundle" for only $149.95. The games available in this offer so far are: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Metroid Prime, Star Fox Adventures, or Mario Party 4.

Maybe this will be the start of a new policy by Nintendo that will permit magazines and media to distribute demo discs, a privilege that the other two next-generation consoles already have."

Wonder if NOE will release one in Europe?

NOE will never do anything as good as that. What they'll do is put an add in an obscure magazine, something like 'My Favourite Colour Toilet Roll Weekly' and then expect everyone to see it! As for a demo disk, Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha, What would anyone want a demo disk for? They'll ask? And that'll be that! And then when the Gamecube fails altogether in Europe they'll sit back and ask "What did we do wrong"?

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Wonderful...
... and so easy-to-use even for a technophobe like me. I had my website up in a couple of hours. Thank you.
