Here ya go peepz, feed on this!

NEWS PIECE 1:
Nintendo to up Gamecube production to around 1 million units per month, compared to 600,000 units per month at present. One major reason for this decision may well be the imminent European Gamecube release!

NEWS PIECE 2:
Marvel Comics hero, Daredevil, is to star in his own Gamecube game!
Another new game in development goes by the name of The Scorpion King: Sword of Osiris - based on the film of the same name (also in development).
Admittedly, neither of these titles are highly anticipated, but ya never know...

Albie out.

I seriously doubt that, as Nintendo's reputation is not on that line. And anyway, Joe Average isn't going to walk into a shop and say 'If I take the cheaper console, I'll look cheap'. He'll think 'One is £200, one is £300. Hmmmm..., I think ill get GameCube.'

The fact that it is miles better anyway is besides the point....

Look at point 1, I think this is mainly why Nintendo have delayed their console's launch date so much. Think of how big Europe is compared to the USA of Japan, they'll need millions more just to satisfy half of the European gamers!! So lets all be patient and we'll all get one.

I'm not really bothered by the second point as i've never heard of the cartoon untill now!
