Aside from the imminent announcement due on Monday, news has leaked that the PAL Gamecube supports RGB output and the infamous 60Hz option.

Apparently, Nintendo of Europe are really pulling out all the stops to make the GameCube a success in Europe.

All I can say is, 'bout bleedin' time too.

Apologies though, can't post the link since it's prohibited, but take my word for it.

Wow. What fantastic news. I'd have thought it's gone without saying really.

Import GameCube doesn't output a true RGB signal, it output's one of those dodgy composite signals that makes the text on-screen rather blurry.

Good news about the 60Hz option as standard though...

Well, what console does support RGB????

Anyway, the 60Hz option is great... but will developers use it? The PS2 has it, but hardly any developers use it, and the DC had it, and almost every developer used it... what is the fate of the GC?
