Sales of the Gamecube in both Japan and the US have flown through the roof: (Source C-Europe)

'Nintendo has sold a whopping amount of Zelda games for the GameCube!

In just a few days Nintendo sold a total of 407.700 copies of Zelda, which is an amazing accomplishment. Not only did Nintendo see a rise in software sales but also the hardware sales are going throught the roof!

Check out the Media Create charts of the week ending the 15th of December (Japan):

1 - Game Boy advance 241,600 (2,821,400)
2 - PlayStation 2 115,200 (3,357,200)
3 - Gamecube 67,500 (1,052,300)
4 - Xbox 13,400 (296,200)
5 - Psone 2,800 (213,300)

1 - The Legend of Zelda : Kaze no Takuto 407,700
2 - World Soccer Winning Eleven 6 Final Edition 336,500
3 - Pokémon Sapphire 180,600 (1,014,500)
4 - Pokemon Ruby 180,200 (1,016,000) 5 - .Hack Vol.3 96,000
6 - Guilty Gear PS2 74,900
7 - Clock Tower 3 50,000
8 - Mario Party 4 48,500 (414,300)
9 - Rockman Exe 3 47,800 (120,800)
10 - Gallop Racer 6 Revolution 44,800'

With Pokemon in the chart as well, and that being the fastest selling game of all time, I trully and firmly believe that worldwide, 2003 will be the year of the cube.

If its not, just look at the sales of the GBA and Cube placed together. Nintendo are some phat cats.

Also, Metroid and Zelda in North America have shifted the hardware sales beyond the XBox sales. It seems the XBox has gone for the selling of its XBoxLive kit to sell the console at Christmas, however is the 'online approach' simply a novelty thing that just costs money?

Holy chiwawa

XBox may be selling a couple of thousand more in the US and Europe, but the GC is seeling about 50 thousand more in Japan!

GC is well and truly in second place.
