Gamecube On Track for 2001 Launch 11-1-01 15:36


Well, let's hope so, eh?
Apparently, an American spokeman for Nintendo has stated that Gamecube is well on track for an October 2001 release, which is brilliant news indeed. It stands to reason, then - should this be more than the usual meaningless PR nonsense-talk - that Gamecube definitely WILL make a July 2001 Japan release. Let's hope we'll be seeing Mario, Link et al in next-generation form over in the colonies this year, then...

Previous trends have shown that most consoles released in Japan then wait 6 months for release in USA, then another 6 months before hitting Blighty and the rest of our European cousins.

So we are looking at the fall of 2002. Which, funnily enough, is what I saw on a site only the other day. The earliest release ever surmised by the gaming press was, I believe, around Spring 2002. Recent reports have suggested quite convincingly that this will now move to Autumn-ish.

Time, as I often say, will tell.
