Gamecube sales went up big time...but they're still behind XBox and way behind PS2. Nintendo is offering a free copy of GOTY 2002 Metroid Prime with the system, sells for $50 less and it still can't catch Xbox.

Also interesting to note that these sales figures seem to differ from the earlier ones posted. 4 Xbox games beating MP in sales, for example.

I can explain the discrepancy between the numbers (while not actually numbers) this list is organized by the amount of money each game brought in, not the number sold, so well there were more Metroid Prime and Mario Party 4 sold than Xbox games, they were given away and only charged $.01 for each, the rest of the difference is made up of people who actually brought the game.
