There are numerous sources that are reporting the same sales numbers. If this is true, this is totally unbelievable. The GBA is absolutely flying off of shelves. Whoever thinks Pokemon doesn't have the same impact as before needs a reality check.

According to Magic Box, the recent releases of Ruby and Sapphire have tripled GBA and GCN sales in Japan. Here is the exerpt:

Quote:
- In addition, due to the release of Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire in Japan, the sales of GameBoy Advance and GameCube has tripled over the week. Over 150,000 units of GBA were sold in the week, and over 37,000 units of GameCube were sold. The sales of PlayStation 2 remains steady, with over 38,000 units sold."
Nintendo would be stupid not be release a real pokemon game for the GC, as in a full 3D RPG, with online multiplayer options!

With Pokemon, Final Fantasy:CC, the other square game, Zelda, and numberous other big hitters, sales will surely pick up for the GC once more
