Default YEAH! Nintendo announcing Cube launch date next monday!

Nintendo Of Europe originally said in a press release that the GameCube launch date would be announced on February the 5th at the Millia gaming show, but now it looks like it's been pushed forward.

Strong industry rumors suggest Nintendo will now be announcing the date on Monday. In fact, Jasper Segers, owner of Dutchgaming.net claims Nintendo Benelux confirmed this to him.

A NOE spokesperson told Computer And Videogames that every rumored launch date so far has been wrong but despite that, the site is speculating April 5 and May 3.

Update: The webmaster of French GameCube site Nxtreme tells us that Nintendo France sent out an official e-mail which confirms that the conference and launch date will be happening on Monday. Not only that but NOE will be launching a website at nintendogamecube-europe.com tomorrow where you'll be able to watch the announcement live.

We can't wait!!
Yeah! This monday we will know when we Europeans will be able to buy a Cube! I can't wait!

From that French site:
Quote:

Alors que nous connaîtrons la date officielle de la sortie de la GameCube en Europe lundi prochain, beaucoup commencent à sortir leurs estimations et leurs sources (nous n'en finissons plus avec ces maudites dates) !

La date d'annonce étant très proche les fuites se font réellement ressentir , alors que nous gardons nos positions quant au 12 Avril 2002, Ryo, webmaster de Cubenation, affirme sur son forum que la GameCube sortira le 30 Mars prochain.

C'est un PDG d'une grande chaîne de magasins de vente de jeux vidéo qui lui a annoncé cela en précisant que l'arrivage de GameCube est prévu pour le 15 Mars, soit 15 jours avant la mise en vente de la console.

Mais ce n'est pas tout ! La date lui a été donnée mais aussi le prix qui devrait être de 260€ ! Un prix très abordable pour une console nouvelle génération et qui défit toute concurrence !

Pour renforcer cette date c'est ensuite Consoles France qui vient mettre son grain de sel en précisant qu'ils avaient annoncé, il y a de cela des semaines, que l'arrivage des GameCube se ferait le 15 Mars (cela est veridict ils l'avaient annoncé).

Nous pouvons aussi noter que cette date tombe 2 semaines après la sortie de la XBox dans notre vieux continent.

Tout pense à faire croire que ce 30 Mars est la date clef si tel est le cas nous nous serions trompés et nous vous dirons dans une prochaine nouvelle, si cette date s'avère vraie, la source nous ayant indiqué le 12 Avril 2002.

Cool, that price of €260 is pretty neat!

Same can be said about you

Well, that price in Euros equates to about £150, or under, which we know wont be the case over here in britain...
