The GameCube is now outselling the PS2 in the UK!
With the past week seeing price-slashed consoles and the release of a much awaiting AAA title, Metroid Prime, the GameCube has been flying off the shelves!
For the week ending March 22nd the GameCube has managed to sell 60% more than the previous week. PS2, Xbox and GBA all dropped by about 10-15%.
Nintendo of Europe´s PR agent Shelly Friend recently spoke about this issue:
"We´ve had a great week - GameCube sold around 14,000 units in the UK and on top of that Metroid Prime launched at number one in the all- formats charts. Now we´re just looking forward to the launch of GBA SP which we expect to be a great success."
This Friday sees the release of GBA SP in Europe so expect more high sales from Nintendo.
