CaptainRAVE Posted December 17, 2001 Share Posted December 17, 2001 Tokyo announcement indicates an earlier than expected release date for the GameCube in Europe. Nintendo has announced in Tokyo that the GameCube will launch in Europe in spring 2002, not autumn as recent rumours have indicated. Nintendo would only be as specific as April or May concerning the European launch of its new console, but it said to expect more announcements next month. Additionally, the Japanese publication Asahi Shimbun reported today that Nintendo intends to have 300,000 consoles ready for launch here. Shares of Nintendo have risen 63.4 percent since the September launch of the GameCube in Japan. Initial earnings reports from the company have indicated an increase in profits of 14.4 percent over the previous six months.
