Gamecube Fastest Selling Console in History

 

According to Nintendo the Gamecube is the fastest-selling console in all of videogame history.  The Gamecube has sold more than a one-half a million consoles in it's first week out selling 50% faster than XBOX and 25% faster than PS2.  Luigi's Mansion has also become the most popular launch title in all of history beating it's little (but better) brother Super Mario 64.  The way things are going Nintendo can be heading for the grand slam.

inside joke to michael (my bud): hahahhaha i told u so

Here's a quote from NOA's Peter Main

"To have outpaced any other videogame console launch ever would be notable in its own right," said Peter Main, executive vice president, sales and marketing, Nintendo of America. "But to accomplish this under the current economic conditions is truly remarkable. There is a seemingly endless appetite for high quality, stay-at-home entertainment at an affordable price -- which is a perfect definition of Nintendo GameCube.  At a suggested retail price of $199.95, consumers can purchase Nintendo GameCube and two games for the same cost as rival, current generation game consoles alone. It's like getting two games for free," Main added.
