• It's Nintendo Day!
  Nintendo spouted off a variety of interesting news today, announcing that Gamecube sales had quadrupled in the US since last week's pricedrop, with 61k units being sold in 7 days as opposed to 15k each week all summer. It seems they liked that, as they also mentioned the imminent price drop from €199 to €99 (?79) in Europe which should spur another couple of thousand people to finally get the purchase over with. The company also had some bad news, dropping its first half projections from a profit of $117M to a loss of $23M due to losses in foreign exchange rates. That economy, eh?
