Gamecube sales quadruple in the US

Citing figures from gathered from the largest US retail stores, they estimate that the little blue or black box has a whopping 37% of the market, compared to 19% just little over a month ago. If these figures are correct and confirmed then the Cube is bigger in the US than the Xbox !
"In a tough economy, we've found the sweet spot on pricing, and players are grabbing Nintendo GameCube systems off the shelves at the fastest rate since the console's debut," says George Harrison, senior vice president of marketing and corporate communications, Nintendo of America. "With an $80 price advantage over other systems and the impending launch of the mega-hit Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, this offer is just too good to resist."
And they do have a point there, because as we already reported a couple of day age (HERE), Nintendo hasn't reached its full potential yet because they'll be launching a special pack some time this month. The package will contain a GameCube, the excellent Mario Kart: Double Dash (preview HERE) and no less than 5 Zelda games !Lets stick around and find out what the figures for Europe will show.
