Welcome To Gamecube Universe
******Welcome to Gamecube Universe, your source for what's hot and whats not with the Nintendo Gamecube.******
Update 8/2/02
Very Busy
A while ago, I started to work on a new site. So I haven't been able to update this one. Everyone should head over to the new site GCUniverse.com
Update 4/17/02
Busy, Busy, Busy!!!
Sorry about the absence but the new Megaman section is taking way longer than I expected but I'll try to have updates up by tommorow.
Update 4/11/02
Possible Gamecube Price Change!!!
---From Reuters.com---
Reuters reports that Nintendo is fully prepared to lower the price point of the currently $199.99 Gamecube if Sony lowers the price of its PlayStation 2. The decision will be based on whether Sony drops the PS2 to $199.99 or $249.99 from its current asking price of $299.99. George Harrison, Nintendo of America's VP of Marketing sums it up: "Sony's expected to make the first move and then we'll see where we stand."
If Sony does make a cut it will likely be revealed at the upcoming Electronic Entertainment Expo in May. If both the PS2 and Gamecube trim their price, analysts (and anyone with common sense) expect Microsoft's Xbox to take a similar cut.

Back from Easter Vacation.
I'm back from my tiresome Easter Vacation. I'm still catching up from the week of headlines
that have passed so here you go.
--From Gamers.com--
Nintendo-Sega Colabo'
A Headline so great that it calls for a celebration. Sega and Nintendo will develop the new
F-Zero game called "F-Zero AC"for the arcade and "F-Zero GC" for the Gamecube. These two games will use Sega's concept of console to arcade fileswap which is taking your saved Gamecube memory card FZ files to the arcade to play and bring your results and other goodies back to your GC. THat means that you can probably use customized settings and ranks in the arcade and vice-versa. Sega's Amusement Vision studio(creators of Daytona USA) will handle the app.
This is a great day for Videogames.

Bomberman Generations Leads Argon's Library
--From Gamers.com--
A name change was the least Majesco - now officially named Argon - had to offer game fans today. At a touching and pastry-filled press event, the New Jersey-based company today showed off four impressive next-generation titles to an audience of approximately 30 game journalists. Majesco, which was previously responsible for handling marginal titles like Hercules for the Sony PlayStation and the Sega Dreamcast version of the arcade classic Q*Bert, will publish more than 20 game titles in 2002 for the PC and all next-generation game consoles.

Miyamoto in LA Times
Today's LA Times features an interview with Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto and Satoru Iwata, Nintendo's Director, General Manager and heir-apparent. The topic: how the company plans to differentiate itself from the competition.
Not much of it is "news", but it is interesting to see that online gaming isn't being completely dismissed as it has been in the past by the gaming giant.
