Nintendo Europe was recently proud to reveal that the European market share for Nintendo's GameCube console has recently doubled, going from 16% to 32%. The rise in hardware sales is directly attributed to the release of Pokémon Colosseum which launched to rave reviews across Europe on May 14, 2004 and marked the biggest launch for a Nintendo GameCube title this year.[br][br]European fans of Pokémon had reason to "catch em' all" as the game was being offered with plenty of extras. Pokémon Colosseum could be purchased alone with a free Memory Card 59, but fans looking for a bit more could purchase The Mega Pak. This special bundle contains a copy of Pokémon Colosseum plus a Nintendo GameCube, a Memory Card 251, a Nintendo GameCube Game Boy Advance Cable and the Pokédex Organizer, Pokémon Box - all for around 159 Euros. [br][br]It appears as though the Nintendo and Pokémon alliance shows no sign of slowing down in Europe as the total number of Pokémon games sold in Europe currently exceeds 25 million, with the hugely successful Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire(Game Boy Advance) having sold approximately 3.3 million in Europe last year. [br][br][br] [br][br]

Nintendo has continued its strategic move into the Chinese marketplace with the launch of the Game Boy Advance in Shanghai and other parts of the Canton province, accompanied by a localised version of WarioWare Inc.[br][br]The move follows the launch of a specialised Nintendo console designed for the Chinese market, the N64-based iQue, which arrived in China last November accompanied by a number of localised N64 titles sold on encrypted flash memory cards.[br][br]Nintendo's Chinese subsidiary, which is also called iQue, confirmed that it would be seilling the Game Boy Advance along with one localised game in selected parts of the country for 698 yuan - about 70 Euro. Although it has not officially been confirmed, it's thought that the game in question is minigame compilation Wario Ware Inc.[br][br]Game companies have traditionally been shy of the Chinese market due to the incredibly high levels of software piracy in the country; with Nintendo being particularly hard hit by the existence of rogue cartridge production factories in certain provinces.[br][br]However, as Chinese consumers have begun to spend increasingly on media, and the Chinese authorities have demonstrated more willingness to crack down on pirates, game companies have been forced to seriously consider the value of the market. Nintendo has been by far the fastest off the mark, launching the custom-designed iQue late last year ahead of an incredibly troubled roll-out for Sony's PlayStation 2 around Christmas time.[br][br]According to Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, China is a key priority for Nintendo going forward, and he hopes to enter the Chinese market fully - with the complete range of Nintendo hardware and software being launched there - within three to four years.

· Massive 8MB/64Mb GameCube memory card with built-in high speed USB port (USB cable supplied)
· Over 1000 blocks of game save data - 16 times the size of a standard GameCube memory card
· Run executable files on a GameCube
· A must have for the homebrew GameCube programmer
· Simply drag and drop PC files onto the MAX Drive Pro cartridge
· Works on any GameCube from any region
Max Drive PRO will be available during June 2004 , it is expected to retail at $39.99 in the USA market and £29.99 in the Uk.

Further information about the forthcoming Nintendo DS handheld has emerged just hours ahead of its official unveiling in Los Angeles - including what purports to be the first picture of the hardware, and details of some software demos.
The system is officially going to be called Nintendo DS at retail, despite earlier statements from the company which referred to the DS acronym as a codename, and not Nitro as had been speculated following the discovery of that name on a Nintendo developer website.
Like the GBA SP, it is a clamshell design, with one screen in each folding section - but it is significantly wider than the SP, with a D-pad on one side of the lower screen, and four buttons on the other side. The four-button design is a major departure for Nintendo's handheld consoles, which have always used two-button control layouts in the past.
Most interestingly, the lower screen is indeed touch sensitive, as was suggested by leaked specification information from Japan earlier this year. The system comes with a stylus for drawing on the lower screen, and one game demonstration apparently involves drawing clouds on the screen in order to slow the descent of baby Mario as he falls from the sky.
The system - which is slightly more powerful than the Nintendo 64, once again as suggested by the leaked specifications - has two game cartridge slots, one for Game Boy Advance games, and another for the smaller DS game cards. It also sports Bluetooth wireless networking technology for connecting DS devices together.
No details of pricing, or exact launch date information, has been revealed so far - this information may be forthcoming at Nintendo's conference (which takes place on Tuesday morning in Los Angeles, so early this evening European time), although the company has generally used this conference as a platform for revealing new software and technology, rather than discussing the nitty-gritty of pricing and launch dates.
Of course, while the systems are very dissimilar - and their price points are likely to be separated by over a hundred US dollars in difference - comparisons will inevitably be made with the Sony PlayStation Portable, which will be unveiled about two hours before the Nintendo device at a separate press conference in LA.
"I have not seen the PSP," Nintendo's legendary designer Shigeru Miyamoto is quoted as saying to USA Today, which provided the advance information by way of an early edition. "The screen, I believe, is bigger than a DS screen, and I am sure it will have excellent graphic quality... [But] the PSP will not be able to display anything that you cannot do on a current system... We want to do things that you could not do before. We are looking at the creative end."

A new edition of the Game Boy Advance SP modelled after the NES console is set to launch in Europe on July 9th, alongside eight classic NES software titles which are being released at a budget price point for the system.
Although the launch follows the arrival of the very successful Famicom Mini range in Japan (where the NES was known as the Famicom), the design of the GBA SP will be different - reflecting the completely different design of the NES hardware in Europe.
Also somewhat different is the line-up of software on offer, although there is significant cross over. The eight titles which will arrive with the NES Classic range are Super Mario Bros, Donkey Kong, Ice Climbers, Excitebike, Legend of Zelda, Pac-Man, Xevious and Bomberman - the first five being from Nintendo, followed by two from Namco and one from Hudson.
Each of the games will cost 19.99 Euro at retail, which is a little more expensive than their 2000 Yen price tag in Japan, but not significantly enough so for us to huff and puff about Europe being ripped off once more. We're not sure what the UK pricing will be as yet, but around £14.99 seems likely.

News about Nintendos new DS Console:
The DS will sell alongside today's Game Boy Advance, not replace it, according to the company. Nintendo has not announced a release date or price, though analysts predict it may sell in the $150 range.
One of the two 3-inch screens is touch-sensitive and works with a stylus — like Palms and Pocket PCs — to control the action in some games. In one demo, players guide a toddler-age Mario as he falls from the sky by drawing clouds. Other games give multiple views of the action.
The DS also has Bluetooth wireless communication to connect with other units within range for cordless competition. DS has separate slots for current Game Boy Advance cartridges and new, smaller DS game cards.

News From Lik Sang
It's out now in Japan, not arriving until August in the States and hasn't even got a firm release date in Europe. But with Action Replay for GameCube, you can play the Japanese version of Nintendo's fantastic Pikmin 2 on a UK console - and watch the cut scenes in English!
As you know, Action Replay's FreeLoader technology allows you to play ANY region of games on ANY GameCube, allowing gamers to play imports. Pikmin 2 is no exception - with Action Replay, the Japanese version plays just fine on a European machine. But while researching codes and enhancements for the game, Datel's dynamic code-cracking crew discovered something no one expected. The Japanese game contains English-language versions of all the cut scenes, even though English-language play isn't offered as an option. Rumour has it this was included so Nintendo could show the game in English at E3...
With these exclusive Action Replay codes, you can open up this hidden option and follow the storyline in English. Now there's no need to wait until August for the American version (and no European release date has been confirmed). Just grab an Action Replay and play it now, understanding every word!

Burgeoning consumer games expo Game Stars Live has signed up its first home platform holder, with Nintendo set to have a "major presence" at the five-day event which is to take place at London's ExCeL at the start of September.
Nintendo joins a growing list of exhibitors at the show which includes mobile platform holder Nokia and key publishers Electronic Arts, Activision, Atari, Eidos and Vivendi Universal.
However, as yet there's no word as to the plans of Sony and Microsoft - and while Game Stars Live's exhibitor line-up so far is impressive, there's a strong feeling that the "make or break" for the event will be which way Sony decides to jump.
For the past two years, the PlayStation platform holder has had its own event at Earls Court, the PlayStation Experience, which has run in the venue at the same time as the ECTS trade show. Whether the giant company - which has since successfully exported the PlayStation Experience format to the rest of Europe - will be prepared to subsume its own brand into the Game Stars Live event will be interesting to see.
Although Nintendo has committed to the Game Stars Live consumer event, the release announcing its intentions makes no mention of any support for the European Games Network trade event, which will be running in an adjacent hall of the ExCeL facility.
"Game Stars Live presents a major opportunity to get the greatest games in the world in front of games in the run up to the busiest sales period of the year," according to Nintendo UK general manager David Yarnton. Which games exactly the Japanese giant will be able to showcase should become clear after this week - when a whole raft of new titles for the Cube, GBA and DS are expected to be launched in Los Angeles.
