The cornerstones of the line-up are the launches of two of the most wildly anticipated exclusive GameCube titles, Metroid Prime (Nov. 1<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/glasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> and Capcom’s Resident Evil 0 (Zero) (Nov. 12). But these games are only a start. Before New Year’s Eve, older players will see their favorite game genres flooded with titles featuring traditional and extreme sports, racing, fighting and first-person-shooters, building the GameCube library to a total of 180 games by year’s end. <br><br>"Nintendo has always delivered innovative, high-quality interactive entertainment, and it's only logical to see them more aggressively push to increase their appeal among an older audience," says Jerry Madaio, vice president, merchandising, Electronics Boutique. "Standout titles like Metroid Prime and Resident Evil achieve that goal." <br><br>"For more than 20 years, Nintendo has justifiably earned its reputation as the only company capable of creating hit games for all ages, across all cultures," says Peter MacDougall, executive vice president, sales and marketing, Nintendo of America Inc. "But this fall, GameCube owners will find that same emphasis on top-quality and riveting thrills inside games with decidedly more mature environments."<br><br>Aside from Metroid Prime and Resident Evil, Nintendo also released the exclusive, psychological thriller Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem in June. Among the upcoming GameCube releases through the end of the year are: Star Wars: Bounty Hunter from LucasArts; FIFA 2003, Knockout Kings 2003, Medal of Honor: Frontline and James Bond: Nightfire from Electronic Arts; Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon from Ubi Soft; Die Hard Vendetta from Vivendi Universal; X-Men: Next Dimension and Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 4 from Activision; Batman: Dark Tomorrow from Kemco; TimeSplitters 2 from Eidos; Sega Sports: NHL 2003 and Phantasy Star Online Episode I & II from Sega; Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance from Interplay; Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance from Midway; Black and Bruised from Majesco, and many more.

'Bout time nintendo got off it's dead ass and starts gettin' busy! N64 only had a few entertaining games to it, so I'm glad to her that the Game Cube will kick it into overdrive!!!!!! <p></p><i></i>
