EA is scalling back their gc support as well.
Scaling back yes, but it's not like the big name titles like Madden won't be coming out.

Exactly, GC will still get Madden and Live and NHL but other then that nothing is for sure.

damn too bad... my bro in law got NFL 2k3 for the GC for christmas and its so much better than madden.

Side Question: anyone know if Nintendo plans on releasing a "greatest hits" library with first generation best seller games? I wanna play Rogue Leader but its still 40 bucks everywhere. I thought that game would be down in price by now. Was thinking of picking it up used for $20 but if they're having a greatest hits thing i'd just buy it new

Rogue Leader is $19.99 at EB I think. Last month you could get it for $10 after coupon.

Nintendo will offer the first three discounted GCN Player's Choice games next week: Pikmin, Super Smash Bros. Melee, and Luigi's Mansion. Each will sell for $29.95 U.S.

w00t! They are making another mariokart game? I can't wait.

And by the way, the reason I bought a gamecube is because I was in Seattle this summer and when I visited Nintendo of America, they have them there for $110. I have MOH Frontline, and I want to get Eternal Darkness, NHL 2K3, and Madden 2003 sometime in the near future.
