Exclusive: official UK GameCube sales figures revealed

We can reveal that in the UK, Nintendo have managed to shift an impressive 75,000 GameCube units since last Friday. Gamers also bought, on average, a little over two games with each console.

This impressive start for the GameCube bodes well for Nintendo’s European push and has eased the Xbox further out of the market, taking a firm grip on second place.

Interestingly last week, GameCube software outsold all other platforms, consuming 36.9 percent of the entire games software market.
