The GameCube could be heading online in Europe sooner than you think.
Swedish website AftonBladet has reported that the GameCube will be wired in Europe on 14th March 2003, incidentally the same day as the Xbox gets online on our continent.
Patrik Johansson, director at Nintendo's Baltic distributor Bergsala, revealed the date to AftonBladet reporter Henrik Rudin yesterday. Patrik also let slip about several 'in-house Nintendo-online titles' to be revealed early next year. We expect an official confirmation or denial from Nintendo Europe later today.
Stay tuned to Cube Europe for more updates soon.
