But either way, good to see Mario Golf doing well, or seeing that there will always be GC fanboys faking sales data in means of propaganda.

they have random consoles like that, because they have not sold out their stock of them yet.
(you won't see Saturns there, unless it's rereleased, and that ain't gonna happen, unless Majesco......)
next time you see the Game Gears check to see if Majesco is anywhere on the cases.

Majesco bought the rights from Sega to rerelease the Game Gear a couple years after it had
died out. They rereleased it for $29.99, so it's probably even cheaper now. Rumor has it though, that
the Majesco version doesn't work with the TV Tuner. But then, how many people actually own a TV Tuner? LOL, I did.... (not anymore, sold it for 75 bucks credit years ago)

Post by: egman on August 05, 2003, 04:43:17 AM: The Mario Golf numbers don't surprise me. It's a very solid, polished fantasy sports title that has come in the middle of the summer game dry spell. Nintendo and Camelot couldn't have picked a better time to get this out the door.

Post by: Chode2234 on August 05, 2003, 06:05:57 AM: No kidding I have been seriously considering going out and getting it, just cause I want a new game, not because I'm a huge golf or Mario sports fan. I decided to rent it to see if I like it, not worth the $50, but a great game I will have to pick up on a deal somewhere. But a great time to release it to get a lot more people looking at it that might otherwise pass it up.
