Yeah, it's belated, but we gotta wish our brutha' a Happy Birthday

As I was reading a batch of daily reader comments at Nintendorks yesterday, I stumbled upon a fix for a problem that has been plaguing one of my controllers since I played Pikmin. The problem, as some of you know, is that the B button and sometimes the other three action buttons get stuck into the... Read more...

A real quick easy way to wish all of you a very happy holiday season without sending out cards and junk! We're cheap bastards! Are we going to slack off and ignore you for 2 weeks? Hell no ho ho!!!!!

As you read this, I have just arrived home for the holidays, as has the rest of the staff of Planet GameCube. Our company Holiday party was a complete success. Max threw up on Santa, Ty made all the Reindeer write trivia questions, and Dragona kicked Tony Hawk out of the party because he was “wrong”. Good times were had by all. But now we’re off spending the holidays with our respected real families.

Though the details aren't all there, the GBA will be online in 2002... but not with Nintendo.

The Internet is all abuzz about what the company Christmas card sent by Rare is all about ...

Games Radar has gotten a hold of Rareware's company Christmas card, and it's set the 'Net on fire with what it could possibly mean. All we know for sure are the facts.

The card is a take on the classic "Twelve Days of Christmas" theme, starting with "4 elements of power." The art is a pretty clear indicator of an upcoming GameCube title, "Kameo: Elements of Power."

Maybe not, but Nintendo will be using GBA for interactive trivia games in Japan.

In a partnership with the Nippon Broadcasting Corporation (NHK), Nintendo NCL plans to use the GBA in a whole new way. By connecting the GBA (with a specific game pak) to the Internet, Japanese GBA owners will submit answers to televised trivia questions for an scored evaluation. No further details about the system's versatility or trivia content have been commented on, but if done right the software could prove to be quite popular.

Shiggy's going to Vegas! Word! After so many days of cute Pikmin, it's gotta get to you. Drinks and gambling for everyone! Kidding. More info. inside...

Rumors still abound concerning on just what Enix is thinking.

UPDATE: We apologize for this story having been published as a NEWS item. It was clearly a rumor, but a database problem posted it as news. We're going to try to rectify it, but the following is indeed a RUMOR.

So you've ordered our E3 or Japan Experience videos from us. We need to know what you think!

If you've ordered our E3 2001 or Japan Experience 2001 video, we want to know your thoughts. We're putting together a little special deal, and if you've viewed these videos, please send us your thoughts!

Here's some of the things we are looking for:

1. What did you like about the video?

The industry's voluntary ratings organization has inadvertantly confirmed Line Drive Baseball from Sega...and it's coming to GameCube.

A sharp eye at SwirlVision has discovered a listing for Sega's Line Drive Baseball at the ESRB website. The listing can be found here.

The information in this listing is literally all we know of the game, because Sega has yet to officially announce the game or mention it at all. However, it's worth nothing that Line Drive Baseball isn't listed for any other systems at the ESRB site...just GameCube.

The guys at Famitsu have published their latest round of reviews. Any good games coming out soon in Japan?

GBA continues to impress as more and more hits are published. Thanks to TEH WINDEY DALE's observational skills we have a list of Famitsu's scores. Though many are just mediocre (as expected), a few Japanese gems stand out in the pre-Christmas GBA onslaught. Below are most of the Japanese games.

Yes indeedy! With a similar (but more difficult to reach) modification, the Panasonic Q can play your U.S. GameCube games!

The Q has shipped in Japan, and it didn't take long for various sources to crack it open and attempt to modify the unit to break down its territorial walls.

The Q is much more difficult to open, but not impossible. The actual modification is applied in the same way as the standard GameCube unit.
