It seems that every Nintendo fan's best mainstream media friend has been spotted once more, spreading the love the Big N so desperately needs...

While it must be acknowledged that the Nintendo bashing articles that were seen so much about a month ago seem to have cooled here comes our boy Steven Kent again talking up the Big N in a mainstream publication.

To get a feel for this piece one has to look no farther than the opening paragraph:

Despite the rumors, Camelot has confirmed that the "secret" page is nothing more than a fluke.

According to Camelot's latest web update, the secret "Coming Soon" page is nothing more than a vestigial page from the Mario Golf 64 unveiling. I guess we all just got our hopes up for nothing! D'oh!

Getting one of these suckers in the mail really gets you all fired up. PGC is about to take on E3. The badges are arriving!

Go out with some friends...it's Saturday you know. Do a little W00T W00T dancing an shiz with the ladies. You know...PGC style. Dragona...picture Ricky Martin. Word!

So I get home, open up my mail box....and just like a Rap video with helicopters or yachts...the gift from the heavens arrives...

If you're one of the older fellers here and had an Atari 2600...or have played it, you gotta see this.

As being one of the older folks here at Planet, I embrace the classics. Especially the Atari 2600. My first system. I'll take anyone in Pac-Man or Space Invaders. You gotta use the reset button multi fire cheat! I could play Donkey Kong for hours. A little switch from an N64 or a GBA for that matter.

The best-selling point-and-click adventure is coming to Nintendo's handheld. Check out these graphics!

Thanks to the scoop by IGN Pocket, we now know that this gorgeous game is being ported to GBA. It will retain its pre-rendered backgrounds and animation-style sprites, and presumably the dialogue is still there in either text or voice, but not much else is known about the game just yet. We've gone... Read more...

Your local Toys R Us could have a GBA or two all ready for you to play Mario Advance as you are reading this!

Collectively all 6 of Planet GameCube's readers have just blazed away on their razor scooters.

Another interesting thing this story mentioned was that Toys R Us isn't doing presales. Supposedly because of prior PS2 issues. Get ready to camp out at your local Toys R Us...that is, if you haven't pre-sold your GBA.

Shining Force coming to a GameCube near you? Ahh...the suspense!

Interesting enough alone. Max said it looks like a golf ball on a tee. But what I didn't understand was why it was next to the hole. I think it's something else.

But this is where it gets more interesting. If you check the source code to the page it looks like this...

It's new, sparkly, and damn cool. Nintendo launches their new GBA site, and touts the new phrase that pays...

Conversions of the original NES classic Legend of Zelda, and SNES RPG Earthbound are heading to GBA! Updated! Story FALSE?!

After further review, Planet GameCube has decided to pull the pics, and post a retraction.

The pictures that we have posted from Mips are not real. As far as the games are concerned, I'm sure someday we will be seeing a Zelda title on GBA. As for an Earthbound title, there's possibilities for that as well. As of right now, there are no concrete pics, or news of development of Earthbound or Zelda titles for GBA.

After the Amped fake screen shot debacle you'd think Microsoft would look a little more carefully over what companies release as screen shots... apparently they missed these

According to the report, Sony's handheld will incorporate the Palm OS, while Microsoft's handheld will use the Pocket PC OS. Interestingly enough, the report also speculated that Nintendo might be delving into the PDA market themselves with the Game Boy Advance.
