So, now that the GameCube is getting Winning Eleven...

will N. Americans have an easier time getting it up and running on their console?

All the GC needs is a disc you can pick up at EB for 20 USD to play imports. No expensive Shark thing or stabbing your PS2 with a knife w/o the guarantee that it will work.

From The Magic Box:

- Konami announced they will release a GameCube version of World Soccer Winning Eleven 6: Final Evolution in Japan on January 30, 2003. A PS2 version of this game is scheduled to release in Japan on December 12.

Shame the Freeloader isn't released yet though!

People paying $20 won't be receiving anything for a while yet.

Might be out by the time FE is released though! If your lucky!!!

WOOO! I've been waiting for a GC version of WE for ages - i can finally bin my PS2 come the end of January.. I hope there's a non-sanatised US version though, jap text pisses me off after a while..

Do you think the GC will have control problems because it has fewer buttons?

Why would you want to get rid of your PS2? It's getting the most quality games. + If WE bombs on the GC (which it could), Konami will probably never release another version on it :(

Yeah. It is a Gamecube that can play both Japanese & North American games without modchips, or anyhing else.

It's pretty expensive here, it's around US $200 -$250 for the retail price in some gaming import store.

Rubbish, it must already be modded. They aren't allowed to sell out of of box multi region consoles.

It must have the switch on the back.

That's what I know so far. There's a switch to play either Japanese or North American games. I really honestly don't know if it is modded. If you say so, O.K. then. They sell it legally also in Japan since they are both NTSC format.

I don't think it'll suffer playability wise. Think about it, it could easily be:

4 face buttons/same as PS2
Analogue R button for running, and the Rclick for R2 tricks.
Z changes player
L+Cstick/face buttons can do tactics.

I can't see anything that would be left out, or moved somewhere else?


I'd get rid of my PS2, because WE6 is the ONLY game it gets used for. I've got a load others, and it's chipped, but there's nothing out on the PS2 that i think will hold my interest. Not now or in the near future. Those that might will probably be multi platform, and if not, i think the quality stuff on GC/XBox (getting one before Xmas) will more than satisfy me. Splinter Cell anyone?

YA FU.CKING BEAUTY!!

Where was this info found out?
So, I have a PAL European 'Cube, so what will I be able to do to be able to play WE for my cube?

I hope they release PES2 in Europe for the cube as I think it'd do well here.
 

Decado

Found over at The Magic Box (mostly Japanese news). No idea about a European release.

Personally, I think that the GC has next to nothing coming out or on the console. The PS2 generally has the best game in almost every genre/sub genre and the most, as well. Mainly personal preferrence, I guess.

To be honest, I have been a dedicated Nintendo gamer, right from the glory days of the NES, SNES, through the rocky patch that was the N64, and now with the Gamecube, i'm beginning to loose faith, and its sad.
there were so many assurances that loads of games would come out for the cube, and it would get all the major multi-format releases, but has this happened? has it f.uck.
I have had my cube since the launch day in europe, (may) and I have only bought 3 games for it. I mean don't get me wrong, I love Zelda etc, but one quality puzzle/platform game every six months doesn't really do it for me, they've got to pull there finger out and make a wide range of games, not the same cartoon based stuff too. Plus the news that Rare has been sold doesn't bode too well.

I love Nintendo and their quality and innovative-ness, but time is running out for them, and they'll go the way of sega if they don't watch it.

If this is true this is a sad Day for PES gamers:(

All the best Video Games are virtually exclusives, this is because that particular team can concentrate on one game on one format.

And iMHo this is the reason there are a lot of people bitching online with how little is updated in PES2, especially on other forums.

KTYKO said they have done about 30% of what they wanted to do with PES sofar, well it seems they are moving at 2% a year:rolleyes:

At the end of the day it will slow up the releases on the PS2 and these releases will have very little upgraded as the Japs lap every release of this game sold, and they are far more important to konami then the rest of us.

All Gc's will recieve is a standard Port of PES due to the fact Konami's profits are in the PS2.

This is not a bashing of the GameCube, I would just hope the developers dedicated all their time to one format, I would actually be happier if they took PES exclusively to the CUbe then Multiformat.

winge over

Its the not knowing if Pes will come out on the Gc that really annoys me, i want to know definately if it is coming out or not, and if I have to buy a ps2 or not.

Well after having played GTA3 to death, twice, on my PS2, i really don't think GTA4 will be that much of a step up.
