According to Daily Radar, the GBA will be delayed in Japan until April 2001. With the mass success the GBC is having (as well as the tons of games coming to the system) not a lot of us staffers are all that surprised. Dissapointed, but not surprised. Let's just hope the Dolphin sticks to it's Winter 2000 release in Japan. (please gawwwwd please!) Here's the juice.

As anticipated, Nintendo of Japan has pushed back its launch of Game Boy Advance. Nintendo had planned on releasing its next-generation handheld system in August this year. It now anticipates an April 2001 release for the system.

Tokyo technology stocks had a bad day yesterday, and Nintendo's 3.4% drop is comparable with the drops experienced by companies like Sony and NEC. The announcement came as no surprise, which might explain the relative lack of effect on stock prices.
