The British news promotes GameCube with in-game footage and a interview of sorts!

It looks like the mainstream news in England is beginning to pick up on GameCube. A popular British news broadcast, "Breakfast News" just did a story on the videogame wars--mostly focusing on the 'Cube. Here's how reader "Radioheadrule" described it:

"The piece covered the console wars - this is the first of its kind on mainstream British news. The physical Gamecube console itself was shown along with the PS2 system and the fabled Dreamcast, it spoke of XBox but nothing was seen. Then Nintendo Of Europe had offered a brief interview where they briefly touched on Luigi's Mansion and the water in Waverace Bluestorm... this was followed by Nintendo Gamecubes being played and fullscreen Direct Feed Luigi's Mansion being played out across the nation....No non-nintendo game footage was shown, more or less nothing positive was said about PS2, the XBox details were obviously very vague to the BBC cos they hardly mentioned it."
