Component Cable information, Rogue Leader II in 60 Hz PAL mode and more...
With less than two weeks to go until launch, interesting things are beginning to happen regarding the GameCube. Here's a couple of things I've been able to dig up:
-Probably known by anyone who's played an official Nintendo display unit, but when you boot up the Rogue Leader II playable demo, you're prompted with a screen. It asks you something like "Do you wish to play in 60 Hz PAL mode?" with the option of yes or no. It looks like things mightn't be too bad for PAL gamers after all...
-Speaking of Rogue Leader II, I've been informed by an Electronics Boutique staff member that they've received their copies of the game, and that they're on the shelves NOW. I don't know how many stores this applies to, but don't be surprised if you see real GameCube games on shelves instead of promo boxes.
-Last but not least, I contacted Nintendo to get some more information on the mysterious component cable. Nintendo will be selling it from the first day of the GameCube's launch. The price for this fancy piece of equipment? A meager AUS$54.95, and Nintendo will pay for the postage. Hurrah!
