Thursday, the 9th of May, EA announced in their Earnings Conference Call that Nintendo has sold 400,000 GameCube consoles during it's launch in Europe. We have not been able to confirm this with Nintendo, but we don't see why EA would bring out false console sales numbers.

Skip to about 10 minutes in, and EA talks about hardware sales. And specifically, GC sales in Europe, so far.

If EA is right about these numbers... MAN!! The European release was a huge success! We will try and confirm this number with Nintendo as soon as possible!

We will keep you updated!
