After the release of Mario Sunshine, the GameCube overtakes the Xbox in the UK.
A few days ago Cube Europe reported on the huge sales of Mario Sunshine, and the affect it had on hardware sales, now the figures are in.
The GameCube sold 5,860 units last week, compared to 5,591 Xbox's. These figures are for the week ending Saturday 5th October, meaning they only account for two days of Mario. Next week will show how popular Mario has really been.
