Just when you thought the Pokémon puns were over we use another one to celebrate Pokémon causing a massive increase in GameCube sales.

Despite the idea that floats around that Pokémon is dead the newest game, Pokémon Colosseum, has caused quite a stir in the sales.

For the week ending May 15th GameCube sales increased 60%, which is very impressive. The fact that a Pokémon bundle, containing a GameCube, Pokémon Colosseum, Pokémon Box, a GameCube to Game Boy Advance link cable and a Memory Card 251.

Certainly good news for Nintendo then. To find out hardware sales for other companies head on over to Computer and Video Games.
