To celebrate the launch of Super Mario Sunshine, Nintendo are set to release a special-edition SMS Gamecube. The console will be emblazoned with Mario artwork - this is the first time that such a console has ever been released under the Nintendo name. Nintendo will only release a limited batch of the unit which is sure to be a collectors item. The Mario GCN, which will launch on July 19 in Japan (to coincide with the release of SMS) will cost around £110. Money well-spent I say!
