FROM IGN
May 07, 2003 - IGNcube for weeks has brought readers news on a Nintendo announced GameCube preview disc, which would feature playable demos of such anticipated games as Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg and Viewtiful Joe. Nintendo previously announced that the disc would be included free with specially purchased GameCubes, and that it would be available sometime in May.
Various online retailer sites, though, are beginning to fill in more of the picture. It seems that the preview disc will ship on May 19 and -- gasp -- be available to purchase, too. The listing price is $9.99. This puts the demo disc right on par with similar preview discs from Sony and Microsoft for their respective consoles.


$9.99 is a little expensive for just a preview but at least you can get it without buying a cube.

Microsoft's Exibition Discs are $7.99, and I even found them at Circuit City for $4.99. I wonder if Nintendo will release these on a regular basis, like Sony's Jampacks and Microsoft's Exibition Discs.

That would be wonderful, though I hope that later incarnations house better game choices than Billy and Joe.

I were kind of hoping they would put them in nintendo power but still its better than only getting one with a cube.

Viewtiful Joe looks pretty good. I might get the disk or that. And maybe SC2.
