Two new GameCube hardware bundles will launch at the start of November in the UK, with customers being offered a choice of Mario Kart: Double Dash bundled for free, or Pokemon Colosseum for an extra UKP 10.

The Mario Kart: Double Dash bundle will feature a platinum coloured console and a copy of the popular title for the standard retail price of the console, UKP 79, and is available from November 5th.

It will be followed on November 12th by the arrival of the Pokemon Colosseum bundle, which features a black console, a memory card and a copy of the Pokemon Colosseum RPG title, and will retail at UKP 89.

Nintendo also recently added 23 first- and third-party titles to its budget priced Player's Choice range, with key titles including Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, Soul Calibur II and F-Zero GX all being reduced to UKP 19.99 in preparation for Christmas.

As well as its promotional offers on existing titles and hardware, the company also hopes to woo punters with a number of major software releases in the coming months - with Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, Tales of Symphonia and Paper Mario 2: The Thousand Year Door all being launched in Europe before Christmas.
