Nintendo Holiday Lineup: GameCube (GCN)

A few surprises, a couple of disappointments, and maybe even the official title for Prince of Persia 2...

Nintendo recently released a list for it's Holiday software lineup on the GameCube. Mostly, the list of games shows a little jostling of release dates, some games being pushed up or pushed back a couple days or weeks, and most of dates are simply confirmations of what had been announced previously. Unfortunately, this list confirms the fears that Star Fox and Geist will not make it out by the end of the year.

Amidst all the dates, perhaps the most interesting news bit is the game Prince of Persia: Warrior Within (aka Prince of Persia 2). Earlier this week, it was rumored that the official title for Prince of Persia 2 had been revealed in a post on PlayStaion.com, a post which has since been taken down. Now, this new release list from Nintendo mentions the title Prince of Persia: Warrior Within again. Ubisoft has yet to make an official announcement on PoP 2's title one way or another, but one will likely come within the next few weeks.
