Nintendo can't meet GameCube demand is a story on CNet with the news that Nintendo will not be able to meet new demand for GameCube shipments. After the delay (story) and cut of shipment of Xbox consoles, retailers had been asking Nintendo for additional GameCube shipments but Nintendo is unable to give them these additional units due to a maxed out production line. Nintendo is expected to ship about 700,000 GameCubes for its November launch.
