Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising (GBA) Nintendo 3/10/2003
Munch's Odyssey (GBA) THQ 3/10/2003
WWE WrestleMania XIX (GC) THQ 3/10/2003
Wallace and Gromit - Project Zoo (GC) Acclaim 3/10/2003
Disney Party (GC) EA Games 3/10/2003

After the disappointment of Kirby's performance on the GBA last week, it will be hoped that Advance Wars 2 will do far better in terms of sales. Also, it will be interesting to see just how well the first of Microsoft's licenses does on a Nintendo platform - as THQ publishes Munch's Odyssey. Next up is the release of Rare's Banjo-Kazooie, but that is in a few week's time. On the GameCube front there is the new WWE Wrestlemania title, which should do far better than X8 did, Wallace & Gromit's faithful following will hopefully come out of the woodwork and push Project Zoo up the charts, and EA's Disney Party may well just fall flat on its face...
