From IGN:
Well that sucks. Are there any big RPGs coming out this holiday season for any of the three systems? And I don't care about FF X-2.

July 22, 2003 - Nintendo of America today announced new official release dates for several anticipated GameCube projects. Many of the games have been pushed back later into the year and at least one major project won't come out until next February, according to the company.
The new release dates:
Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour -- July 28
Mario Party 5 -- November 11
Mario Kart: Double Dash!! -- November 17
1080: Avalanche -- December 1
Pokemon Channel -- December 1 (with a retail price of $39.95)
Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles -- February 9, 2004
The confirmation of Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles' delay into next year is sure to come as a blow to Nintendo fans eagerly awaiting the role-playing game.
Nintendo also stated that a number of compelling third-party efforts would ship for GameCube before the end of the year, including: Soul Calibur II from Namco, WWE WrestleMania XIX from THQ; P.N. 03 and Viewtiful Joe from Capcom; Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg from Sega; Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike from LucasArts; and Hideo Kojima's entry to Nintendo GameCube, Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes from Konami, among others.
More as it becomes available.
