PAL release date? June 1st 2008 perhaps

Nintendo's UK website is listing the release date for Super Smash Bros. Brawl as June 1, 2008. We repeat, this is not an online retailer like Gamestop or Amazon doing the guessing. It's Nintendo!
Advertisement:
While the main gamepage for Smash Bros still lists the game as sometime in 2008, a box out relating to all news articles about the upcoming game shows us the specific date.
To view an example for yourself, take a look here. We've grabbed a pic just in case it magically changes over the next few hours and we start to think we're seeing things.
We've contacted Nintendo UK just to make sure no one's playing silly buggers. More soon. All good hopefully.
Update: As expected, Nintendo has now removed the date from the website.

and Nintendo denied everything this morning: http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=91724
they're excuse is that "June 1st is a Sunday". however we all know the US releas date is March 9th, also a Sunday. so seeing how I don't see why a Sunday in Europe would be any different than a Sunday in the US (or am I wrong? I don't know) then I don't see how that could be any good reason.
so whats your take on this guys?

Natalie, so sorry.
Haha, she spend a while writting this up. It looked great, and the second she is about to post it. LOL
Ah well Nat, no worries... 
I'm going to wait for an offical date from Nintendo, until then I couldn't care less.

If they are denying it, its probably a mistake. So I will wait for the "official" announcement.

Yes but then they denied it this morning claiming it was a 'mistake'. Just like you wrote in your post.

it might have been a mistake that they released the date NOW, maybe they were waiting for a later date for some reason, and now still are. dont ask me

Yeah, it was up and then they took it down. Many are just saying that they're not ready to actually put the date but June 1st is when it should be out if all goes well.
