Considering getting a gamecube - Which games should I get?

I'm in Nintendo mode at the moment! I picked up a SNES in really nice condition for only £15 last week, and the best part is it came with a copy of Mario All Stars + Super Mario World! Anyhoo, I'm now considering acquiring a Gamecube, and would like some game recommendations So far my to-get list consists of: -F-Zero GX -Metroid Prime (I've never played a metroid game before) -Pikmin -Mario Sunshine -Wind-Waker -Starfox Assault -Ikaruga Is 1080 Avalanche any good? What others do you recommend? I love racing games, platformers, action adventure and RPGs. I dislike survival horror (so don't recommend Resident Evil!) FPS (unless it's really, really good), fighting, most RTS games (obv. I mentioned Pikmin :P). Thanks for any input!Nismology

Didn't we just have this thread? Anyways, in additoin to the games you listed, here's some more I recommend

-Super Smash Bros. Melee
-Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 2 & 3
-Resident Evil (Remake) (Best remake, EVER!)
-Resident Evil 4

I also highly recommend getting a Game Boy Player. They're dirt cheap and they allow you to play original Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and GBA games on you T.V. through your Gamecube. And the games looks fan-freaking-tastic on your T.V., especially the original Game Boy and Game Boy Color ones. Plus you get to play them with your Gamecube controller or your GBA itself as the controller if you have a link-cable.

Skies of Arcadia Legends is an excellent RPG.

It was orginally a Dreamcast game, so the graphics are not the best on the system, but it still has great art design and the game itself is superb. It has such an amazing sense of exploration.

Heres some of my favorites

Zelda Wind Waker & Twilight Princess

Metroid Prime 1 & 2

Resident Evil Remake RE4 and RE0

Metal Gear Twin Snakes

Paper Mario

Baten Kaitos 1 & 2

Viewtiful Joe 1 & 2

Pikmin 1 & 2 but if you have a Wii get them on it.

Mega Man X collection

Mega Man Aniversary collection.

Well, Legend of Zelda Wind Waker is a must!

-Resident Evil Remake is amazing!

-Resident Evil 4 is great too.

-Battalion Wars is totally fun.

-Skies of Arcadia Legends will change your life!

-Fire Emblem Path of Radiance is great game.

-Pikmin 1 and 2 are must plays......system defining games.

-Paper Mario is a must.

others.....but I'm getting tired and need to head to bed. (I didn't like Metroid Primes as much....I'm a 2D Metroid guy myself, but they are technically stellar)

Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem - THE best horror game of the generation.

Monkeyball I & II - Avoid the "MB Adventures" series, but those first two games are perfection, from the main game to the party games.

Godzilla: Monster Melee - Don't argue. G rules, and you know it.

Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance

Metal Arms: Glitch in the System

well, it will be hard. The Gamecube doesn't really have much of a game library.Mr-bomb

Tryin' to get that post count up, huh? Little tip for the New Fish:

If you don't actually have anything to contribute to a thread aside from your provincial attitudes and blatant ignorance, sometimes it's just best to move along, not post at all, and find something else to do. Legacy is a forum where we try to help each other out - We're friends here. If you feel like dumping and blathering, the System Wars Forum is chock-full o' twits ready to spew negativity with you.

Now, toddle on and let the adults talk for awhile, ok? Thaaaaaaanks...

Gamecube is so underated... it had so many great games. If you said you never played a Metroid game, definitely get Metroid Prime. I can't stand FPS but that game is so much more and one of my favorites ever. Also, since you have an SNES, try to get Super Metroid too.

The BEST GC game IMO is Tales of Symphonia. Great action RPG, I personally loved the cast of characters, and even though it's a basic JRPG story, for some reason I couldn't get enough of it.

Finally, get Paper Mario: Thousand Year Door. If you like Mario and RPGs, this game is one of the best. The story is really good but the writing and narrative make this game amazing.

FYI... if you just get a Wii, you can play all your GC games if you have a GC memory card and controller. Then you can also get some cheap great SNES games on the Wii Virtual Console.

Then it falls to us to maintain the civility and community (sometimes by informing newer members as to what we expect from each other - Though I admit, my tone could have been more gentle, upon reflection)... We police ourselves, in a sense. Of all the boards on this site, Legacy is the one place I enjoy for the consistently positive tone of it's regular contributors.

It's like my safe-haven midst chaos.

Just thought Id throw this out there, if you have no plans to get a Gameboy Player then you might as well just get a older Wii that plays Gamecube games. If you get the component cables you can play the GC games in Progressive Scan and they look pretty good still.

(Followed by this)

So by having the smallest library that gen with the least rated game line-up which was abandoned during it's time and eventually struggled to reach past 24 million units, and all those actually happened, means that in some way I am being ignorant?

No, you're being ignorant by posting in a topic for which, by your own admission, you have no interest in,and have absolutely nothing to say. It's often called "Post-Whoring".

You can like the Gamecube it just doesn't have anything,

As The Dude likes to say, "Well, like, that's your opinion, man..." - Lots of people think you're an idiot, but does that make them RIGHT???No, it's simply an opinion. And again, a pointlessly expressed opinion in this case because TC is leaning towards buying a 'Cube and was interested in suggestions. You don't like the 'Cube and think it has nothing to offer. So AGAIN...

... Why are you even HERE???

:?

and I honestly think the Gamecube is getting undeserved praise lately on the internet just because of the Wii among other reasons.

I... You... What? Huh? Y'know what? Forget I asked... This is beginning to give me a migraine...

But that doesn't change the fact it has a limited library with a limited amount of games that appeal to a limited demographic.

See The Dude quote, above.

Which means it will be hard to get anything from the library.

For you. Last time I checked, New Fish, no one knighted you the Arbiter of Gaming Taste, to preside over us mortals - But perhaps I'm wrong... Take off that McDonbald's paper hat for a sec and let's see if there's a crown under there.

Because there isn't much there.

Just like your oh-so-entertaining defensive dribble, even though you could just accept the truth - That you ****ed up and shot your gob off without thinking. It happens to the best of us.

I am not going to walk down the street and find shelves of Gamecube games, and if I do, it may not be varied due to its small amount of games.

Reminder: Your OPINION. Not FACT. You'd do well to get that straight.

Wasn't trying to start any flaming or anything.

OK... All is forgiven. Welcome to the forums.

Also for some reason, you listed all the RE games instead of 4. I take it you don't like 4 or was that just forgotten when you made the list?Mr-bomb

No, I just forgot, oops.

But what makes you think these are the worst version of games often? It's usually the PS2 version of games that generation that were the worst multiplatform titles.

[QUOTE="Mr-bomb"]Also for some reason, you listed all the RE games instead of 4. I take it you don't like 4 or was that just forgotten when you made the list?Emerald_Warrior

I said some were considerably worse compared to other consoles, sometimes even the PS2 in some cases, and some where the worst, not all of them were the worst. I never said that. Most multiplats compared to the PS2 that are inferior are- PS2 version runs smoother (sometimes) PS2 version had more content and more game additions(usually) Ps2 Version has less or no compression for things like FMV's, Special effects, particles, lighting, and even A.I. as well as textures(usually) Ps2 Version has faster input (sometimes) Now, with the Gamcube, you got to realize it has multiplats with Xbox, PC, and Dreamcast as well, and all of them have games that are on the gamecube that are superior to the Gamecube version although the number varies with the Xbox version usually being the highest, and due to lack of third-party motivation to try porting games harder, or to take advantage of the gamecube, and then adding on the fact the lack of disc space and how few developers did not want 4 Gamecube discs for game ports, the Gamecube has a small amount of games you could actually say run better than other systems. with its most notable advantage being with a few PS2 multiplats. So when you factor in its small library of games, a lot of games you listed are noticeably worse or would have already been known to be better by gaming sites and the press. preventing people from usually buying a lot of the Gamcubes multiplats. The Gamecube software sales were not exactly good outside of a few titles, and I remember EA dropping off of the Gamecube for low sales for example. Some other developers said that it was hard to work with as well with space restrictions and other things. Again, this is the developers fault, although mostly Nintendos. but they did try to get third-party support and try to help third-parties out more so than their last console and the Wii, so if they had made the system correctly maybe. But it's not a bad library, it's just small. Getting a Gamecube now may be worth it since it's so cheap, but 2001 to 2010?Mr-bomb

Besides, if you want multiplats that you shouldn't get, no matter what console (where the worst version is available, not so much a bad game on every system it's on), at least watch videos of Sonic Genesis on GBA. A horrid version of the original. Luckily, a much better version of the Genesis/Mega Drive cIassic was later released on DS.

Alright, Bomb. Give credit where credit is due, so I will say that some of the points you make have truth for some gamers, but most of the multiplatform games I purchased for that generation were indeed GC versions. And I'm NOT a Nintendo fanboy, I'm a Playstation fanboy. But games like the Resident Evil series (including 4), Soul Calibur II, Metal Arms: Glitch in the System, Super Monkeyball, Nightfire, Agent Under Fire, Everything or Nothing, Tiger Woods, Madden, Splinter Cell, Call of Duty, and on and on and on, I actively chose to buy for the GameCube and I never felt like I got the retarded little brother of a title or the second-class citizen. Discontent over series like Splinter Cell or CoD not having online play was a constant criticism of GC ports when held up to Xbox or PS2 versions, and that was another allowible critique, though honestly I never understood the preoccupation with that side of gaming. Still don't.

But in sumation: The library wasn't limited, only the vision of the player could impose that restriction on the system or it's offerings.

If you don't like the system, I respect that. There are tons of games on the GC that I don't grok (never been a "Zelda" man, for instance) Holding such opinion is completely within bounds... Making sweeping generalizations on behalf of other gamers is not.

try listing exclusives.Mr-bomb

I don't think a game has to be exclusive to be good. There are plenty of fantastic multiplatform games with fantastic versions on the Gamecube. But I'll still bite:

• Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem
• F-Zero GX
• Geist
• The Legend of Zelda: Collector Disc (Zelda Collection)
• The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
• The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker
• Mario Kart: Double-Dash
• Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes
• Metroid Prime
• Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
• Resident Evil (Remake)
• Resident Evil: Zero
• Skies of Arcadia (not exclusive, but also not on PS2, so exclusive for this conversation)
• Sonic Gems Collection
• Star Fox: Adventures
• Star Fox: Assault
• Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader
• Star Wars: Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike
• Super Mario Sunshine
• Super Smash Bros.
• Wario World

Plenty of great exclusives there that make owning a Gamecube well worth it; IN ADDITION to the fantastic multiplatform games.

Assuming you actually had a Gamecube that gen- Just because you brought the multiplats for the gamecube does not suddenly mean the gamecube has a library of semi or full inferior multiplats. It just meant you brought them for the gamecube, because you had one that gen. it does not prove anything i said before wrong at all. Yes, online lost the Gamecube ports of some games a lot interest by consumers, but you forget many other problems like blurry graphics, compression which is noticeable in many games, lack of content, framerate, and color depth as well as more. Neither of the above regardless stop it from having a limited library, it has nothing to do with vision, it targetted a smaller demographic PRIMARILY which is why it's Software sales were bad for a lot of other games, and it has a very small amount of advantagable multiplats and has a decent amount of exclusive. You can't actually argue against physical numbers or what target Nintendo was mostly making games for which completely ended up negating their journey of trying to gain third-party support.

You can't actually argue against physical numbers or what target Nintendo was mostly making games for which completely ended up negating their journey of trying to gain third-party support. Allow me to try this a different way- try listing exclusives.Supertornado

lol, what is this, like the 4th or 5th time now? On to alt-account #6?

lol the gamecube had over 600 games ,, if you call that small there is certainly something wrong with you ,

id say 400 were good ones the other 200 being movie tie ins and children fair , aka spongebob

but you better look at sega 32x , that is the definition of small or the virtual boy , ,

any system with over 300 games is not a small library because no body unless their millionaires , is going to own the whole library i own nearly 200 snes games out of the 800 plus available us releases ,

thats my 2nd most 360 being the top ,but since it isnt legacy my snes got the most use , i do have a fair share of gc xbox ps2 games as well as other consoles ,

but my point is ---

gamecube library is far from small , , and strugglinG ? id hardly call gc struggling when xbox couldnt do that much better, ps2 got lucky thats it , and judging by this gen nintendo deserves all the respect in the world right now and you sir aint helping one bit by coming into a legacy forum and starting a flame war

sure it may not have had gta but , you cant call gc a flop because you want to bump your post count , the gc was very profitable as nintendo made the same amount of profit as sony did selling over 100 m ps2s lol

so your in a small boat right now and since everyone considers wii a gc w new controller we might as well add wiis 90 million sales to gcs , and then lets see how much of a fanboy you really are

Someone was kind enough to point out that Bomb is indeed a troll, with multiple accounts who enjoys arguing with people AND shimself... Save your breath.

Any GC best or recommended games list without Metroid Prime is flawed
