Gamecube

[Dopefish]

Ok, I'm actually considering buying a Gamecube this week because of that free game deal. The only problem is, I can only think of a handful of games I'd actually buy if I had the system. They include: Metroid Prime (which I'd get free with the gc), Celda, Mario Sunshine, Animal Crossing, Resident Evil 1 and 0, and maybe Eternal Darkness. Not all of those at once or anything, but over time. Other than that, I can't think of any decent games that I would want that are already out, or that are coming out. So, does anyone know or could anyone suggest some good games which are available that I haven't listed yet? You also have to realize I'm a real money waster, and I don't even need a Gamecube. I'd just sort of like to have one for the hell of it, and to play games like Celda again. Anyways, help me out here :)

I wish I had money to waste. I wish I had money.

TIME SPLITTERS 2 AND SMASH BROTHERS ARE PRETTY GOOD.

[AsianguySFH]

Eternal Darkness: the most adictive game ive ever played in my life, i missed lunch for a month, i didnt do my homework trough the whole time i was playing, the graphics r great, and the story, by far the best IVE ever seen.

[HardcoreChristmas]

You can wait for MP2 and Metal Gear Solid TTS.

If you have money to waste just get an Xbox. Because the future of Nintendo is not looking to good.If you already have a Xbox get a PS2. If you have both, go ahead and get the GameCube.

oh,I just found out you already had an Xbox. Go ahead and get the Gamecube

Okay, I have a GameCube. Here's the best games that I have played.

Metroid Prime, obviously, is the best ever.

Eternal Darkness is a VERY good game. Underrated for sure. Buy it.

I also rented a game called Vexx, and it was very good. It may look kinda goofy... it is... but it was fun.

Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader was a pretty good game, but it doesn't even compare to Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike, which comes out this month.

Super Smash Bros. Melee is also good if you have a few friends and some extra money for controllers.

You might also want to buy Resident Evil 1 and 0, but don't bother with any other remakes. RE 2 and 3 were ported directly from Playstation, so you might as well get the Playstation versions.

Got any Friends!?!?!

Super Monkey Ball 2 - the best multiplayer game on the cube.

Agreed, get this game for sure, I'm still playing the game and it hasnt let me down at all. Like Athranantilus said. The story is great (they're actually making a movie for it). Graphics are definatly next generation.

This game is way too underrated, which is a sad story. So pick it up.

[Gostrobe]

SSB Melee is still ome of the best. F-Zero GX is barely possible to complete, but it's a damn good game! Metroid is a really good and long( if you wanna 100%) FPS. RE are good but their controls suck. Eternal Darkness is an innovative survival horror that I own myself. Zelda is simply Zelda, which that mean excellent. Maroi Sunshine that I own too is good, but not more. Animal Crossing have an infinite gameplay, which is very good, if you own a GBA and a e-reader, I recommand to buy animal crossing e-cards with it. Soon release games that look good: Viewtiful Joe, Mario Kart, Kirby Air Ride and many more!

[EVIL-C]

Heh, Well I must say, soul, I'm surprised that you actually want to buy a GC, judging from some of your earlier posts about it, but aside from that, it's cool that you would like to have one now. Being the big gaming buff that I am, I can recommend many GC titles for you, spanning many genre's.

All the games you mentioned yourself, metroid, resident evil, Zelda, etc, are all excelent and I'd recommend all of them, many of those I own myself. I don't know what your intrests are, but of the games available now, these would be my picks:

F-Zero GX
animal crossing
Star Wars: Rogue squadron 2
mario Golf: ToadStool Tour
WWE WrestleMania XIX
Metroid Prime
Zelda: WW
Resident Evil 1 & 0
Eternal darkness
phantasy Star Online eps. 1 & 2
skies of Arcadia: legends
burnout 2: POI
red Faction 2
Soul Calibur 2
Ikaruga

if you want something specific I can list more. As for future titles, My picks would include:

Viewtiful Joe
Star Wars Rogue Sqadron 3: Rebel Strike
Mario Kart: Double Dash!!
1080: Avalanche
Metel Gear Solid:TTS
Kirby Air Ride
resident Evil 4
Final Fantasy: CC
Tales of Symphonia
Star Fox 2
Harvest Moon: A wonderful Life
killer 7
geist
Metroid prime 2

again, if you want something more specific, like a certain genre or something, just ask.

Well, those are my picks, and I hope they've helped you make up your mind easier. Any other questions or anything, just ask me. :)

Gamecube,Gameboy Player,GBA link,GBA,TV,2 LttP/FS games and a friend.The gameboy player for the GCN is great.The games for GCN are great as well.I still think PS2 is better.

First of all Xbox and PS2 are both clearly better.

And Gamecube is not doing well AT ALL.

It now costs 100 bucks and will most likely drop to around 70ish in a few months (Last time I checked the GBA costs that much. Shows how shitty Cube is doing.)

Anyway if you REALLY want it, you could probally pick it up for around 50 on ebay.

I’ve been considering getting a GameCube myself since they’re so cheap now. Plus, I went over to my friend’s place the other day to play the new F-Zero game and I’m hooked.

[Plunge]

Soul Calibur II and beyond good and evil when it comes out!

[OdinDragoonX]

How can you only think of a handful? Gamecube has the most and best exclusive games. Here are my 5 top pics for games coming out in no order:
-Wind Waker 2
-Metroid Prime 2
-Viewtiful Joe
-Rouge Squadren III
-Naruto

As for out now that are not on your list:
-Super Smash Brothers
-Soul Caliber II (GC has the best version hands down)
-Rouge Squadren II
-Monkey Ball 2
-Mario Party ( but i would wait for 5 to come out)
