Yeah, I have one and it's still used every day. Some of my favorite GC games are Super Smash Bros. Melee, Animal Crossing, Mario Kart, and Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly (I find the latter to be very underrated).

Anyone else here have a GC? And what are some of your favorite games for the system?

ok, decent games are dear, there are of course cheap 10$ games like SSBM, Super mario Sunshine, Zelda Wind Waker, stars wars rogue squadron 2 and others and there ok, but they just seem lame >.< compared to anything i've played on previous generation Nintendo consoles

I think the Gamecube had some of the most under-rated games of any console, ever. There were so many good games for it, but no one's ever heard of them.

Not worldwide it isn't. I can find the GC version of Twilight Princess at virtually every retailer, including Wal-Mart and Toys R Us.

He maybe right about the cost where he lives, but definitely not everywhere. I've seen Mario Sunshine, Paper Mario, Star Fox: Assault, etc. for $30, which isn't very expensive and they're worth every penny.

Where do you guys buy your games? Over here in the U.S. all those games mentioned are $20. Except Zelda, of course, which is still $50.

Canada. Those games are (except, of course, Zelda) $30 here, which is pretty much the same as $20 U.S.

except for mario sunshine (which is 10$ 2nd hand), the rest are indeed 30$ or more new... i listed some games before and each was about 10$ 2nd hand and they all work great ttbomk.

but games like "thousand year door" and others are 70$ or more new... most of the "good" games are dear as poison.

btw, i added location to my profile.

In Austrailia maybe, but Mario Sunshine is $20 new in the U.S. and $30 new in Canada. The same goes for the other games I listed (except Twilight Princess, since it's not even a year old yet).

Anyway, can we PLEASE get back on-topic? Does anyone here have a GameCube, and what are some of your favorite GC games?

You got it. Favorite games are the Metroid Prime series, the Timesplitters series, and Star Fox Assault. I also thought the Star Fox Adventures game had great graphics and sound, and I don't really understand why no one liked it.

Oh, and to those people that actually voted that they hate the Gamecube: What's wrong with it?

I didn't mean to say I hated it, but I don't have one, and never have, so I couldn't have sold it. There just wasn't any better option. I lack one, but wouldn't mind trying it out.

Sorry to bump a week-old thread, but if you don't mind trying one out, why don't you? I mean, the Wii will play all of the Gamecube games, so there's no reason not to give some of them a try while we wait for Mario Kart and Smash Bros. to come out.

I don't have a Gamecube or Wii. No, I can't go out and buy them either.

No, I don't, but I like them. They're cool. But I'm getting a Wii soon.
