Alex S. from Link-Cable writes: "Last week we reported on a rumor that Nintendo might be considering to bring back the GameCube in the form of a Classic Edition to join the NES & SNES (and the presumed, eventual N64) mini consoles. This got our minds racing as to what games Nintendo could include on the micro version of everyone’s favorite purple lunch box. Many have fond memories of booting up their GameCubes, listening to the jingle and diving into hours and hours of fun with Mario, Link, Captain Olimar and everyone else whose games made it onto the console. So like we explored with the Game Boy, SNES and N64, we’ll be looking at the perfect games that could be installed on the system. "
A mix of first-party and third-party GameCube games should be available on Nintendo Switch 2's app.
Difficult games on the Gamecube? Who would have thought there would be any on this platform. Here are the most difficult Gamecube games ever.
Relive the golden age of gaming with these timeless video games. From Wind Waker to Monkey Island, get ready for a nostalgia-filled ride.
I'd put Street Fighter 2 over 3. 2 and all its different versions dominated the arcade scene back in the day in a way that 3 never did.
Ms Pacman?
Robotron?
SSF2 Turbo over 3 simply by the 10000000000's ports of the game we're still having
Castlevania SOTN?
Zelda Link to the Past over Wind Waker
Super Mario Bros 3?
Chrono Trigger?
Resident evil4?
COD MW2 (the original)?
Uncharted 2
Metal Gear Solid?
Here's my reasoning for all of them versus the list proposed in the article.
They are still quite enjoyable from start to finish on their original platform, unlike some Wind Waker or Okami that are fun when you play the remastered version (unless you call: forced to watch a 20-minute cutscene or have to blow for wind chance constantly fun).
Some of them are the pinnacle of what the console could do (MGS, Chrono, MGS)
Lots of them are still considered the go-to-go game for their genre.
Eternal Darkness, Luigi's Mansion, Mortal Kombat, Freedom Fighters, StarWars Rogue Squadron, Resident Evil 0, Resident Evil Remaster, Resident Evil 4, Metal Gear Solid Twin Snakes, Mario Sunshine just to name a few.
But you're missing some titles... Eternal Darkness, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Star Wars: Rouge Leader, Resident Evil remake, Metal Gear Solid Twin Snakes, Beyond Good and Evil, Timesplitters 2 (or 3), Resident Evil 4, Prince of Persia: Sands of Time.
someone, please, show Geist some love.
and Rogue Squadron II while we're at it
M rated games would be odd to include since a lot of 'younger' players (see parents) might not want them as part of the package.
