Aquired a GC, What Games to buy?

[noiseredux]

^I agree that TP is best on the Cube.

I still need to get that OOT disc myself.

And I 2nd Animal Crossing if only for the NES games (although all of them are available through the GBPlayer either on GBA or e-reader, EXCEPT for Punch-Out).

Yeah I paid double the price for Twilight Princess on the Gamecube (my shop was selling the Wii version 2nd hand for £15, and the Gamecube version £30). I stood in the shop for ages trying to decide which to buy, and whether it was worth paying double. Decided it was in the end. More fool me I guess, but I wanted the GC version

A thousand times yes, make sure you spend the $15 and get a gameboy player. It essentially expands your possible library 10 fold. The one weakness in the gamecube's line up that I saw was the lack of 2D Platformers. With the gameboy player that problem is solved.

I've said it before, and chances are will say it many many times again: the Gamecube with GBPlayer is pretty much the greatest console ever. You've got a library that spans 20 years with literally something for everyone.

I ended up buying both

Here's my top 11 (why not?) Gamecube recommendations (excluding the ones you have):

11. Super Smash Bros. Melee
10. Animal Crossing
9. Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
8. Pikmin
7. F-Zero GX
6. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
5. Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes
4. Resident Evil 4
3. Ikaruga
2. Metroid Prime
1. Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker

I'm really no expert, though. Lisalover's the one you should come to if you have any further questions.

For reference, here's what I have:

-LoZ Wind Waker
-LoZ Twilight Princess
-Luigi's Mansion
-Viewtiful Joe
-Resident Evil 4
-XIII
-Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
-Super Mario Sunshine
-Mario Kart Double Dash
-Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean
-Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
-Super Smash Bros Melee
-Metroid Prime
-Starfox Adventures
-Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
-Gameboy Player

Most of those I would put solidly on "must-own" except XIII and FFCC. On my list of what I'm looking for, I have:

-Skies of Arcadia: Legends
-Metroid Prime 2
-Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem
-Beyond Good and Evil
-Killer7
-Tales of Symphonia
-Pokemon Colosseum
-Kirby Air Ride
-the Phantasy Star Online games
-The LoZ bonus disc and OoT/MM disc

again, most of these I'd consider a must own.

XIII is awesome. SO overlooked. Nobody ever talks about it. I think it's great.

I got it with my cube and haven't touched it yet. I didn't put it as a must-own since I haven't played it myself.
