Agreed. As great as a lot of other games are, and there are a lot of great ones, Chibi-Robo and Pikmin 2 are the crown jewels of the NGC and belong in every collection.

The Xbox is also my system of choice for that generation, and my Xbox collection is enormous. When Tom & Jerry: War of the Whiskers (XBOX) arrives in the mail in a few days, I will have finished my Xbox collection, and I will have to post some pictures of it.

I actually have that game, but I left it off of my list. (I was not looking at my collection when I wrote it, and the list was to the best of my recollection.)

The games I want to finish my collection are:
Baten Kaitos Origins
Bust-a-Move 3000
Capcom vs. SNK 2 E.O.
Cubivore
Egg Mania: Eggstreme Madness
Fight Night Round 2
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
Go! Go! Hypergrind
Kirby Air Ride
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time / Master Quest
Lost Kingdoms
Lost Kingdoms II
Mario Power Tennis
Mega Man X Collection
Mortal Kombat Deception
Pac Man Vs.
Phantasy Star Online Episode III: C.A.R.D. Revolution
Ribbit King
Super Monkey Ball 2
Super Monkey Ball Adventure
Tales of Symphonia
Viewtiful Joe: Red Hot Rumble
Virtua Striker 2002
Worms Blast
There are a few expensive games here, but I should be able to finish it off without too much effort.

There's a third Viewtiful Joe? dang.

You won't be disappointed with Megaman X Collection. It's nice to have 6 games in one place.

Yes, but it's not nearly as good as the other two Viewtiful Joe games. It's more of a Power Stone type game, kind of.

As for the Mega Man X Collection the PS2 controller is better then the GameCube one for this game, you won't hear me say that very often. You'd have an improved experience with a PS2-to-NGC controller adapter or even better buy the Hori Game Boy Controller which would also work slick on Game Boy Player games, though that controller is expensive. I'm hoping to grab one at some point. I was debating between that and Skies of Arcadia when someone else bought it so my decision became very easy.

My Arcade stick works with the Mayflash Gamecube adapter which is a cheaper approach. An interesting quirk how it converts the analog stick games to the digital stick.

Very nice collection, and all of the really expensive stuff as well. Is there anything you're still looking for or are you done with your collection?

I am not a big fan of Resident Evil (I like Silent Hill WAY more), but the only one I don't have is Code Veronica X, and that would be nice to have to complete the collection, but I doubt I'd ever play it LOL.

There are some NTSC-J and PAL games that look cool to me:
Giftpia (but this is in Japanese)
The Hudson Selection Volumes, especially Adventure Island
Doshin the Giant
