40 essential GameCube titles

Submitted by Kat on January 2, 2007 – 7:51 pmComments

nintendo-gamecube.jpg Whether you’ve had your ‘Cube for years, are a budget gamer who’s now picking up older consoles and games now that the new gen is out, or you never had a GameCube but you now have a Wii and want more titles, you’ll enjoy the 40 Essential GameCube Games from Geek Idiot. Never having owned a GC, there are a few games from this list on my wishlist once I get a Wii, including Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem, Super Mario Sunshine, and Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles. Did they miss any?

    Has there been any word on whether or not the GBA link cable works on a Wii? I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't, which would make Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles and Zelda: Four Swords pretty much useless. Both of those games are relatively boring in single player, but kick twelve different varieties of ass if you can get three or four people together with their GBAs to play them. You can definitely tell where some of the inspiration for the Nintendo DS was coming from after playing those games.

    I'll also second the love for Baten Kaitos. That game was severely overlooked, and is one of the best FF-style RPGs I've played in ages. The card system sounds a little dumb on paper, but once you start playing it makes perfect sense, and makes the battles a much more intense situation than is normal in this genre of game.

    I've played alot of those and still have most of them. It's too bad the Gamecube never really flourished despite such good games. They were just a little too spread out, too much time in between titles.



    As a side note, I know a lot of people who bought a gamecube because of Eternal Darkness...

    The cube's a great platform with lots of great games to play. Don't get Crystal Chronicles unless you have at least one other person to play it with on a regular basis. It's no fun 1-player and you'll need your team available every time you want to play or you just won't enjoy it. Eternal Darkness is astonishing and I miss playing it. Mario Sunshine got old fast.
