    She got a GameCube

    The wife went and bought a GameCube now that they're only $100.

    It's a tiny little console with tiny little disks. She unhooked the X-Box to hook it up to the TV and played Luigi's Mansion until 10pm last night.

    Weird.

    I want to get Metroid, but I doubt I will ever get to play it as she has been absorbed by the inane majesty of the simple Mario type games... I just don't know what to think. I think it is great that she is playing video games (gives me more time to play on the PC), but at the same time it is rather strange that she would pick the GameCube of all systems. We have the X-box, PS, no PS2... I would of rather her got the PS2...

    Oh, well. Anyone know any good games for this system?

      The Wind Walker is nothing but a child's animated version of a coloring book . . .

        Metroid Prime is great.

        Wind Waker is a good game despite the new graphics.

        I thought Star Fox blew--never bothered to finish it.

              I LOVE the GameCube.

              Metroid Prime is incredibly awesome, as is Wind Waker. MrFun - have you even played it? Despite the graphics, which I agree scared me at first, this game is seriously amazing in its storyline, gameplay, and addiction levels...the only thing it lacks is a 'harder' quest...only a 'pajama' quest which isn't much different. I spent my entire spring break playing and beating this game. It's just amazing.

                In other words... its cell-shaded.

                  The Game Cube is for little kids... Then again all of the cosuls are for little kids but the Game Cube is for real little kids. Take it back and buy an X-Box.

                    Poor flame attempt Oerdin.
                    #1) The wife bought it, so good luck returning it.
                    #2) He already has an XBox.

                    Anyway, definitely avoid StarFox Adventures (merely looking over my roommie's shoulder showed what a poor Zelda clone it was), and definitely pick up Eternal Darkness, one of the best games I've played in awhile.

                    Therefore this is not a syllogism.

                      I thought the original post stated they had to unplug the Xbox to use the GameCube...

                        I like the comfort of my childhood icons thank you very much Oerdin

                        oh, and Snowy is right about StarFox adventures...my brother got it, but it's pretty bad IMO.

                          The Wind Waker is simply amazing.

                          I thought Super Mario Sunshine was criminally underrated.

                          Metroid Prime is outstanding, but may induce nausea.

                          Just rented F-Zero, it's a blast... wish I knew how to get a boost off the starting line... damn Blockbuster not giving the book with the game...

                          And here's a little something that is just a plain stupid amount of fun--Super Monkey Ball and Super Monkey Ball 2.

                          Mario Kart will be released very shortly, as will Rouge Squadron 3. Both look promising.

                          And, of course, all the EA Sports titles that you can get for your X-Box, too... NCAA Football...

                            You should get the gameboy player. It makes the cube much more worth it. Thousands of cheap games to play. And I prefer the likes of, say, Metroid fusion and the S. Mario world to the 3d console games. Keep it simple.
