    What feels weirdly forgotten about the generation (also applies to the ps2) is that alot of games had Dolby Pro Logic II. Meant you could output a stereo signal that av units decode into surround. Really nice in Metroid Prime 1 & 2.

    I made it, ma! My favorite Gamecube game is probably SoulCalibur 2, as the Gamecube version featured Link and that was a big part of how it got me into the franchise. To this day I am still not a big fan of fighting games, but I love this whole franchise.

    The mini disc was a way for Nintendo to control the prices they set for developers on the GameCube. They were the sole manufacturers of those discs and were known price gougers. It gatekept more than a few developers away from the platform and the discs holding a lower amount of content kept many games away as well.

    Aika from Skies of Arcadia is SEGA's version of Tifa.
    Fina from Skies of Arcadia is SEGA's version of Aerith.
    If you look at this classic SEGA JRPG, you can find similar character types but also really different between their relationship with Vyse compared to those same comparisons with relationships with Cloud from FF7.

    As someone who grew up with the GameCube since 2002, I'm surprised that some people didn't know about the disk eject button. Does sound awesome that people managed to get LAN function to be played online. Similar to what I heard about Xbox system link. I never knew about both until recently.
    Half-Life 1 would of been awesome on the GameCube as I enjoyed what I've played of it on the PlayStation 2, and a small amount of it on the SEGA Dreamcast hardware
    What surprised me the most is that I never knew that fact about Nintendo supported UK universities, to help developing video games as a project on the GameCube dev kits hardware. That's an awesome UK Nintendo fact!
    *Serious Sam impression* "I made it, Ma!"
    For my favourite GameCube game on the platform, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle is definitely my all-time favourite for the level design, missions, unlockables, and the Chao Garden. Even the multiplayer is great! I played that for the first in 2004 and was blown away by the Hero opening as a kid.
    Also, Welsh cakes are tasty!

    Nintendo GameCube also serve as the foundation for the Nintendo Triforce Arcade system, it has adapted the Triforce name since it's a joint project of Nintendo (IP Holder), Sega (Experience in Arcade Systems and platform), and Namco (Partner and Experience in Arcade development).
    F-Zero and Mario Kart series are some of the games being released and are compatible with GameCube version.
    Weird Trivia: The Dolphin emulator was named after the internal name of the Nintendo GameCube PowerPC processor, It emulate the Nintendo Wii, GameCube, and Triforce Arcade system with minimal issue.

    I was definitely 1 of those 100,000 that bought one of the GC Panasonic's Q. It was in Ikebukuro, Tokyo, Japan (around 2002, iirc.) and I knew I "just" came from an anime convention (in Ikebukuro, mind you; also I was serving in the US NAVY during that time early in the 00's - to 04) not only to see the creator of MegaTokyo, but be awe enjoying a Broccoli DiGiCharat "Party Night" song with the rest of the cast and crew. All hoping like idiots. Too bad when I came back to the states, low on cash etc, I tried 'pawning' this off but couldn't and eventually me and the system parted ways after a bad 'roommate from hell' came into my life.
    But it is what it is. It was a great time though!

    The way in which Wind Waker upended my intense disappointment with Nintendo’s decision to use the uniquely odd art style and animation and instead created a top tier Zelda of which I have a deep nostalgic affection for it’s atmosphere and ambience is truly unparalleled. I have the same level of nostalgic affection for Metroid Prime and still can’t say for sure I enjoyed either of those more than when I borrowed the Res Evil remake. And I almost just forgot Res Evil 4. I rank all 4 as “Tier S” gaming experiences and at the time I had no idea how incredibly rare games of that Tier would actually be

    Nintendo have always gone down the route of attempting to discourage 3rd parties making money out of their systems.
    The mini-discs. The cartridges when everyone and his dog was moving to CD's. Strict controls on releases. All of these things stopped others from making money from Nintendo. And of course made sure that Nintendo made less money than they might have. Because companies went with other systems to save the hassle of working with Nintendo.
    As a SNES fanboy throughout that system's long life, I've avoided Nintendo like the plague ever since. Barring buying the handhelds for the kids over the years.
