      Nintendo definitely brought their a game with it. Donkey Kong Jungle Beat, Super Mario Sunshine, Wario World, Metroid Prime 1 and 2, Wave Race Blue Storm, Mario Kart Double Dash, Chibi Robo, Pikmin 1 and 2, Kirbys Air Ride, and they secured some really unique third party exclusives such as Eternal Darkness, Geist, Billy Hatcher, GoGo Hypergrind, and Cubivore. So glad I grew up with the cube and wii back when Nintendo was just killing it with their console exclusives. Here's to hoping the switch doesn't wind up like the wiiu.

    Timesplitters 2 is probably the best fps I have ever played. It has over 200 characters to play as, lots of weapons and the easiest map making system of any game.
    If yoy like Goldeneye you will love Timesplitters 2. Such a great hidden gem.

    • @jyatsko89
      @jyatsko89 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    • @DX5555555
      @DX5555555 7 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      There was this show on Cartoon Network about time traveling and my dad saw time splitters 2 in the discount bin and was like hey this is that show you like and we bought it thinking it had anything to do with that show. Long story short one of the best mistakes of my youth.

    Mad respect for putting Lost Kingdoms 1 & 2 on your list, guys. Those games were a huge part of my childhood, and I would love to find more games with their look and feel, if not also their gameplay.

    Tales of Symphonia is an absolute gem for the gamecube. They just re-released the HD version for PS3 which any player whose owned the game could easily recommend. Fire Emblem Path of Radiance was also phenomenal but I'm not sure if it's a HIDDEN Gem as it did get some attention unlike Symphonia.

    I remember playing both Lost Kingdoms when they came out 12 years ago, amazed by how innovative and fun they were. Fast forward to the present and I think the Dark Souls games are some of the best games ever made, and now you tell me they were both made by From Software?! Also, Eternal Darkness, Starfox Assault and Kirby Air Ride all kick ass. The Baten Kaitos games are a couple of real gems in the rpg category for the gamecube, as long as you can get past the somewhat dodgy voice acting everything else about those games is magical, especially the plot and art style.

    It's a game console dude. Not a DVD player. I mean how can you say with a straight face, if you really love video games, that you were disappointed that the Gamecube couldn't play DVD's? Really? Nintendo knew what was up, and they still do. Buy a DVD player.

    • @MetalJesusRocks
      @MetalJesusRocks  9 ปีที่แล้ว +68

      Justin Dloski The point is...back when DVD players were new and expensive, it was a potential deterrent. I know several people who bought the PS2 because it would do both.

    • @justindloski9129
      @justindloski9129 9 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      actually it was a good selling point, a lot of kids/teenagers that could not afford ps2, got one because they talked their parents into getting one because family needed a dvd player, and dvd players were 200 and more dollars at that time

      +Cody “jason10” G Sadlly, Multi-plats like Simpson's: H&R were commonly butchered or inferior on the gamecube- I had it on Gamcube growing up, but I recently picked up the OG Xbox version, and it simply looks better. Also, the gamecube version is like 10 bucks at the time of this post, and the others are cheaper, so im not sure where you're getting the sense of scarcity. Peace

    • @TenstimDabis
      @TenstimDabis 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I grew up with it too, and all i had was a gamecube, so this game i played alot. It's just my perspective on the game. If you believe the Xbox and ps2 versions are better, be my guest.

    I expected to see Metal Arms: Glitch In The System in this list, I didn't, and I was thoroughly disappointed.
    Metal Arms isn't just a "hidden gem", it's more like a massive cave filled to the ceiling with gold and diamonds. I make it sound like the best game ever, and it is in my opinion. It's one of the most underrated games I've ever played. And it saddens me that so few people recognize it.

    I am beyond happy that you mentioned Lost Kingdoms 1 & 2. Those were, perhaps, the greatest games I have ever played in terms of atmosphere and mood. Maybe they arrived at that sweet spot in my childhood where any neat game could be magical, but damn, they were wonderful games to play. Great music, interesting concepts, unique artwork...they were simply captivating.

    I had Billy Hatcher! I forgot all about it. That game became progressively harder and harder.
    DK Jungle Beat, although short, my cousin and I frequently re-played it because is was so fun.
    I *loved* StarFox Assault. I also was skeptical about StarFox Adventures until I played it. I also loved Adventures but felt that it was too short.
    The rest I don't know or haven't played, or didn't wow me (Kirby Air Ride).

    I stumbled upon this video kinda by surprise, and in it I see lost kingdoms. A game I played as a child and recently have tried to find. I couldn't remember the name and when I tried to describe it to my friends they had no idea what I was talking about. Finally, after all these years! Thanks alot.

  • @DSan-kl2yc
    @DSan-kl2yc 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I was truly not expecting Lost Kingdoms to be mentioned. THat was one of my first gamecube games that my mom bought. I had no idea waht it was, went in blind, was one of my favourite of the early lot I had.

    Gamecube is (in my opinion) the best console ever. Great games, amazing controller. The design isn't the best looking but it is very easy to bring it with you or store it anywhere and the GameCube can take a beating. It didn't have a dvd-player but I mean.. Who cares? It's not a dvd, it's a video game system!
    The discs I must admit are a bit awkward as they are so small but it's not really a bad thing.

    • @linoeleven
      @linoeleven 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      While the system is rock solid, small discs not a problem, and the controller is unique enough to itself (perfect for 1st party stuff like Luigi's Mansion, etc)... the lack of quantity makes it nowhere close to powerhouses like the PS1 and PS2. Even the SNES has more depth and a much more classic library.

    • @DjStiv3
      @DjStiv3 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      all that taken into account doesnt make it the best then.
      I would say in terms of what it offers, the dreamcast was the best. It popularized internet console gaming, great arcade ports, even had 480p output etc.
      The best gaming platform console in general would have to be the ps2, had memory cards for saves so even if disc is lost or scratched get another and youre god to go, played dvds etc.
      The most fun console is possible snes or ps1.
      The most advanced at the time in a generation of consoles would be n64 i guess. The most attractive design, possibly the sega genesis or xbox 360.
      Best innovation moving forwards onto another gen, perhaps ps3.
      Best use of medium, blu ray and the ps3 again.
      i mean its diverse, idk if nyone can truly pick one.

  • @kalashnikov6608

    • @KTaco11

      +Kalashnikov Had you been born 10 years earlier, I am very confident you would, like me, believe that the SNES is the best of all time- but we are products of our environment; I think your list is strong but there where several great titles that you left out: Metriod Prime, Eternal Darkness, Skies of Arcadia remake, Ikaruga!, Wario World (gotta love treasure on the Gamecube), Kirby Air Ride, Metal Gear Solid Remake, and last but not least: Pikmin! Peace.

    @RichiRay97 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Since you mentioned Star Fox Adventures on this list along with Assault, I really recommend that you should try out Adventures again. Sure, it was a different game from 64 and Assault, but it is far from being considered a bad game. It had a good story, fun gameplay, and most importantly, had some of the absolute BEST graphics and music on the GameCube, especially since it came out in 2002. While you may like Assault more, I seriously think you should give Adventures another shot and look at it for what it did, rather than for what it could've been.

    Fun fact: Starfox Adventures originally wasn't a Starfox game at all, during development it was called Dinosaur Planet and starred Crystal as the main character. This before Nintendo probably realized the Jurassic Park-induced dinosaurs craze of the 1990s was over and done with and the way they found to sell the game was giving it a Starfox paintjob.
