Mario Kart: Double Dash! (GameCube)

from: Nintendo

November 14, 2003
The review by "Olsta" that seems first up when I log on, sums up the nature of this game.

Nintendo will eventually release the Wii version so you can steer with the Wiimote. In the meantime this version is a great way to enjoy a truly great game for all the family. As with all Gamecube games on disc you need the Gamecube controllers (Not the Wii Classic one) and a Gamecube memory card if you want to save progress and points. Memory is not necessary to play when the family just load it up for an hour of fun! I got a set of Gamecube wireless controllers to keep the wirefree environment (Madcatz ones), and invested in an original Gamecube memory card due to forums indicating problems with third party ones. We have had no problems using ... Read More:

GameCube 251 Slot Memory Card (GameCube)

from: Nintendo

September 20, 2002
I used to own a few Nintendo Gamecube Memory Cards because there's just not enough memory on some Memory Cards to store the required data onto!
This was going on until I came across this Memory Card, which can store up to 251 Blocks of Data! I thought to myself this is just brilliant and what I need to store and keep all of my Nintendo Gamecube Data on!

My Grade For The Memory Card: 8/10: Enjoyable, Fair-Play, Thumbs Up

My Wish: Sometimes I do find that when I transfer data from one Gamecube Memory Card to another, the Gamecube may not allow me to move or copy data from one Memory Card to another! The most typical reason is "This Data Cannot Be Copied!" or "This Data Cannot Be Moved!" I only wish that all Gamecube ... Read More:

Super Mario Sunshine

from: Nintendo

October 04, 2002
I bought this game to play on the Wii after having played Super Mario Galaxy to the bone and getting all 121 stars, which were indeed difficult and stressful to get but not at all compared to Super Mario Sunshine.

The game seems rushed and not well-finished at all. Surely Mario does look much better than the precarious Super Mario 64 design but the game looks like a testing beta version of itself. The graphics aren't great, the music is... just there, and the gameplay ranges from funnily easy to insanely difficult. Plus the cameras are almost manual and only turn by themselves when you're in tight situations, usually making you die.

Okay, lots of people like difficult stuff - as I do - but the difficulty of Mario Sunshine ... Read More:

Super Smash Bros Melee

from: Nintendo

May 24, 2002
I cannot get over how good this game actually is. Me and a group of friends have been playing this since it came out on multiplayer, and we just refuse to get bored of it, even now one of us has an Xbox 360 and Halo 3, Super Smash Bros finds itself in a gaming day routine everytime, without fail.
The single player is solid; classic mode, adventure mode, all star mode and event matches are just some of the choices on offer, and with so many characters to get used to, there's plenty of life in this game for a single player, but with this just on it's own, the game would be quite unremarkable. The game is designed with Multiplayer in mind, and you have everything you could possibly want at your disposal for it.
The frame rate is continually ... Read More:

GameCube Controller Purple (GameCube)

from: Nintendo

May 03, 2002
I had difficulty experiencing the Nintendo 64 Controller as it has three holding points, and you don't exactly know where to position you're hands! Luckily enough, when I got my Nintendo Gamecube, I got used to the Nintendo Gamecube Controller quickly and impressively without hassle.

You'll find that most of the buttons on the Gamecube controller are easily recognizable. Most of which are as featured from the Super Nintendo and Nintendo 64 Controllers and even the Gamecube's Controller mimic's a bit from the Microsoft XBox Controller!

The only cry I get with the controller is that the joystick, has these circles on top, which are a bit rough and can make your thumb have a itch or two. But I've found out the more you use the controller ... Read More:

Resident Evil (GameCube)

from: Capcom

September 13, 2002
Resident Evil for the PSX more or less shares responsibility with Shining Force and Final Fantasy VII for getting me hopelessly hooked on videogames in my early teens. However the laughable attempt to weave a gripping story through B-movie style dialogue was hard to take seriously, even back then. Sadly in this visually stunning remaking, the lousy narrative crushes the tension and seriousness of RE like a giant radioactive turtle would an Ice Cream Truck.

If you're a die hard resident evil fan, you've probably bought it, completed it, enjoyed/ignored the horrific dialogue and voice acting and bought the T-shirt. If you're looking for some classic horror to revive on your Wii, you could do a lot worse than Resident Evil (GC), but don't get your hopes ... Read More:

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii)

from: Nintendo

June 27, 2008
Super Smash Bros Brawl is a amazing game but there are some things that you should know before purchasing. This is not a normal combat game (Your heath does not go down it goes up, the higher Percentage the further you fly when hit.)
There is one thing that i think nintendo could do better.
Because what is the point of bringing out a new console with special features and not use them in one very good game
That does not change that it is a great game though.

Nintendo 59 Slot Memory Card (GameCube)

from: Nintendo

May 03, 2002
I first owned one of these Memory Card's when I first got the Nintendo Gamecube along with Luigi's Mansion! Having that alone was no problems, as Luigi's Mansion only requires 3 Blocks to save data! However, when I obtained more Nintendo Gamecube games, for example Super Mario Sunshine (7 Blocks Required), Super Smash Bros. Melee (11 Blocks Required Without Snapshots), Sonic Adventure 2 Battle (11 Blocks Required), and Pikmin (19 Blocks Required), I was at a stage thinking to myself "How the heck am I going to store all this saved data onto this small Memory Card, it's just Unreal! You need dozens of Memory Card's to do this!" This was however until I found the 251 Block Memory Card and to put it in my opinion, that 251 Block Memory Card saved my life!

My brother however, ... Read More:

Star Wars: Rogue Leader - Rogue Squadron II (GameCube)

from: Lucas Arts

May 03, 2002
I never owned a Gamecube, so I never got to play this game. I loved the prequal on the N64, and always thought that this game looked good, but just never got around to it. Now I own a Wii, the gateway to a plethora of retor games has opened before me and this is the first title checked off my "to buy" list. Of course, I had to buy a Gamecube remote and memory card - don't forget to grap those!

Anyway, this game looks fantastic (even now) and plays well. The controls are a little convoluted and tricky (I've no idea what my targetting computer efficiency score means and I've no idea how to improve it) but you get used to them. And this feels like Star Wars. It feels like your in the movies and it feels good.

In short, if you've bagged yourself a Wii, grab this ... Read More:
