The Gamecube is Nintendo’s fourth game console, and it found itself in direct competition with the original Xbox and the PlayStation 2. While the GameCube was unable to compete with the hugely successful PlayStation 2 thanks to its built-in DVD player and third-party support, it did have many fantastic games.
Unfortunately, there are many games that were released on the GameCube that have yet to see a release elsewhere, causing them to be stuck on the console. With Nintendo remaking many of their classic games, there is a possibility that we may see a remake or remaster of some of the games on this list, but only time will tell.
10 Odama
The Nintendo GameCube had a few very odd accessories, with the mic being one of them. The mic was used for Mario Party 6 & 7, Chibi-Robo!, Karaoke Revolution, and Odama, with the latter possibly having the most unique use for it.
Odama is a pinball game where you guide your army of soldiers with voice commands so they bring the bell, or the Ninten-bell, to the other end of the screen. The pinball, called the Odama, can destroy enemies and their buildings as well as hit the Ninten-bell, which will knock over all of the enemy soldiers.
9 Wario World
Wario World was developed by Treasure, the team behind Ikaruga and Gunstar Heroes. It’s a platformer/beat ‘em up hybrid where you guide Wario through levels to collect treasure. The premise of the game is that Wario’s money has all turned into monsters, and to get it to revert back to cold, hard cash he needs to take them out.
Wario can punch and butt-stomp on enemies, as well as pick them up and throw them into other enemies. Each level consists of three parts, with all of them ending in a boss battle.
8 Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is the second game in the Paper Mario series that started on the Nintendo 64. Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door tackles many subjects that other games in the series tend to avoid, like the death of a loved one and similarly dark themes. Like other Mario RPGs, in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door battles play out in a way not unlike the battle systems in a Final Fantasy game. There’s turned based combat, but you are able to time button presses when attacking or defending to make things turn in your favor.
7 The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventure
The very first multiplayer The Legend of Zelda game, Four Swords Adventure can be played with up to three other friends or on your own. However, to play multiplayer, you need 2 or more Game Boy Advances, Link Cables, and multiple copies of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past and Four Swords for the Game Boy Advance.
If the game were to be rereleased, they could make playing with more than one player more feasible by adding online or couch co-op with a second controller.
6 Super Smash Bros. Melee
Super Smash Bros. Melee is the second Super Smash Bros. game and it adds many elements that are still being used in the most recent iterations of the series. Many new characters were added that weren’t included in the previous entry like Mewtwo, Falco Lombardi, Ganondorf, and more.
Also added to Super Smash Bros. Melee are trophies that include characters from across the entirety of Nintendo’s history, even featuring many characters that weren’t added to the game in full. The game is very popular in the competitive fighting game community and is still played heavily to this day.
5 Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes
Like the Resident Evil remake for the GameCube, Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes is a remake of Metal Gear Solid which was originally released for the PlayStation. Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes is a stealth action game with a heavy emphasis on the story. The game was made using the same engine as Metal Gear Solid 2.
While most of the game remains the same as the original, there is unique recorded dialogue as well as small Nintendo related easter eggs, like Mario and Yoshi statues and a GameCube hidden away in an office.
4 Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem
Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem is a very ambitious game that takes inspiration from Resident Evil and the weird Eldritch tales of H.P. Lovecraft. Each chapter of the game is played with a different character in a different era, with each character finding the book of the dead – the Necronomicon. When encountering monsters in the game, your sanity meter drains. Once it reaches zero the game uses some very creative ways to scare you and make you feel as if it’s you who is going insane by creating illusions, such as cleverly providing the impression that your GameCube has turned off, or that your save has been deleted. It even goes so far as to try and trick you into believing your television has been muted.
3 Super Mario Sunshine
Super Mario Sunshine changes up a lot of things from its predecessor. One of the biggest things added to Sunshine that wasn’t in Super Mario 64 is F.L.U.D.D. It’s a jet pack that allows Mario to spray his enemies with water and allows him to hover in the air for a short period of time.
The game takes place in a tropical paradise called Isle Delfino, with each level taking place on a different part of the island such as the theme park, the hotel, and other charming locations.
2 F-Zero GX
The final entry to be released in the series, F-Zero GX takes the fast, futuristic racing established in previous titles and perfects it. Each track requires a generous amount of skill and good knowledge of the track if you want to finish in first place.
There are numerous characters to choose from, all with their own ship, stats, and back story. There are a few different game modes including the Grand Prix mode, with each cup offering varying difficulty. The Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, and Diamond cups all becoming increasingly difficult as you move further down the line.
1 Mario Kart: Double Dash
Mario Kart: Double Dash tries something entirely new with the series. Rather than having a single racer, you have two. This feeds into the stat system that is heavily emphasized in the game. If you choose two medium-sized characters you’ll have more balanced stats – add heavy characters and you’ll have higher top speeds and won’t get knocked off the track as easily, or if you add lighter characters then your acceleration stats will increase. There are many different combinations, so you can create something that perfectly suits your play style.
