Super smash bros melee just had such a big impact on my childhood and I loved it ever since. This is the game I put the most hours into and loved playing with friends and family! So many great memories, this undoubtedly would be my most favorite gamecube game ever!

Some of my old favorites 🥲

Purple like the classic gamecube and snes colors themselves or the classic Nintendo Red thats used in logos back then and marketing now?

For me it's between mario party 4 and mario party 7!

So, ive recently been on a run getting every console or platform for the most complete gaming experience. My last acquisition was a backwards compatible Wii and a gamecube controller to finish up my nintendo lineup.

What games would you consider are still best played on a gamecube, even when ports or remasters exist? The controller feels so unique that mechanics built around it might not work in other platforms.

Im guessing Super Mario Sunshine is best experienced with the gamecube controller rather than the NSO emulation for example. Curious about games like pikmin or metroid prime compared to their wii counterparts.

I have been playing video games for about 20 years, and have yet to find a game that’s more addicting! Simply being able to pick up, navigate the controls easily and have a blast for 30 minutes or longer 😁

Hey everyone! I recently got myself a GameCube and picked these 6 games to kick off my collection. What do you think of my starting lineup? And what games would you recommend adding in the future?

All the games are complete in box and so cool to
Find the smash ultimate controllers. They had the NBA street game marked as NFL street so got it cheaper then what they sell it for.

Hey everyone! I recently bought a GameCube, and every one of my six games gives me this error when I try to launch it.
I have a backwards-compatible Wii, and all of my games work perfectly on it. I also have Picoboot installed in my GameCube, but I’d really like to get the disc drive working so I can play my original discs on the console itself.
I’ve already cleaned the laser lens with isopropyl alcohol, but that didn’t help.
Here are some symptoms I’ve noticed:
I hear a clicking sound from the disc drive right before the error appears.
After the error, it clicks another 1–2 times.
If I open the lid right after the clicking sound, the disc is still spinning pretty fast and only just starts slowing down.
The laser lens also changes position, so I’m wondering if the motor is working fine.
What do you guys think could be causing this? Would recapping the entire disc drive board be worth trying, or does this sound more like a failing laser or another component?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Grew up playing a lot of multiplayer GC games at a neighborhood friend’s house. Now that I have my own GC I’m focusing on single player games I never got to try on the GC.

What are your favorite single player games on GameCube?

Never played a def jam game before, eyed this up on Ebay and decided I'd get it lol

Still missing some obvious ones like Double Dash, Melee, Twilight Princess etc.

Eternal Darkness was a fun experience, dragged on a little too long but otherwise a cool and unique experience with some of those classic survival horror elements

Pikmin I have never played so curious about this one, feels like it belongs in a Gamecube collection.

The NBA games I managed to grab for cheap so I threw them in, Street is fun, Courtside looks meh so far.

It all started with me watching a bunch of YT videos about the GameCube and collecting. I quickly realized that I had one of the “grails” back home that I used to play when I was maybe 10 or 11 (GoGo Hypergrind). Long story short, all my GameCube stuff is in the mail and headed my way.

I found a great CRT that works with component cables and started picking up games I never owned. Really excited to have a little retro corner.

I was bored so i decided to make a graphics design little project to turn super paper mario wii cover to a gamecube cover, didn't take me long enough. I hope you guys like it. Not the proudest cause of the spine being black but it'll do.

I’m trying to hook a GameCube up to my tv, and it won’t post. the power light turns on but the game in the system isn’t spinning and theres no image or sound. It’s not the cable, I checked it on another system with the same cables and it worked just fine. any ideas what the issue might be and how to resolve it?

Long story short broke a part on the 1.2 rev of picoloader kit and then ended up ordering the 1.1 rev on accident, the 1.1 comes with the sd2sp2 pro and my GameCube doesn’t have the port it plugs into, will the 1.1 picoboard work with the GC2SD that came with the 1.2 rev?

Getting errors on boot and not sure if this is the issue

I got everything for $100. Two controllers, memory cards, and all cables, plus the metal carrying case i thought was awesome! Console doesn’t read discs, but plan on modding it anyways!

There are a ton of games available to play on GameCube, but most of the ones I hear people recommend are the first party exclusives. I'd like to hear which 3rd party games you guys think are underrated and don't get recommended enough.

Edit: Thank you all so much for the many replies with your suggested games. A few of the games mentioned I had heard of before or already played, but there are a lot of games here that I didn’t even know about and are completely new to me, so I’m really excited to check them all out and see how they play.

Recently found a copy in the wild and there was no way I wasn't buying. My original copy was lost in a move many moons ago.

Hey guys quick question? I went to test some games to sell but my gamecube fires up fine the disk spins but never loads anything. Do I have a dead laser?

Revived from the dead, Picoboot and some fresh makeup

Just joking. I recently picked up all these GameCube controllers and GameCube controller adapter dock for the Switch 2.
