I don't know, but it's the one I had the most enjoyable gaming experiences on.

the gamecube is a piece of shit and the reason I don't buy Nintendo products anymore.

Not a chance in hell.
It's massively OVERrated, if anything.

Not to say I don't love the little guy to death. Which I absolutely do.

GCN > PS2

But also...

DC > PS2
Xbox > PS2

It's funny how Sony can have the highest selling console in a generation, but they've never had the best console in any generation.

There was nothing special about it except for the 4 controller plugs.

Most of the 3rd party hits were ported to PS2.

its just rated

PS2 was the best for survival horror games. Beyond that, eh.

It's the REmake of the RE franchise
An amazing 10/10 game that didn't sell

Wii is RE4.
Great game, splits the fanbase and kills the franchise in the nicest way possible.

except RE4 is one of the top 10 action games ever made, and the Wii is a piece of shit that only got popular because of some shovelware garbage that soccer moms like to play with their 3 year olds.

Disputable. Wii had a decent set of exclusives all its own, had an on-console shop with a decent collection of older games that spanned several consoles, was easily jailbroken should you care for that sort of thing, AND it played Gamecube's library natively. Wii is actually pretty damn legit when you think about all of its capabilities. Now WiiU, that's fair game. It has a few good games here and there but every other Nintendo console stomps it.
>>
fuck no
it's decent, but all the faggots born after 97 think it's the greatest thing ever
>>
>>342437048
I disagree, but only for the Wii, and only because the Wii literally just a more powerful Gamecube
>>
No that would be the PS1
>>
>>342437728
This guy made a pretty decent list. I don't exactly agree with where everything is, but he gets all the greatest games on there so I'd say trust it.
>>
Nintendo made the Wii in direct response to the GameCube's failure. They needed a gimmick, motion control.
>>
>>342438357

Haha, fuck no. Everyone loves the PS1, and it had both the sales to prove it and the library to back it up.
>>
>>342436775
PS > N64 and PS3 > Wii. PS4 is shaping up to be better than the Wii U by miles considering the Wii U is already dead.

I would definitely agree that the quality of PS2 games wasn't anywhere near Gamecube on average, although it did have more games.

Phantasy Star Online ep1&2 is my favorite GC game and favorite game ever.

Sunshine, Melee, Double Dash, Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, FE: Path of Radiance, FF Chrystal Chronicles, Need for Speed Underground, Animal Crossing
>>
>>342438478

>PS3 > Wii

Eh, current PS3 > Wii. Prior to the 2010's, PS3 was the butt of the 7th gen. Now it's good but that's because the console and the games are pretty damn cheap while still getting a little support here and there.

GC is rated just fine. DC is way more underrated.
>>
>>342438627
Wii sold systems but didn't have a good selection of games to back it up. PS3 didn't start with a good selection of games, but eventually got there. If anything PS3 and Wii were tied in the beginning. The beginning isn't the only thing that matters though.

People suck the DC's cock like no tomorrow because it's cool and hip to. It sold poorly and had a few great games that nobody played so it's elevated to the status of impossibly hip. You'll never see anybody saying "LMAO the DC is so bad!! XD"

Really nigger, like nobody sucks the Gamecube's dick to this day because of emulation. Nobody talks about the Dreamcast except in threads like these so it's definitely more underrated.
>>
>>342439010
Dreamcast is actually one of the most overrated systems ever. I was a Dreamcast owner prior to SEGA's downfall and while I liked the system a lot back then, the way it's worshiped now is really annoying. I actually like the Gamecube more and in retrospect the Dreamcast was the worst console of its generation.
>>
That would be any other console
>>
>>342437728
good games there
some glaring omissions though
add kirby's air ride, gatcha force, and maybe go go hyper grind
>>
>>342439691
No one talks about the Dreamcast except those who owned it.

Which is less then 10 million people world wide.
>>
>>342439878

I found the list posted on /v/ like a year ago and the guy was in the process of playing games, if they're not on there assume he didn't play them yet.

>Wii sold systems but didn't have a good selection of games to back it up.

Wii had plenty of games throughout its lifespan. Almost none of them sold due to the console's reputation and it didn't have many multiplats but it had some games.

>Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2
>Metroid Prime 3/Trilogy
>Trauma Center Second Opinion/New Blood/Team
>Zack & Wiki
>Elebits
>Monster Hunter Tri
>Super Smash Bros. Brawl
>No More Heroes 1 & 2
>Sin & Punishment 2
>Red Steel 2
>Muramasa The Demon Blade
>Fragile Dreams
>Pandora's Tower
>Xenoblade Chronicles
>The Last Story
>Kirby's Return to Dreamland
>Donkey Kong Country Returns

Oh shit, I forgot based Tatsunoko vs. Capcom in that list. Oh well.
>>
>>342440118
oh, okay
was wondering why that box on the right says TBA
>>
>>342440137
>ports
Seriously going there? It isn't okay for the PS4, and it isn't okay when Nintendo does it either. Once you take those out, the list starts not looking that long. Also, as much as people want to try and pretend Brawl was a good game, it introduced tripping and more importantly smash balls. That much randomness is bad for a competitive game. Randomness is the reason Mario Party has gone to hell.
>>
>>342440854

Second Opinion and Trilogy are the only ports there, at least relative to their time of release. Shattered Memories was a multiplat as well. The rest are bona fide exclusives during the console's heyday, though admittedly some have been ported in the years since.
