Okay so what the hell did you guys play that was so much better?

The Tony Hawk games are universally celebrated even by non-skaters.

SCII is an iconic fighting game and generally recognized as the peak of the series.

The 007 games were the Call of Duty of the day.

Prince of Persia was a top 5 series that defined the 6th gen.

Nintendo's exclusives during the GameCube era were weak as hell. You had Melee but then a bunch of really forgettable stuff. Pikmin never took off and became a staple franchise, Mario Sunshine is the weakest of the 3D Marios, Luigi's Mansion was unique but still just a minor spin off, and Wind Waker was polarizing.

Because of the bolded, this is probably the worst post on CE at the moment.

You got your ass handed to you in a topic like this before when you tried to make the case that the GC had a bad library. There's a reason why it is mentioned in the same breath as the PS2 nowadays, while the original Xbox is not.

Yeah, thats pretty bad. Two great Zelda games with WW and TP. Amazing Metroid games in Prime 1 and 2. Mario Sunshine was a solid 3D Mario. Super Smash Bros Melee, Eternal Darkness, Mario Kart DD, etc etc

The first-party lineup for GameCube was outstanding. If you werent interested in Nintendo exclusives, why wouldnt you just get a PS2 or Xbox??

Twilight Princess was one of my favorite games of all time, but I had that on Wii.

I had Metroid Prime: Hunters on DS. Another great game.

At 8-11 years old, I had no interest in other Nintendo exclusives. I was too old for the kiddie appeal and too young for the nostalgia appeal. I got a GameCube because I had stuck with Nintendo before and just continued with it, and because PS2 was a basic bitch system and Xbox controllers were too big for my child hands.

Melee is fun for people of all skill levels and has a surprising level of depth.

It's still just a fighting game.

No it isnt

Then you had the vastly inferior version.

The kiddie thing is so goddamn exaggerated.

Nah. It was slightly better if anything. Better graphics (16:9 widescreen instead of 4:3 tube ratio), and better aiming because of the Wiimote.

The only things critics seem to come up with are "the waggle attacking!" which is admittedly inferior but totally workable, and "it's mirrored!" which is of 0% consequence when you've never played the unmirrored version to get confused with in the first place.

It's not a barrier to having fun at all but it makes the games seem unappealing from a distance.

I don't believe there are casual bros on gamefaqs. The reason you're on this site in the first place is so you can discuss games more indepth than you'd normally can irl.
