Was the GameCube the best system Nintendo made?

It was the last one before they went full gimmick mode

Well since the wii is literally a GameCube with more games I'm gonna say it's the wii.

It was the comfiest

Great system

>>378358457
It is probably one of the worst ones along with the Wii U and Virtual Boy.
People love it just for the rampant gen 6 nostalgia that is exploding in the last years.

After 2009 Nintendo went to shit in light speed

>>378358863
Had gimmicks but nobody gives a fuck, even nintendo itself

>>378358863
Every Nintendo console pre-Wii had side gimmicks or experiments that were never required and maybe like 1% of games actually implemented them. It's hardly the same.

What do you think the Heaven Beetle had on its tiny beetle Sega Genesis?
Also, do you think the Earth Beetle had a tiny beetle SNES?

>>378359843
lets see
didn't both NESs have a gameboy player? And the N64 had the transfer pak

>>378358863
Literally every Nintendo console had a gimmick, the Wii was the first time the entire console was the gimmick though.

>>378358457
>Start going to /v/ in late 2005
>I loved my GameCube
>Most on /v/ either hated it or disregarded it

And now all the kids that had GameCubes are grown up and all serious about it maybe being Nintendo's best. Not the worst that could happen to this place, I guess.

>>378360238
You need to brush up on your retro console knowledge, friend. Gimmicks aren't anything new to Nintendo. What's new is them being a requirement, though.

The SNES had a function where a dedicated radio station would stream special games (like BS Zelda and others) that ran on a realtime clock and could only be played at specific times

The N64 had a similar experiment where there was very, very limited online play and connectability, but it never went anywhere.

The Famicom, AKA the Japanese NES, had a ton of weird gimmicks tried for it as well.

I'm missing some others, too, I remember there were like several different attachments that they made for the N64

Point being, Gamecube was by far the start of weird gimmicks, but the Wii was the first to make the weird gimmick the focus.

>>378358457
>What is the SNES

>>378358863
how are gba connection cables a gimmick?
How are the micro cds a gimmick?

>>378358457

IMO SNES was the best Nintendo console followed by a tie between GC and N64 than the Wii, NES, Wii U. Haven't tried the Switch so no comment on where it places.

>>378358457
>that copy of animal crossing

Nice.

>>378358457
no, the wii was.

because it can play gamecube games, with gamecube controlers.

along with emulating every legacy console and being able to play every game.

and it was simple a fuck to homebrew.

>>378360497
The Playstation was made from an aborted deal with Sony to make an add on for the N64, correct?
Or was that the Philips CDI?

Neither. The Playstation was originally a console made by both Sony and Nintendo's combined efforts. The older models of it had Nintendo's name on it.

I wanna know the reasoning behind N64 being behind Wii U. I can only guess that you aren't talking about game quality.

>>378362695

Is this barneybait? I can almost tell from the way it's cropped.

I'd argue yes but then I've got no personal love for the NES, I was a Genesis kid growing up so I'm biased on that, I think the N64 sucks ass and is hideously overrated, I don't even gotta say anything about the Wii, and while the Wii U was definitely a good system it died way too soon (I don't even mean this March, literally the only game of note after 2014 was Splatoon) to really compete.

It's my bias, but the GameCube in my opinion has one of the best video game controllers ever designed, it's number 2 or 3 for me.

>>378358863
The mini dvds were because of Nintendo's paranoia about piracy and they felt the mini dvds would greatly reduce piracy. Not a gimmick.

The GBA connection thing was a side accessory thing that wasn't integral to or a base component of the console.

Perhaps the most "gimmicky" thing about the console was its handle. Otherwise it's a great console.

>>378363961
Yeah, if you're gonna consider the GameBoy Player a gimmick, you might as well call Kinect and Move completely new consoles.

>>378358457
Not even close. The SNES is the best system of all time. Still love the GCN but it's tied for 2nd best Nintendo system with the n64.

>Yamauchi touted the GameCube as a machine designed exclusively to be a video game console, an approach which he considered different from Microsoft’s and Sony’s for their respective Xbox and PlayStation 2 consoles (both of which have DVD and CD-ROM playback functionalities, while the Xbox also features a built-in hard drive). This emphasis towards "performance only" and the creation of hardware that would allow developers to "easily create games" is what Yamauchi believed would set the GameCube apart from its competitors.
>Yamauchi also wanted the machine to be the least expensive of its kind, in his belief that people "do not play with the game machine itself. They play with the software, and they are forced to purchase a game machine in order to use the software. Therefore the price of the machine should be as cheap as possible." Nintendo hence priced the GameCube significantly less expensively than its rivals in the market, although the console’s games were priced identically to those designed for the competing systems.

Gamecube was meant to be a games first console, and it was killed by the PS2 with its cheap DVD player and easy piracy which made it popular among third-worlders. Good job breaking Nintendo, no wonder they decided to focus on a new target audience with the Wii.

>>378361782
How is DS higher than 3DS? And GCN higher than Wii?

>>378365414
Yeah, as much as I hate hearing Nintenbros bitch about 'Sony ponies', it really was he PS2's fault.

>>378365414
I had a ps2 because I'm a third worlder, I had no means at all to buy a gamecube here, but now that no one cares about them and they are argueably cheap, I got one, and boy oh boy, am I having fun.

>>378365414
This. I'm sick of gamers bitching about how Nintendo "betrayed" them with the Wii. You fuckers were never loyal in the first place.

Gaming would be better off if Sony never even made it to the PS2. It's not like PlayStation systems actually BRING anything to the table. the games on them would've just been released somewhere else. The systems themselves are generic garbage.

Ever since the PS2, they've been a parasite on the industry. There was never room for them. The backlash against their hubris with the PS3 proved that.

It's definitely my favorite.

the gamecube is so fucking overrated. half you people who think it's nintendo's best console are probably people who had it as your first console or something. yeah, there were a good amount of quality games, but it had bad third party and just didn't have AS MANY quality games as the SNES.

Objectively wrong.

The correct order:
SNES > N64 > 3DS > Wii > GBA > GC > GB/GBC > DS > NES > Wii U > VB

Rating factors:
Quality > Innovation > Backwards Compatible > Quantity > Nostalgia > Multiplayer > Portability

Wii only places so high because of the backwards compatibility with GC.

Too early days for Switch but currently I'd place it between Wii and GBA if only because the lack of games. It's on the way to placing better than N64 and if it gets a simple enough softmod and decent homebrew community it'll even replace SNES.

Any other order is wrong, period. You can't dispute this.

>>378367807
>being this mad you were too young to play the gamecube

>>378367926
i was an n64 babby and had the cube when i got older fammer. also, the n64 is a worse console than the gamecube, yeah.

>>378367807
I love the irony of your greentext as if you're trying to portray us as the retards.
>le XD

first nintendo console to feature a controller that wasn't absolute shit

>>378365835
Granted the PS2 has a great library now, but that's mainly because it snowballed hard and publishers tend to gravitate towards the system that sells the most. The same thing happened with the Famicom/NES, it has ALL the third party games. The same thing is slowly happening with the PS4 now too, the main thing saving the Xbone is it's so easy to make games for.

>>378368201
you are the retard if you honestly think the gamecube is the best nintendo console. like, i don't even dislike the gamecube, i like it a lot, it's just clear to me that it's not the best nintendo has made. the 3ds has a better game library ffs.

>>378368425
God I wish more people paid attention to the Wii U. I really wanted that thing to succeed and I'm salty to no end that PS4 just coasted to victory this gen because of its brand.

Around the time it came out? Sure. I'd say WiiU is probably the best one now simply because it can play WiiU, WIi and GC games

>>378368343
You're 3 consoles off dumbass.

>>378368586
Should Nintendo coast because of its brand? And you say that but Sony did a lot of damage to their rep with the PS3 before it. Its done ok for itself on its own i think.

>>378367531
>Gaming would be better off if Sony never even made it to the PS2. It's not like PlayStation systems actually BRING anything to the table. the games on them would've just been released somewhere else.

Most of the best games on the PS1 literally could not have been ported to the N64 because cartridges just didn't have enough space even if you used multiple, which would then cost a fortune to produce.
The things playstation evolved was always storage media. First with CDs, then DVDs, and ultimately blurays.
It also had the only controller that wasn't abject garbage until the 360 came out and actually gave it some competition.

so we are just gonna pretend the saturn doesnt exist? ok

>>378368462
3DS has the better third party library by far. But the first party games on Gamecube are much better than those on 3DS.

>>378358457
this is a barneyfag bait thread isn't it?

>>378369525
The saturn had garbage hardware, though.
Sure, it used CDs too, but all the games looked like shit.
Better 2D, though. That's a plus.

>>378368937
So much more could've been done with the Wii U that people didn't even try. Could you imagine Jackbox games on that thing? Or a new Trauma Center? Or that Penny Arcade concept of the GamePad player being DM for a DnD game with others using Wiimotes? Hell, the opportunity to push it as the Wii HD everyone wanted with the Wiimote Plus as standard?

We got none of that and now the Wii U's only legacy is that of a laughingstock. That's not fair. It's just fucking wasted potential.

Chalk that up to using quads as its primitives instead of tris. Saturn was meant more as a 2D system, I think. Even PS1 was, it just fared better because it used tris. Only N64 was really built for 3D out of those three.

>>378367807
GC isn't overrated like the N64 and SNES were. It's been the most hated main Nintendo console before the Wii U happened.

The original Playstation and the Gameboy Color were my first console and handheld, respectively. I've played on the N64 at my cousin's as well as friend's houses in the late 90s. Later on I got the GameCube, which was a clearly superior machine to the PS2. A lot of my friends had PS2s then and they mocked me for having a GameCube, so I grew defensive about it.

>>378369730
It definitely wasn't as popular as PS2 but I had a ton of friends with a GC. Maybe you just didn't have many friends.

>>378369924
for the last few years kiddos who were born in 1999 have worshiped the gamecube. this shit gets constantly pushed down my throat. "dae gamecube was the best console?" "dae gamecube was underappreciated in its time?" "dae comfy???"

>>378358457

>>378369924
>>378370093
also the n64 was hated for a long time because its controller is weird and bad and people circlejerked over the playstation. even from the beginning of the gamecube's lifespan it's had a better reputation than the n64.

>>378369752
You could still use phones with the Wii U, but the GamePad would've been great for stuff like that drawing game.

And it doesn't make sense why it didn't get it, because even the Wii got YDKJ 2011.

>>378367403

Literally no one born on or after 1999 has an opinion about Nintendo worth listening to. When console 3D is older than you are your opinion is worth nothing.

>>378358863
>GBA connect cables

that's like calling the SNES a gimmick console because of the Super Game Boy. it's just an add-on/accessory to the console itself.

So what? It WAS underappreciated for its time. Most Nintendo systems are. People are too busy throwing their money at the PlayStation Another One and let Nintendo's system languish until they finally buy a used one and games at the end of the generation, and that's if they don't just pirate outright once they get the system for like $70. But no one had any problem paying full price $400 for the PS4 and giving Sony that mad moolah for a hackjob of a console.

The Cube is easily my least favorite Nintendo console.

>>378370093
Can't really blame them if it's their first console. It's in their nature since most of the GameCube worshipers are just starting college and are at peak annoyance levels. They are the children of the 6th generation. I mean, I kind of did that shit in 2010ish with the original PlayStation.

GameCube was a solid console but I would honestly place it as the 3rd best Nintendo console, after SNES and Wii. The original PlayStation was my first console and while I do have an attachment to it, I'm no longer going to pretend it was the greatest thing ever.

>>378370661

>>378358773
Since the Wii U is literally a Wii with even more games I'm gonna say it's the Wii U.

Gamecube+Wii+WiiU+NES+SNES+N64+DS+GBA games == best Ninty console

>>378370804
Just imagine that no game exists after it came out and the light humor it uses wasn't overplayed to death and back by the likes of "Cake is lie xDxD". It's a good game.

Although with games like Mario 64 you don't need to do anything or imagine anything for it to still be master class. So yeah, TYD is just a OK game.

Question for those born in 1997(cusp of Millennials and Gen Z).

Do you associate your childhood more closely with Millennial things like Gamecube, Blockbuster, Jimmy neutron, Yu gi oh, PS1, PS2, N64, Drake and Josh, Pokemon Gens 1-3, Gorillaz, Discman, Malcolm in the middle, Cyberchase, Tamagotchi, Osmosis Jones, original Ben 10(came out in 2005 so it barely slips in), Kim Possible, and having crushes on Avril lavigne, Britney spears, Jenny wakeman, and the Dark magician girl?

Or Gen Z things like streaming movies on Netflix, CN Real, Hannah Montana, PS3, Wii, Xbox 360, Bakugan, The Dark knight, Pokemon Gens 4-6, Justin Bieber, Twilight, Chowder, Marvelous misadventures of Flapjack, Adventure Time, Silly bandz, and having crushes on Justin bieber, Harry styles, and "qt thick cream-filled cutebois" - NOT girls, because Vice told you it was "hip" and "cool" to be homosexual?

>>378371432
Not in the slightest, but you and fuckface number 2 back there were insisting they're massive on /v/ and the name itself is indicative of some sort of e-celeb.
I can assume a podcast by the Mondays bit, but that's the most I can gather
Again, I'm sorry you think everyone you know gets their info from your stupid fucking e-celebs

>>378366525

>>378371464
They're all the rage with the under-18 reddit crowd. I don't see it as any different than the people that used to read those tabloid magazines about real celebrities and watch filth like TMZ.

>>378371565
Millennial is farther back than 97, you fucking retarded millennial.

>>378371565
Im early millennial but half your first list is way too focused on early 2000s and the last few years of the 90s. true millennials are very 90s centric.

2000 tends to be our convenient childhood cutoff date because how big of a fucking deal adults made it out to be, although we usually have it pushed to maybe 2002.

>>378371604
The level of passion you have to prove to people you clearly think are useless that you don't care about e-celebs and reddit is admirable. Keep fighting the good fight! You're making huge progress! No compensation issues here at all!

I'd the GB and the SNES were the best

>>378372668
I haven't watched tv in 6 years, so I wouldn't know.

>>378372526
The millennials are like 1985-1992. I don't know why all the Zschoolers are acting like their brains instantly were conscious enough to experience the 90s as soon as they were born.

You have to at least be 4-5 to have significant memories and feelings of nostalgia, so anything later than 1993 is suspect. Thats old enough to JUST catch Pokemon and N64 memories as well as remember a pre-9/11 world.

>dreamcast also known as the greatest console of all time
Most people actually consider it a pile of turd. You're just delusional. I'll wait here as you tell me what exclusive games made it good. What was Dreamcast's "Mario 64"?

>>378371565

97fag here

Definitely the first list, I feel like I watched more Drake and Josh than anyone ever needs to

>>378372747
>nogaems
Since you're a meme spouting little shit, I doubt you were even alive to experience the SNES or Gameboy.

greatest console of all time. the last true console that was for the hardcore gamers (like myself). gaming died when the dreamcast died!!!!

>>378372898
the first list is shit made by psuedo millennials to feel like the cool kids. No millennial see Disney Channel's live action peak as part of their childhood.

We had ABC's TGIF and WE FUCKING LIKE IT

>>378372834
Fucking this.
I was born in 84 and I don't associate with literally anything from the 80's with the only exception being music.

I'm an actual "90's" kid. And yeah, it was awesome. Which is why kids born in the 90s want to pretend they were a part of it. Shame the 00s were ass.

>>378373012

Drake and Josh was Nickelodeon you dweeb.

Last Airbender was my shit.

>>378372953
>What makes it great?

>>378372834
No, they're 1980-1982 to 1995-1997. A generation has to be 15 years, 7 is too short.

I'd compromise at a decade. 15 years is way too fucking long. By 7 years I mean the "full" millennial experience.

>>378373041
But he didn't say anything about 90s kids. Most of the things listed were early-to-mid 2000s things, like Jimbles nobotron and the Ps2

There was something so gratifying about having a game system shaped like a lunchbox.

You can just burn dreamcast games. Hell you can load them off an sd card with your console booting linux

>>378373409
>Most of the things listed were early-to-mid 2000s things
2000 is considered the childhood cutoff for millennials, hence the name. I was 12 during 2000 and although I squeezed out a little bit more nostalgia into the early 2000s it was not the same thing as the 90s childhood.

>>378373170
>A generation has to be 15 years
As said by the generation police. I'll give you a pro-tip, it doesn't exist. At best a generation should be for each massive shift in technology or ideologies.
I'd say the generation most think of as 90s kids are early 80s to very early 90s.

There was another shift in around 1996 where the internet became popular so it's broken it up too much to be a relevant generation so kids born around 1996 sort of had to pick a side. Most pick "90s" cause it's just better.

>>378372908
I still have my original brick GB from 90, but okay.

>>378358457
GAME CUBE!? MORE LIKE GAY CUBE DUDE LMAO! PLAY PS2 BRO THAT'S A REAL CONSOLE LOLOLOLOLOLOL!

>>378373663
There is no reason to try an be a millennial, we are a pretty awful generation. Our childhood media was subversive and Jewish as shit and 90% of us turned into full fledged marxists SJWs permachildren.

I rip on Gen Z like a young sibling, but you guys are much better people as a whole and when you get to be middle-aged you will hopefully sort out the shit us millinials broke.

>>378372834
>>378373041
>>378373170
>>378373393
Generations are broken into roughly 16-18 year blocks, not 7. They are defined by major historical events and birthrates, not media. It's 18 because that's when people become adults and tend to start families. Under your definition of millennial, you are placing Gen X in a 21 year block, and Gen Z in a 24 year block, which is absurd. You're suggesting Gen Z started in 1993 and is still ongoing.

It's broken down like this
1928-1945 Silents
1946-1964 Boomers
1965-1981 Gen X
1982-1999 Gen Y/Millennials
2000-2017 Gen Z
2018- ????

>>378373661
Birth years 1980-1995 is millennials.

I'd say 2000 was the childhood cutoff for early millennials, but 2006 was the childhood cutoff for LATE Millennials; in 2006, shows like Malcolm in the middle and Yu Gi Oh ended, social media started getting big, and stuff like Hannah Montana started coming in.

>>378359843
Name a gommick for the SNED... I cant think of one. And my first nintendo console was the NED with power pad and light gun. Im sure there prob was for snes but i never saw one that anyone owned.

>>378373927
>>378373913
Maybe it would help to distinguish gen y as "young millennials" and anyone born after 95 as actual millennials (who are currently college aged SJW nutters)

There is just too much of a social difference because f how quickly society shifted in the late 90s/ early 2000s compared to the slower and more old world late 80s/early 90s

>>378373913
There is no generation because nuclear war breaks out this year and kills everyone. The Jews who started the naming scheme planned it all along.

>>378373913
>They are defined by major historical events and birthrates
No, that's how those you agree with the most define them. They aren't defined at all and at best we attribute definition however we see fit. Stop acting like a bloody scholar on /v/, you look like an idiot.

>the GBA Player attachment for the GC is a gimmick

The fuck is wrong with you?

>>378367907
Doesn't the Wii have a shop where you can buy old NES and SNES games?

>>378375245
if you can count games you can emulate on a console then 3ds is easily the best handheld nintendo has made, get GB, NES, SNES games on virtual console, buy a cheapy DS flash card for GBA games, and then you also have the entire DS library right there and then you get into 3DS exclusive shit.

>>378375245
Some of them, yeah. It's also quite easy to modify to have all of the NES/SNES games. Unfortunately the vast amount of shovelware crap thrown onto the Wii brings down its overall rank. It's also too difficult to connect the correct controller to truly enjoy SNES/NES. Overall though the Wii ranked so well in my list because it's an excellent console to have, it's only demoted by the fact that the actual Wii Library is terrible.

No, simply the one you grew up with.

>>378375384
>if you can count games you can emulate on a console then 3ds is easily the best handheld
>emulate on a console then 3ds is easily the best handheld
>console; best handheld

DS is the best handheld emulator but Wii is the best emulator
Wii plays Wii, GC, SNES, NES, Genesis, Atari... etc. Wii is superior to DS for emulation, unless you think the DS library is better than the Wii/GC library combined.

>>378375384
Then Wii U is the best because it can literally play every Nintendo game except 3ds games. Including new Zelda

>>378375806
Wii U seems quite difficult to softmod. Still too risky last I checked. Wii is bloody easy.

Its not hard at all. It's literally going to a website and installing hackchi.

>>378375745
The only sucky thing about the Wii is no GBA player, I loved playing GBA games on the TV. Too bad the nature of the DS and 3DS made it impossible to make a similar console attachment.

>>378376126
Is it permanent? I recall these browser hacks requiring you to go to a site every time. Not worth the hassle.

>>378371117
>no 1080 Avalanche or NFS: Hot Pursuit 2
Disgusting.
>>378375384
Never was a fan of handheld games, but I see the point.
>>378374163
This. The gap between 1985-1995 and 1996-onward is probably a bigger gap than late millennials and Gen Z.

>>378358457
In my opinion? Absolutely

I really wish nintendo would release anither console like, then they could focus on the games instead of the gimmicks

>>378376126
>>378376224
Doesn't this brick the Wii U? Or at least prevent you from playing online?

>>378376224
You have to click the hackchi app whenever you want to use the hacked side, but its installed on the system forever

The wii wins off of a fluke. It can play all the old gamecube titles, and is compatible with the gamecube controller, and it can used as an emulator for any old nintendo games (and more if you're not complete pleb).

However, anything exclusive the wii is weak shit compared to the gamecube. The wii is only good because it brought everything good about the gamecube with it.

>>378371001
Wii U can't play GC games though.

>>378358457
GCNfagglets and Wiitards all need to be holocausted to the very last one of them.
