At long last, the Pikmin have returned for a third outing, this time on Nintendo's newest console, which incidentally is struggling as much as
the Gamecube did, if not more.
Nintendo and its system were labeled as «kiddie,» a completely pointless and just blatantly ignorant observation based on the fact that
the GameCube did not have Halo or some such pew pew shooter.
While the GameCube didn't launch with a true Mario game, it did get one within a year of release.
Why isnt it failing like
gamecube did?
But if we imagine that the original Wii was an anomaly in the general trend, and if we imagine that the WiiU ends up selling between 20 - 35 % less than
the Gamecube did, then the WiiU might sell 13.65 - 16.8 million consoles if allowed to be sold for the usual 5 - 6 year period.
The Xbox was unproven since it was Microsoft's first console and the GameCube didn't really have to many games worth mentioning
gamecube did nt sell well though, PS2 beat it.
Back in the early days of the GameCube I didn't have access to the Internet and often found myself purchasing games blindly off the shelf taking a gamble without any knowledge of what I was about to play.

If you don't have a
Gamecube, go buy one then buy this game.
When I first started playing the Metroid Prime series it was on the Wii... and then I laid my eyes on the
GameCube version of this game... At first i didn't like it because I kept dying, but I learned were to go and what to
do... and now I can't play this game without completing it 100 %... If you get the chance to pick up this game or even the Wii version, Metroid Prime Trilogy,
do it...
If you are, for some reason, just now getting a
gamecube and you don't have this in your collection, I have one of two things for you to
do.
The game's story is somewhat non-existent, the controls feel a little bit awkward for a
gamecube controller (But Retro studios and Nintendo still
did the effort and I congratulate them) and the fact that you get to explore the same areas for the 3th or 4th time can be a little frustrating and boring.
If you have a
Gamecube but don't have enough money to get this game, trade in all your other games and get this one.
If you don't own a
GameCube and own a Wii, you can also play this in the Metroid Prime Trilogy which that game will be affected by scores from games like this and its sequels.

They're both great games I would prefer a Super Luigi Sunshine since it's the year of luigi and he didn't appear in the
gamecube game
I still have it on
GameCube, but didn't really like it that much...... not a big fan of Galaxy either, but would rather have Galaxy 3 than Sunshine 2... however, from what I recall they said the new 3D Mario game entirely.....

I remember being all excited about a new Tetris game on the
GameCube but then when I finally played it, it didn't feel so much like Tetris...
Peach's classic main dress had a sash around the waist instead of panniers and was darker pink below her knees, but otherwise
does not differ greatly from the modern / current main dress introduced with the
GameCube - era games, starting with Super Mario Sunshine and Mario Party 4, although the subsequent Paper Mario: The Thousand - Year Door installment marked the original dress's final appearance.
Featuring crisp visuals and classic beat -»em - up gameplay, the game was a welcome addition to the
GameCube library, and Koei has
done more than just localize it for its US incarnation — in addition to translating the text and voice into English, the developer has added a new multiplayer mode.
Do you think Nintendo should offer its old Wii and

Did Sony Play It a Bit Too Safe?
Smash bros is pretty much the same as the last game, mario kart looks ok, dk looks like more of the same from wii, Hell the Dk games on snes had more effort and felt more like whole games and less like cop outs for money,
do nt get me wrong DK for wii was good but was nothing even close to the old ones,
do nt care about wind waker its an old game that i played on my
gamecube a few times.
Hopefully Wii U will outsell
gamecube and loads of people who didn't own a
gamecube will enjoy playing the wind waker for the first time
The problem with Super Mario Sunshine and Luigi's Mansion is that they both utilize the analog triggers of the
GameCube controller, and these simply don't exist on the Wii U.
It would help alleviate the perceived game drought the Wii U is experiencing, while giving gamers who didn't own a
GameCube a chance to play these titles.
When you run games in 1080p, they're either not too far removed visually from their predecessors (Smash Bros. on Wii U doesn't look THAT much better than Brawl) and cut a lot of corners, or they're remakes of
GameCube games (Wind Waker) running at 30 fps.
These are just a handful of titles we'd love to see re-done or breathed new life into in the form of a sequel for fans of the series on the Wii U.
Do you have a
GameCube title you want to see that we missed?
I don't want to play the SNES F - Zero game or even the
GameCube one, make a current gen F - Zero game for Wii U!
Did you have any of these in your
Gamecube town?
Due to the museum being absent in the original Doubutsu no Mori, Blathers
does not appear until its enhanced
GameCube port, Animal Crossing, is released.
Nintendo
did the same thing not advertising the N64 and
Gamecube (in Europe) and didn't seem to care, much like what they are
doing now.
The one thing I didn't like about the gameplay in the
Gamecube version of the game is the controls, which are not all that impressive.
There are more practical speed - runs
done for other Animal Crossing titles, like completing the first debt or obtaining all of the golden tools, but the 100 % completion seems exclusive to the
GameCube version.
A Twitch user by the name of P4ntz
did just that over the summer earlier this year with his world record breaking recording of Animal Crossing for
GameCube completed to 100 % in 50 hours, 53 minutes, and 48 seconds.
I remember that before they made metroid prime on the
GameCube retro
did a teaser for a game called Raven blade.
Is it just me or
did the
Gamecube (GCN) have some of the best nintendo games ever to be made?
Yeah, i am sure whatever they
do it will be awesome, hoping for F - Zero to come back, after playing a lot of F - Zero GX for
Gamecube, i think it is one of the best racing games i have ever played, the skill required to play the game is crazy, make one wrong turn and you
done.
Wind Waker HD on my tv looked absolutely out of this world compared to the
gamecube version, it was good for fans and the generation who never played it, my tv boasts very high contrast though lol good ol plasma technology, I think some HD re releases enhance the game, some don't in my experience, WWHD definitely enhanced the experience, really hope Capcom one day port Okami HD over to the Wii U, y ’ know.....
And finally, the fantasy announcements that I don't at all expect would be the announcement of games like Endless Ocean 3 for the Wii U and a new Chibi Robo and / or port of the Chibi Robo America never got, and translated
Gamecube games that never made it West coming to the VC.
He's so cute: 3 That picture
does remind me of the
gamecube version apart from the fact that it's a different train But hey!
Thanks I didn't realize, my last
Gamecube game was Twilight Princess, I'm sure that waa Christmas 2006, had a great time on that game
Yeah, it's like he's 10 years old and never owned an original NES, Gameboy, Genesis, SNES, N64,
GameCube, PS, or other consoles that had real games... Or maybe he just likes tapping on F2P apps because he doesn't like regular games or he's not good at them.
The Nintendo Wii could only support up to 480p through component cables, and the system's lacking horsepower meant that the games didn't look all that better than their
GameCube counterparts.
Or, like me, the old system doesn't work anymore (my Wii doesn't read disks anymore, and I don't have a
Gamecube, so no more Wind Waker or Sunshine for me) I'll be able to play my Wii games on Wii U, but unless I get a
Gamecube, I can't play those games.
