/vr/ - Retro Games

It's a non-retro console that appealed to children in its generation. Most of VR is 30+

>>7462218
It's only Soncels and Microshitters who hate the Gamecube. Everyone else loves it.

there's always gonna be someone here that hates anything. do yourself and everyone else a favour and stop caring and definitely stop making threads about it.

It is just a Metroid Prime and Pikmin machine

>>7462218
Because it's literally zoomie's first console. And they all grew up to be trannies and faggots.

>>7462218
GameCube is fine. Make better threads faggot

>>7462218
Question: is there a component cable I can use if I have the gamecube without the digital av-out?

>>7462218
shit controller

>inferior to Xbox and PS2 for multiplats
>forgettable generation of Mario and Zelda titles besides Melee
>looks transgender
There is no reason to discuss this thing on a retro gaming board.

>>7462218
Because it's just a Melee machine. Every single legacy franchise on it is worse than the N64 installments, REmake and RE4 have gotten ported, bad controller, bad multiplats, looks stupid, targeted at children. Just a shit console all around.

>>7462285
Yeah, get a Wii.

>>7462320
>bad controller
You're thinking of the N64 or Wii, not Gamecube.

>>7462218
Well OP, think back on how the landscape was during the early 2000s, from 2001-2005. The PS2 was hot. It had a DVD player. It had the normie sports titles and shooters. It had all the 3rd party support. It was coming off the success of PS1 and the general dominance of the market. PS2 was ubiquitous. So, all you really heard kids talk about in every school in the US back then past kindergarten was about the PS2. It was the "cool" console, not unlike the Genesis back during the '90s, but with actual acclaim to back it up.

Then... You have GameCube.

At this point, Nintendo had built up this family friendly image that kids grew up with, and they wanted to grow out of this. Mario, Pokémon, Zelda, all these things were immediately turned to cringe after the turn of the millenium. And Nintendo's bone-headed decisions didn't help. Zelda? Gets a realistic tech demo only to then do a 180° and use a kiddy cel-shaded look. Mario? Suddenly has a goofy-ass water gun strapped to his back cleaning up literal shit. Pokémon? Fell off hard after Gen 2 where it got its lunch eaten by Yu-Gi-Oh. This is a small sampling of how disastrous Nintendo was becoming.

With all this going on, what kid would be caught dead on Team Nintendo during those years? Simple. Losers, nerds, freaks. "That kid". If you were only a hardcore Nintendo fan in grade school, you were very unpopular and bullied a lot. Things gradually got even worse as ghetto nigger culture reached an all-time pitch fever by the mid aughts thanks to rap music and the release of San Andreas in '04. By 4th grade, even white kids wanted to drag their pants across the ground smoking weed, pretend-shooting glocks while saying "nigga" after every sentence. Bing bing wahoo didn't stand a chance.

And now, several decades later, these same children are now grown up ineffectual millenial manchildren, reminiscing about the GameCube and fabricating this totally made-up scenario where it was a good era for them. It wasn't.

>>7462449
What?

Whites dressing ghetto was more a 1999 thing.

The only thing I remember about 2004 was a short lived scene fad.

why can't you accept that the PS2 is the best console of all time? this has nothing to do with taking sides or defending brands, you have to be a massive nigger idiot to think otherwise. nintendo shills should be rounded and killed.

wasn't this the only console for re0?

top 5 game controllers

Well I personally don't like the GC because Dolphin fanboys lied, saying PCSX2 was inferior - when in actuality, not only is PCSX2 a good emulator, I'd say I flatout prefer it to Dolphin in a lot of scenarios.

Emulating both PS2 and GC, you'll see the lack of games for the system, and even if you do try to emulate third party, they're usually worse.

>There are features exclusive to PS2 and Xbox that are missing from the GameCube version. The player is restricted to having one voice for the main character - as opposed to the six found in other versions. Eight of the 28 available music tracks are missing. The Gamecube's hardware lacks the light blur effect that permeates on the characters and arenas. Furthermore, certain 3 or 4 player arenas have reduced crowds due to the minidisc space limitations.

Another thing that hurts the Gamecube is just how bad the controller was - not hardware wise, it was one of the best designed controllers in that regard, but the lack of buttons really hurt it. In Godzilla on Gamecube, you have to use 2 buttons to do a grab. On the PS2 Godzilla, you can just use L1 to grab. Such a small change but it makes a big difference.

>>7462845
>No gaems, but better gaems than the nogaems64

WRONG

>>7462218
because most of them are faggots looking back on the system either through rose-tinted glasses or not in the mindset of when it was current. there were plenty of reasons to own all 4 of the major 6th gen consoles at the time and fucking bickering about which one was superior when they all had drastically different libraries is maximum autism

>>7462870
And if you wanna do

>M-m-muh 4 player!!1

The PS2 has that in spades with games like Champions of Norrath and Gauntlet Seven Sorrows, and with PCSX2, the multitap thing is a meme - but how about six players in the Smackdown games?

The long support on PS2 has Smackdown games up until 2011, with varying features. You can have either arcadey (Just Bring It, Shut your Mouth) or simulation (SVR series). The Gamecube has 4 WWE games and they all have something mediocre about them, like how Day of Reckoning 2 is still only 4 wrestlers on screen.

What was interesting in my circle was that, yes, edgelordery ran rampant, but everyone ALSO had a Gamecube for shit like Smash and Metroid.

>>7462218
You have to remember the average /vr/anon is 30+ and it circumstances of the console during the era it was being sold in.
At the time the PS2 had a stronghold on the casual market due to having the most acclaimed or controversial games during 6th gen era and being a cheap dvd player helped as well.
The hardcore gamer market was dominated by the Xbox due to it having the FPS juggernaut called halo,a really good port of morrowind and the successful fable franchise and the Xbox was basically a mini gaming PC that point was adored by the hardcore market due to faster loading times, can connect to the internet for LAN play and graphical rich games.
Whereas the Gamecube had no proper market at time, early marketing for the cube was shitty they were trying to emulate the edgy marketing of playstation and xbox brand but failed and these ads hurted family friendly image of Nintendo for a bit(also the ads failed mentioned the GC was more powerful than the PS2). Later adverts tried to fix the problem by making more family orientated but it was too late.
Another point was 3rd parties ported most of the Gamecube efforts to the PS2 and PS2 versions were much more better e.g having more content.
This made the Gamecube market only Nintendo fans due ninty exclusives and sheltered kids due to their parents won't buy em a PS2 or Xbox because it had violent games

I'm pretty sure almost no one considers Bomberman 64 to be the worst in the franchise (this is coming from a Bomberman fan who hasn't played 64). I'm pretty sure that Act Zero is considered the worst, or one of those Bomberman Land games (but not the DS ones, those were good).

It's not about hate, it's about recognizing that this console is a piece of shit. This is just a fact. Pointing out a fact is not a hateful activity.
Poop stinks and there's nothing you can do to change that, and I don't hate poop just because I said "it stinks".
Because we live in a world of clowns, nowadays any criticism or unpleasant truth is labeled as "hate".

If the Gaycube is as universally loved as you claim it is, then that would be reflected in sales figures for its generation.
Are all zoomers this fucking retarded?

>>7464446
20M isn't decent for a games console, as apposed to a DVD Player disguised as a console? Just look at the software sales of the GameCube, NGC owners actually bought software.

You also need to be aware that Nintendo made money on both hardware as well as the most popular games that they own the IPs of. Compare that to the PS2, which was a third party machine.

The GameCube was successful when you look at Sales, revenue and actual profit margin, instead of just blindly looking at sales numbers.

>>7464493
>GameCube was successful when you look at Sales
Stop embarrassing yourself, dude.
without the Handhelds revenue, your favorite childhood brand would have withdrawn from hardware production (similar to Sega).

The original No Games Machine. You had Smash Bros and that was about all worth owning.

>>7464446
>A game console has to outsell the competition to be universally loved
Not true. People can love a console that underperformed years after it was discontinued. Hence why people are buying up Carby's or GCHD to play Gamecube in HD. Others are buying up Wii's that are backwards compatible to Gamecube, so they can play Gamecube games they missed out on, as well as playing good Wii game exclusives.

>>7462792
I totally bypassed the Ps2 and the gamecube. Borrowed both of them from friends to see if they were worth buying, ended up using the Ps2 more for its DVD player than games. Forgettable consoles

Same reason a lot of fools here hate on the Sega Saturn, the Nintendo 64, and the Gamecube. All great consoles with plenty of great games.

People will hate on anything, here especially. Even the Atari 2600, the Sega Master System, the PC Engine, fuck, I've seen people hate on the Super Nintendo here. You see it all after a certain point. (not long)

>>7464710
You didn't read the reply properly. All of that profit made on those software sales go to Nintendo because the majority of the best selling IPs they own own. The PS2 was a third party machine, how the fuck ate you not getting this?

Sales only mean something when you factor in revenue and actual profit

Nintendo also went on to sell more of those GameCube games on the Wii. They're still selling Mario Kart by the bucket load in the switch... It came out seven years ago..

>>7462218

Very true

>>7462218
Because it sucked. Huge fucking disappointment.
As a kid born in 1990, I enjoyed SNES and thought N64 was fantastic, so I expected gamecube to be even better, but instead it was far worse.
Dumb controller, very childish intro/logo every time you turned it on, and a very unimpressive library.
I remember arguing with my older brother and his friends who warned me that GC was going to suck and that PS2 was better - I didn't want to believe it but they were very quickly proven right.

Woke cucks like you are always triggered by sexy women in video games. Which is why you cry whenever you see Lara Croft with big tits, yet praise The Last Of Us 2 for having a tranny as the main character. And for your information, I can get real chicks. I've had sex with over 30 women since high school, been in and out of relationships, but they're all sexy unlike the woke ugly women(or men claiming to be women) you date.

You need to be 18 to post here.

i liked the gamecube, i was a fan, but it was a flop, the lowest point in nintendos history at that time, and gets overrated by people on here who had it as their first console. super mario sunshine was especially seen as a huge disappointment at the time, probabaly the worst ever mainline mario entry at that point. really average for a mario game. gamecube also had the worst versions of multiplats with no online play and it didn't even have gta. had a pretty weak library. but people on here talk like it was an incredible system, so I think that's where the backlash comes from. it was just average all round, even the first party games were average compared to n64

>>7468371
I'm pretty sure I'm older than you, kid.

>>7468459
It wasn't a flop. Nintendo made a profit on hardware and software. It was commercialy successful.

>>7468364
But why are you projecting?

>>7468576
it was a flop dude nobody cares if nintendo technically made a profit on the hardware. the sales were abysmal. it was not a success. it was a laughing stock in eyes of the public and completely dead by 2005. nobody was playing on that thing by 2005 besides 6 year olds and hardcore nintendo fans (which i was one of at the time). it was a total low point for nintendo, coming from the popular n64 they slipped into irrelevancy that gen, lagging behind even the xbox. that's why they shifted their approach with the wii. you could sell 5 units and make a profit on the hardware but nobody would consider it a "commercial success" lol. was the wii u a success too?

>>7462218
I don't. The Gamecube is a fine system overall with a good enough library.
My only complaints are the controller sucks and this is where Nintendo's first party games started slowly becoming really shitty, especially Zelda and Starfox

>>7468710
There's no projection here. You woke cucks get triggered by the slightest hint of sexiness in any video game character the likes of Chun Li, Lara Croft, Sonya Blade, Mileena, Kitana, etc. It's sad and pathetic really to get triggered over the original vision of what the artist had in mind for that character.

Bc it only sold decently in North America, so it makes all the PALfags on here angry.

you sure you're not thinking of the PC-FX?

The only real appeal that the Gamecube had was that it had really quirky games like Killer7, Pikmin, and Wario World. Its library just doesn't really hold up to the Xbox and especially the PS2, which had even more quirky/unusual games just due to the sheer amount of games released for it.

Technically? They either did or they didn't.

Nintendo made a. Profit on both hardware and software, The top 11 best selling Gamecube games are all Nintendo IPs, every one of their IPs in the top 30 sold over 1 million copies, that's money going straight to Nintendo.

because just like every nintendo console its shit compared to other options and is only popular because they locked games to it

Thanks for the read. I think this is a reasonable take. I was never a Nintendo kid, so I ended up with a GC just so I could play edgy games like RE4, MGS.

>>7472414
>its shit compared to other options and is only popular because they locked games to it
Its shit because I cant play Nintendo games on my PlayStation. That's what all this is really sbout isn't it.

>>7472417
It's fairly on point. He just left out how people felt about the Xbox generally but I don't think it's as relevant - it was also a cool alternative but mostly played for its really big games with a few people having smaller hits like ninja gaiden. Nintendo by the end of the generation was full on "identity crisis" mode.

>>7472445
zoomers will never understand or believe it, but nintendo was more or less irrelevant from the launch of the ps2 to the wii. the ps1 was still going strong and very cheap, and a lot of parents bought a PSOne for their kids since it was tiny and could be put in their bedrooms easily. everyone had a ps2 in the living room, and microsoft had replaced sega as the alternative console that heavily focused on american favored titled like sports and shooters and had a more mature college kid type aura around it, along with a bunch of weird or niche games.
Nintendo just didn't have any market at all outside of really sheltered kids whose parents wouldn't let them have anything but mario games they remembered from when they were younger, and the gamecube was treated by a joke by the media.
It's a really strange contrast that happened kind of overnight too because the N64 was easily the Nintendo console most accepted and loved overall, especially by older demos. even if you didn't have one yourself you'd always have a friend who did and you'd get people together to play the wrestling games or goldeneye, the N64 was actually super popular in dorms because of that even years after, until XBL took off.

Nintendo tried to go for the same demographics as Sony and Microsoft but didn't have the games to appeal to that market. Like you said, the GCN was a punching bag. Seeing TTYD be praised so highly these days is just funny to me, I remember when it was called incredibly mediocre and used as an example of how out-of-touch Nintendo was.

Prove what exactly? You haven't offered anything remotely credible.

the gamecube is a rare console that's literally entirely redundant these days. the only functionality-related reasons you would buy one are if you're extremely autistic over the component AV out being allegedly a bit better than the Wii, or if you just HAD to use the original GC gameboy player. Wiis are cheap, plentiful, and way more useful. I would say the GC is even more unnecessary than a dreamcast these days

>>7474121
Hot take warning!
Wii's all good n stuff, but it just lack the aesthetic of GC.
GC is unabashedly childish and quirky. It feels like a plushie in your bed, not sterile glossy appliance for bored wine moms.

I swear to god my best friend was like this, we played through San Andreas and he started acting like a "gangster", listening to 2Pac and he said "I wish I was born as a nigger" and shit like that, even though he was blessed with Terence Hill like blue eyes.

Well he became a drug addicted loser so I guess he got what he deserved.

Oh and yeah, he really did start talking shit about my GC games for being childish and shit, what a faggot really.

>>7474121
>>7474451
The PAL GC has RGB out, you also have the SDGecko which allows you to run all the homebrew that the Wii does.

GBA Emulation sucks on the Wii, and theres a homebrew GBA player disc that allows you to get more out of the GBA player. The GameCube isn't completely worthless these days.

>>7474451
It's a games console, not a fashion accessory. Get a grip. There are coloured Wii consoles anyway, if you can't bear using a console that doesn't look like a child's toy.

Here's a window to the past when Gamecube was around

>>7475195

All its games are bad just like every other console in its generation and all generations afterwards.
Early 2000s was the absolute death of gaming, the late 90s was the beginning of the death of gaming, and we live in an era where kids who grew up in that era were brainwashed into thinking those games were actually good when they were not.
Make /vr/ 8/16bit only. There are no games worth the title "retro" afterwards.

i thought it was ok, played the ps2 more tho. don't know why it makes people froth from the mouth

>>7475260
>don't know why it makes people froth from the mouth
Because of their demand for Ikaruga, only for Gamecube.

>>7475213
Would you care to elaborate or are just going to keep spitting out autistic bullshit without explanation.

All the series we had come to love were experimented on during the gamecube era. Sunshine is ok but its not the mario game the system needed, you spend most of Windwaker on the water thats not like zelda, honestly the only reason its as fondly remembered as it is, is melee faggots.

>>7462256
Pffffft no thats the wii actually. Gamecube was made redundant because of that.

N64 controller rocked though

>>7462954

>>7476993
The Gamecube controller is perfect. The N64 one was shit because it required 3 hands.

>>7477630

nice meme

It had a pretty pathetic library but it gave us a few goat's like REmake, Prime & Windwaker. It's biggest crime was Sunshine, that game is an absolute slap to face. It doesn't deserve to be hated, but zoomies over-praise the thing which rustles the feathers of boomers like me.

>>7472393

The only games worth playing on that list are WW,REmake & Prime 1&2. All 3 of them are on other systems/.

>>7462218
To be honest, because of contrarianism of 4chan combined with their hatred of melee, which is only half contrarianism.
Nintendium durable, good games such as Mario Sunshine, Twilight Princess, and even got good ports and stuff. Gamecube was good, affordable, and I know that what I am saying sounds like a commercial, but dang I have plenty of good memories playing on it.

>>7474980
Why are you replying to me? I made the list from someone's opinion, go bother them.
>>7477882
They're all available on other systems, that was the whole the reason behind the list. Its almost as if you didn't bother to read the post I replied to.

>>7471816
so was the wii u also a commercial success?

>>7471694
>imagine trying to play gta or halo
You could play those on the Xbox. Even if the GC had those games back then, most people would have gone with other consoles anyway. The GC had its own library of games which worked well with its controller, and which were enjoyed by those who owned it. The Zoids vs games for instance would have been nearly unplayable on the PS2's controller, but that's not a mark against the PS2. They're just different machines with different controllers, capabilities, and games, and they all appeal to different people. If you don't like a console, that's fine: don't play it, and don't waste time shitting on it. Varietas delectat. Vive la différence.

>>7479779
I said the controller was bad you failed abortion.

>>7462218
Here is your answer

The controller was extremely comfortable in your hand but the button layout was stupid, the lack of an L1 or left z button was a gross oversight, and the c stick nub is stupid. Its not a good controller. The form factor is very comfortable but it has so many other flaws that it sucks.

the people who autistically bash the GC have never actually played any of its games. Its library may not be as extensive as the ps2 library but it sure has some quality games, and while some of them are not even that popular, like Baten Kaitos, it's a fantastic game nonetheless.
The GC brought us the best Paper Mario game of the franchise, Pikmin, Metroid Prime which was a great adaptation to 3D, REmake, 007 Nightfire which I played countless hours of with my siblings, Mario Sunshine which had tight as fuck controls, Super Smash Bros Melee, Mario Kart Double Dash, Zelda Wind Waker, Super Mario Strikers, Billy Hatcher (a weird game but still I had a fuckton of hours clocked in it).
I'm sure I forgot to mention more good games but those are some of the ones I still own or have played in the past.

>>7481240
I want to know what makes thousand year door better than paper mario 64. Everything I've heard about it makes it sound like just more of the same but with even worse writing.

>>7481240
All those games you listed are mediocre and frequently inferior to the ones that came before them.

>>7481240
>The GC brought us
>007 Nightfire
No it didn't, it's a multiplat that had a simultaneous release on GCN, PS2 & Xbox.
>i-it's the best version though!
The GameCube didn't have the best version of any FPS regardless of how well it ran, simply because you were forced to use that atrocious controller. And if you're counting multiplats only for the system that runs them best, then the GameCube's library becomes even more pitiful than it already is, since Xbox versions of multiplats are better in the vast majority of cases.

>>7481446
Pikmin, Metroid Prime and the Mario Strikers series started on the Gamecube. You don't know anything about the system's library.

>>7482972
Most accurate post here.

Also, trannycube is not retro.

>>7462218
Oh I don't hate it at all. It didn't have a ton of games, but what it did have was pretty great

>>7481368
I take it you have never played TTYD.
You get an entirely new party of companions with entirely new abilities, new items while keeping most of the old ones, much more versatility in playstyle because you get tons of new badges, lots of new puzzles and game mechanics, the game is much longer than paper mario 64, the baby yoshi chapter is great, the pit of 100 trials, the detective chapter is really comfy, paper ability upgrades for Mario and so much other more stuff.
TTYD is a straight upgrade from the previous game no doubt. I love them both but there's no doubt in my mind that the second game is much better.

>>7481446
Like that other anon said, some of these games appeared for the first time in the GC or were entirely new adaptations like Metroid Prime.
And even if they were sequels, if you can't find something that you like in that list, including Luigi's Mansion, Twilight Princess, Eternal Darkness, Chibi-robo, Viewtiful Joe, then the problem is you, not the games.

>>7483848
Yeah I've heard that, but I also heard the story is tumblr fanfiction tier. Super paper mario was a pretty good game too despite not being an rpg but its story drags it down pretty hard.

>>7482065
I totally forgot 007 Nightfire was multiplat but that's not the point, it's further proof that the console had its own unique great games and even had some decent multiplats.
the controller was never an issue for me, and while it may look weird you get used to it pretty quick, even if you play an fps.

>>7483873
super paper mario was boring as fuck, and I still have a copy of it lying around because I went into it with high expectations coming from TTYD.
If you liked super paper mario you'd probably love TTYD. I don't know what you mean by "tumblr fanfic" but it sounds like you're just biased against it for no reason, because the story is fun with tons of unique characters.

>>7462218
it spawned some of the most insufferable fanbases out there. fuck them

Dude. This is one of the best controllers.
wtf it’s still used for smash and a lot of speedruns.

>>7462218
I don't hate it.

I just don't like the controller design and it only accepting small ass discs.

It also didn't seem to be marketed to people my age when it came out.

It seems they only had young children in mind where as N64 was more universal.

>>7485226
Metroid Prime.

>>7484798
Shit take, man. N64 had a lot more kiddie shit and cheap ports, while GameCube had mature rated games and much better quality multiplats. If anything, GameCube was Nintendo's first attempt to market directly to older teens and 20 somethings.

>>7486215
Its amazing that its taken Nintendo so long to realise that 3rd party developers will stab them in the back at every opportunity. They learned a harsh lesson from EA and Ubishaft with regards to the Wii U.

Maybe that wouldn't have happened if Nintendo wasn't the one backstabbing 3rd parties on the NES

>>7486208
Is still Metroid.

>>7486215
There was Mortal Kombat and I'm pretty sure Turok waa Mature too.

N64 also had the advantage over PS 1 at the time you could use 4 controllers without buying a shitty adapter.

>>7462932
No, not really. It has significant amount of input lag, some games are unplayable in hardware modes (True Crime comes to mind, plays perfectly in Dolphin btw) and SHADOWS IN RIDGE RACER ARE STILL FUCKING BROKEN! I'm sorry dude, but Dolphin is objectively better. I'm saying this as a dude who can't find a worthwhile game to play in GC yet completed tons of games on PS2.
