It’s multiplayer is, by far, the best on Nintendo 64. The Single Player is epic and addicting.

Metroid Prime without a doubt has become my favorite game on the GameCube, and thus far my favorite game out of this generation of gaming. My favorite game ever is "Ocarina of Time" and Metroid Prime has come mighty close to being as outstanding as that masterpiece.

Without a doubt, an experience like no other.

I question if it goes too far to say this is the best single-player experience I've ever had on my GCN. No boring moments like "Metroid Prime," no extreme tedium like "Wind Waker." It's like a roller coaster that never goes up, only down.

I felt like a kid playing this game, right alongside Link. I laughed at times; I felt sad at times, I was in shock and amazement. To say this is simply a game is an understatement; it is an adventure. [Import]

It's nice to see Nintendo giving away such high quality freebies like this. I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say, "We want more!"

"Four Swords" is the perfect multiplayer Zelda game. It combines amazing cooperative gameplay with competitive gameplay at the same time. The end result is a multiplayer game like no other.

Majora's Mask is, withouht a doubt, a magnum opus of epic proportions. It may not be as great as "Ocarina of Time," but it gets as close as it possibly can. One of Nintendo's greatest.

There is one big factor of the game that I don't like, it's too easy! It took me an hour and a half for me to beat the game and 4 to beat every task, BUT it has excellent replay value.

This game still is one of the best, if not the best, 2D platformers ever made.

I would highly recommend a rental, and around December, if history repeats itself, you should be able to find it for a fairly discounted rate and two months of season still ahead of you. That way, everybody wins.

The amount of impeccable polish applied to Soul Calibur II is nothing short of astonishing. It rivals every fighting game in the history of gaming, and has raised the bar for every game yet to come.

The visuals in Mario Kart: Super Circuit are mind numbingly perfect.

It's caused everyone I've shown it to end up with a huge goofy smile on their face after only a few minutes play, has made them say "Wow! Did you see THAT!" on a number of occasions, made me genuinely laugh out loud more than once (try pressing Pause!) and has impressed me time and again with the level of ingenuity and style that Team Viewtiful have infused into the title. [Import]

I'm already in love with this mountain, and all I want to do is get back up to the peaks and board down that fresh powder.

The replay value is great and this game will last forever.

It’s franchise mode is deeper than ever, and gameplay more solid than ever. Once again, EA and Tiburon have topped themselves in all categories.

With even more improvements made over the near-perfect SNES game, Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2 deserves the highest honors.

Almost perfect. Some of the challenges are a bit difficult but they help build your skill level. And although the graphics aren't stunning they are above adequate for this game, and are still very good.

The controls, sound, graphics, gameplay… they are all fantastic. Miyamoto has another genius of a game. Super Mario Sunshine beats out Mario 64 by a mile.

An incredible game.

It is one of Nintendo 64’s most fun and hilarious games of all time. Not only does the game have one of Nintendo 64’s best Single Player experience it also is home to one of the most addicting, and again hilarious Multiplayer games ever created.

I want to go on about how perfect everything else in this game is, but you need to experience this for yourself. The title is an amped version of the original Metroid Prime, making an epic experience even better.

Probably one of the coolest stories ever to grace a platform/adventure game. And not only that, but the story actually is consistent with the games in the past.

It is as solid as past installments, only not as amazing and shocking.

A sign that Nintendo is listening to the fans! The only major downside is that the graphics show their age. [Import]

An instant classic on the GBA and it lives up to the original game.

Neversoft succeeded by sacrificing some of the polish that could have made the game a better by a smidgen. The framerate and lack of astonishing detail are valid complaints, but should not deter any Gamecube owner from buying this game.

Not enough can be said for how much fun this game is, how the action keeps coming at you, and how the soul system truly adds a layer of customization and replayability that wasn't in previous Castlevania games.

With a gripping story, slick battle sequence, superior graphics, and a set of good tunes to boot, Golden Sun is a total package.

The best GBA game so far, and it'll keep you busy for a long time.

But what about all those who can't get online? Sadly you're out of luck, because the single player is fairly repetitive and the cheap computer players don't help it.

Whether in battle or just the game world itself this is my favourite game of the year on any system.

Dual Strike has a lot to offer, and it looks and sounds better than ever. The game has the same traditional look as before but from a more isotopic perspective, which gives a nice 3D sppearance.

The game plays perfectly, just like the original. However, that is the problem. The game has nothing new, nothing different, nothing innovative, and nothing that changes the gameplay from original except the targeting computer, which you are penalized for using!!

The only aspect of this game that can be considered negative is the repetition - once all five pikmin types are unlocked there is very little in the way of variation - but the game is easily enough fun to obscure this fact.

The only real knock against it is its length. Coming in at four hours just does not cut it. There are multiple endings the higher the completion percentage, and the original Metroid for comparisons sake, but the brevity of the adventure hurts an otherwise great title.

The only real problem I had with the game is one you have to push "A" 71 consecutive times to pull that many Pikmin out of the ground, and with only 30 days this gets time consuming.

The multiplayer will ensure you and your friends will have as much fun with Underground as you did with previous games, and the single-player is a different experience even though the story is sub-par.

I absolutely worship the Green Plant: Intersection level. For that level alone this game is worth it.

With a wonderful mix of Four Swords style gameplay and a Wind Waker feel, the game takes a little something from everything and still manages to improve on it.

The option is a huge part of college football, and Tiburon has done an extraordinary job of replicating it in NCAA Football.

It seems Konami could have made better use of the touch screen feature on the DS, and also taken a few more liberties with innovative game play.

The best arcade racing experience available on the GameCube. If your a fan of the first than this is a must buy.

From my perspective, I prefer the original on the sole basis of storyline, because it provides for a greater variety of enemy CO's and aids in creating a close bond with your own CO's. Either way, it's still a great game and is co-owner of the crown when it comes to "Best Game Boy Advance game."

Trying to describe why this game is fun, why the challenge of playing these games, which alone are stupid and even moronic, but together mesh so well and are fun, is not easy.

The gaming community is rarely treated to a gaming spectacle that excels so elegantly as Splinter Cell.

The sound in DKR is fantastic. The characters make noises, the cars make noises, and the music fits in perfectly.

It features nice graphics, wonderful sound, addictive gameplay, and a lot of replay value.

I love Meteos. I didn't think a puzzle game would ever burn itself into my retinas to the degree Tetris did, but I was wrong. I find myself waking up and dreaming of rockets blasting off or lining up three different colored tiles on floors while I walk. It's a disease, but it's one that I'm glad I paid for the privilege to catch.

This game is the shiznit. It’s the best game on the Game Boy Advance.

Moving and controlling Wario is very simple, and very fun.

Tops the original in terms of intuitive gameplay, graphics and sound... but the basic formula hasn't changed a bit. Which is good, it probably doesn't need to be changed.

Aggressive Inline literally has become my favorite extreme sports game to date.

It is a game with flaws but it is an infinitely better game that "FFTA" is and yet still miles away from achieving the perfection that is "Advance Wars 2." That being said, I love this game, and I honestly cannot wait to see further installments.

I found the replay value to be a little too shallow for my liking. I need a game that pulls me into its world and keeps me there.

A very, very good game and definitely worth a purchase. It's just a disappointment compared to the sheer greatness that was "Circle of the Moon."

Just a little too similar to "Tactics Ogre." The fights got a little too mundane and boring. Perhaps it's because I spent so much time with Ogre that I grew bored of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance quicker. That's not to say that Final Fantasy Tactics Advance isn't worth every penny, because it is.

I couldnít help to think this was what "Star Fox" should have been. In a genre which is getting drabber and more predictable by the day, Beyond Good & Evil has done what "Ratchet and Clank" did with the platforming genre and revitalized it.

Plainly put, this is one of the best games available on the Gamecube to date. Though not quite as challenging as Superstar Saga (or most RPG's in general), Paper Mario 2 manages to remain wholly engaging from beginning to end.

The brand new 'Bob-omb Blast' is likely to be the best multiplayer kart game you will ever play.

Amazingly addicting, completing charming.

Once again, the combination of Sega and monkeys has resulted in an extremely addicting game. Don’t pass this game up.

What really shines, even on top of the great graphics and sound and gameplay, is the replay value.

For those of you waiting for the first real and complete usage of the DS system's capabilities (read: Yoshi's Touch n' Go), look no further than Kirby Canvas Curse.

Simply put, The Lost Age is the best role-playing game available for Game Boy Advance. However, I highly recommend playing the second best RPG, the original Golden Sun, before you play this continuation of it.

The games flows nicely, control is accurate enough so that you're never left cursing your on-screen players, and the overall look and feel is very strong.

A mixture of numerous ideas and seemingly unrelated modes that melds to form an exquisite game. Zelda is ever changing, and this iteration sees the dream of true connectivity come to fruition for Nintendo while bringing a fresh face to the series. [Import]

This game, while not perfect, will even attract and hold non-RPG fans with its unique battle system, and interesting story. The game is a great, interesting, and fun experience.

The game can get rather frustrating because of the control scheme, but once you have them mastered it can be quite fun.

This is easily one of the finest and most refined GBA games to date (maybe one of the last, too). It contains a narrative that takes the audience seriously (yet provides good comic relief) and a superb cast of characters.

THE must-own launch title. There are a couple of issues keeping it from being a definitive killer-app for the system, such as the problematic control scheme, but it’s as close as any of us could have hoped for, and certainly close enough to warrant a purchase.

It's simple, it's easy to learn, and it's fun. I declare the GameCube's first online game to be a success... However, I cannot stress enough that it isn't worth your time and money if you're not going to play online.

Underneath the less than stellar presentation, is a game that pulls off is a complex, tactical, and worthwhile adventure.

Treasure/Atari/Infogrames/whoever have failed to add anything significant to the game or remedy it's main deficiency: replayability and variety -- the prototype mode notwithstanding. [Import]

It's amazing to think that a guy like me, the type who used to hate NASCAR with a corrupt passion, has actually found love in a game like this.

With all that’s fantastic about the game I can’t overlook that it needed more polish, and for that reason I wouldn’t say it’s a must-have for those that played the original or still have a copy.

I believe that this is the best life simulator (if you don't consider "Animal Crossing" a life simulator) for the Gamecube.

This game can have loads of excitement. One of the main reasons is that the controls are excellent and it is easy to pull off major combos without a lot of effort. However, the game is still going to be hard to master.

A fantastic golfing title that competes with the big boys. It features five full courses and a host of mini-games that'll keep people busy for those long road-trips. My only complaint would be that it is far too easy.

Every RPG fans' dream of a game. It has some of the best gameplay, an engaging story, great music (although the quality detracts from this), and hours of gameplay to keep you playing into the long nights.

Nevermind the graphics. Forget the sound. The reason that so many people worship the Hawk series is because it is a fun game.

Apart from virtually every aspect of gaming that Ultimate Destruction pulls off beautifully, the pure raw fun to be had with this title alone makes it worth a purchase. There's madcap enjoyment to be had here the kind of which you'd find in "Super Smash Bros. Melee."

One heck of a game that rises above its genre as something everyone can play.

It will take you a while to beat this game. And even when you've beaten it, you still haven't beaten it until you go back and rescue all the little Electoon dudes. So, replayability is good.

From the particularly joyful vehicle chases, to your conniving ways of infiltrating, I am most gracious to you for giving me your secrets.

Street mode play feels like the same thing over and over again, and the franchise mode also lacks spice. It’s hard to play this game and have unique experiences.

This is not a game you need in your library - this is a game everyone *must* have.

The game shrinks down the arcade game successfully, even if it's not as good as that game was. It has some flaws, including some major ones in doubles play, but the rest of the game is too good to overlook.

There is just enough of a story for Resident Evil fans to play the game and find out new information, but there certainly could have been much more in terms of the story.

An awesome and unique racing game with truly blazzing speed.

The quirkiness of the game, along with its innovative premise, promises a pleasant time to be had by all the family.

The concept for the game is wholly imaginative, and I can't think of any game out there with a similar type of control to it.

I’m not sure why it wasn’t a little harder to beat in the end though. There are many goodies to unlock and keep you busy for a while, but it all depends on how much you like puzzle games.

This is a clear example of a shoddy port to a terrific game. No one would stand up to these misgivings on any other title, but for some reason you can forgive Hitman 2. At moments things just get so bad, and the distractions become too much.

Everything is nearly identical to what you played in Sands of Time, and in the case of combat, the bar has been raised. With a much more even balance of fighting and foot work, PoP fans should be pleased.

You can't help but fall in love with the little critters. Nintendogs is entertaining, innovative, and packs quite a bit of staying power thanks to all the great unlockables in the game. Believe me, when you get it, you'll fall in love with this incredible, complex game and the little furry pal that goes with it. [JPN Import]

A fast paced platforming action game. With the ability to play five playable characters and having different paths in each level, the ideal amount of replay value is added to the game.
