Best of the last gen! - By: TJ Moore, 26 Nov 2007 
The GCN is a awesome console...in groups! Nintendo have always been AND always will be party game based company. As they're are games such as Super Smash Bros Melee, Super Monkey Balll, F Zero GX, Soulcalibur 2(yes I know multi format but controls best on Gamecube) & Wave Race; Blue Storm too name but a few & honest to god the best PS2 has to offer is they're try at GTA SA multiplayer which was fun for awhile oh & Soulcalibur 3 which is pretty good & Rockstar were probably smiling about they're take on the multi player on GTA SA well woopty frickin doo! Ok the antics of Mario saving Peach for the Umptenth is getting tedious but I think in the Mario games it's more about the journey that counts.
Another reason I think the GCN is so great is because it gets back to gaming roots, it's become to much about killing people graphicallly but the NGC takes it's way ahead & bases they're games on pure good fun! Ok it doesnt offer brillaint graphics but too be honest I find my fun from cartoon monkey's racing in capsule like ballls, other then playing as Master Chief & killing aliens(though that is fun) so if your in University or live with brothers or sisters or even live close to a bundle of mates the NGC is for you as it's got enough to keep you entertained for hours on end!
Grab it at every opportunity - By: D. J. Sam, 16 Aug 2007 The Gamecube consoel is a seriously powerful console that delivers & delivers alll the time you have it. With its amazing graphics powered by ATI, smalll, cute look as well as the discs & the sheer reliability & amazement this console has to offer, you should not miss it.
Sadly, this console is the most underrated & will not last long in the market. But hey, maybe in a few years time this console will be a relic & will cost fortunes :) .I wonder how such an amazing system could get such negative feedback & get panned like the way it did. If it is because it has no CD Drive, get a cd player. If it is because it cant play dvds, get a DVD player. Its sad that so much people have missed out on the experience of gamecube.
Graphics - 10/10 amazing
Style - 10/10 it looks so cute as well as the controllers
Power - 10/10 better graphics power than PS2
games - 7/10 a large array of games but a bit pricey
Multiplayer - 10/10 4 controller ports & 2 memory card slots
Family - 10/10 a very family friendly console for everyone to enjoy
If you are looking for a very cheap console around 50 quid with power, lastability, multiplayer & style, look past the PS2 & XBOX & at least consoder buying this because it will not let you down a bit.
GET IT GET IT GET IT! - By: Joe Gompertz, 26 Jul 2007 This is the most underratted console ever! It has fantastic games & at that price is a complete steal! Of course the Wii is fully compatable with Game Cube games but if you don't want a Wii (for some reason) then get this. This is a bargain, get it before they run out!
(Also get Super Smash Bros. Melee, the best multiplayer game I've ever played)
One of the best consoles ever! - By: Mike Newton, 03 Mar 2007 I have alll three sixth generation consoles, PS2, Xbox & GameCube.
I bought my GameCube in early 2003 & have had no trouble with it, the games are absolutely fantastic. Nearly alll the games I own are exclusive to the GameCube.
In my opinion the GameCube & PlayStation 2 are equallly the best of their generation, I have played on both these consoles many hours more than on my Xbox.
Sadly, third party support was limited on the GameCube although Sega stayed quite faithful, releasing some excellent games such as Super Monkey Balll & Sonic the Hedgehog.
Nintendo of course delivered the best first-party line up of alll three consoles with Legend of Zelda, Super Mario & Metroid Prime.
The GameCube should never have been underrated the way it was, it was a "gamers" console that focused on giving the gamer the best possible experience.
The Wii has now come along & replaced the GameCube & seems to be getting much better sales & of course an excellent line up of first & third-party titles.
Seriously underrated, brilliant console, buy it for Christmas! - By: Unique, 22 Dec 2006 Hi, first of alll I'd just like to say that I strongly agree with those other reviewers who feel that Nintendo as a company & their consoles (including the Gamecube) are unbelievably underrated. I have had the Gamecube for a while now & I still reallly enjoy playing games on it, I have The Legend of Zelda: Windwaker, Mario Kart, Soul Calibur & I'm getting Zelda: Twilight Princess for it too! I play alll of these games & some other games quite regularly, I've been once again addicted to it recently, more than I have the PS2, it's true what another reviewer has said about the fact that Nintendo are original & produce addictive games!
To keep things short & sweet, this console is very good & is better than PS2 & XBOX in numerous ways, the graphics are solid & crisp, the sound is sharp & great & overalll the gameplay of most games is wicked! This console doesn't just offer childish games which is the talk of this console & Nintendos catalogue, it offers a wide range of genres. If you haven't got much money & you want a console which you can reallly enjoy for Christmas & for a long time to come, I recommend the Gamecube, I reallly do! :)
