The Nintendo Gamecube - Review - Game Sack
Ойындар
Episode 49 - The Gamecube as a system was a really overlooked and under-regarded by the mass gaming public in its time. Here we take a look at some of the exclusives you may have missed. NOTE: We should have had Super Mario Sunshine in this video, at least in the montage. We had covered it a couple of times before so that's why it's not in here. But still, it should be. So know you know why. :)

Is it just me or do the graphics on these look better than most Wii games?

If you compare RE4 GCN with RE4 Wii, the graphics are very comparable. I'm not trying to suggest the GameCube was more powerful than the Wii, but this was a port, and aside from the new controls and extras from the PS2 port, the graphics are nearly identical. Although the GameCube DID have superior video output than the original Wii models.

MGS: The Twin Snakes was my favorite game of all time on the Game Cube. I've beaten it a million (maybe closer to 100) times. God, I still wish I had that game..
God, this system is amazing. My brother and I grew up on this after my N64 shit the bed. From 2003 on, this system consumed pretty much all my free time (I was a kid, so all I had was free time after school), along with the GBA. The entire 6th Generation was amazing, but this was my favorite of all of them.

“Melee is a true button masher” LOL holy crap, I guess you hadn’t seen just how competitive and unbelievably deep melee is.

Just felt like, if they didn’t know it yet, they should know now.. and for anybody else that didn’t know.

Honestly giving melee props for its mechanical depth in 2012 seems like it might be a controversial move that wouldnt be worthwhile for the channel to make
I have 9 gamecubes. Mainly because of rare full DVD custom top shells and I can repair them really easily. What's also nice about the cube is that without a mod chip or permanent soft mod, you can use SDML and run backups and emulators. You can get widescreen hacks using Swiss to load the game which gives the game more appeal on widescreen tvs. Example would be SMS... Mario wouldn't look so fat (stretched wide) using Swiss. You get more of the screen to see as well that's normally cut off.

Luigi's Mansion also had detailed real-time flashlight shadows and lighting effects which was pretty advanced for that generation of games. Also, Metroid Prime's graphics are easily some of the generation's best. Very very few games came close.
It would be awesome to have another episode. This one is very good, covers a lot of games but the gamecube has plenty of lesser-known good quality titles that you guys may have played. No RPGs were mentioned, despite the gamecube having a few of them(but not even close to the PS2).
gamecube has the best controller of all time imho
Gamecube really does have the best analogue stick for any system. Instead of being rounded, it has groves for all of the 8 main directions. This makes playing 2-D games with the analogue not only doable, but easy as cake! And that's damn good, because the Gamecube also has the worst D-pad of any controller, being made for newborns, obviously
Why thank you! I'm glad you watch the entire show. We figure if people can watch The Godfather for 3 hours straight then they can watch a 20+ minute Game Sack episode! OK, maybe The Godfather wasn't a good example. Waterworld, maybe? :)
Great video as always, I can’t believe I haven’t watched this one and it’s already 6 years old. I guess it might be time for another GameCube video from the Sack.
you guys missed WWE Day Of Reckoning 1&2 made by thq no other system has these games which makes them Nintendo exclusives
My favorite all time system.
I remember buying a used GC off of ebay back in 2005. It came with Resident Evil Zero, the REmake, RE 2, RE 4, strategy guides for all of them, a brand new unopened extra controller, 2 memory cards, and an action replay. Needless to say, I didn't get much done for months :)
Enjoy watching your show guys, it's quite addictive so working my way through them all. Keep up the good work chaps!
I love the Gamecube, I never owned one, but I have a Wii so its even better, I have a ton of gamecube games , but my favuite games for it are F-Zero GX, XGRA, Mario Kart Double Dash, Timesplitters 2+3, Resident Evil series and Soul Caliber 2

OH MAN! I was watching this video in the hopes you would list Chibi Robo, and you did! You don't know how much that means to me. It was an obscure title that had really fun gameplay. I always wanted it when the system first came out and I heard about it, but never did get it, but I was in a game store and found it used for 10 bucks! Picked it up and tossed it in my library for sure! You guys made me whip out my old N64 and Gamecube just to re-live some of these awesome gaming moments. Keep going with this great show guys. I really enjoy watching all these old games and systems, you're making me want to go out and grab a Genesis, GameGear, NeoGeo, and even the good ol NES (THAT LIGHTGUN THO!). I've got some electronic prowess so I'm not afraid to do some refurb work. Thanks for giving me yet another hobby....
The Gamecube stands as the pinnacle of gaming for me. Every time I come back to it I get those warm feelings of Christmas morning and playing Mario Kart Double Dash for the first time with my brother. The Gamecube was home to some amazing titles and the last system I can actually call a fun, gaming machine. The third-party support was still relatively strong and a lot of multi-platform games carried over, giving GC owners the best versions of Soul Calibur 2 and Mortal Kombat Deception in my opinion.
On the melee segment "The fighting is far from deep." "A true button masher." Im just gonna assume you guys don't know about L-canceling Wavedashing and all the technical aspects of melee.

Soul Calibur 2 was best for the NGC. Played it on playstation and xbox as well, but the gamecube controller just worked better (surprising as that may be). Arcade controller would be the best though

Well, there is a bit of an exception in certain cases, usually with some multi-platform games that made it to the GameCube. I've had cases where the the smaller discs did hurt the game, as when being ported the it always was a game of "Did they preserve sound, or visuals?" since the discs just weren't big enough to handle both. Though weirdly enough, the sound taking a hit was usually more noticeable with the horrible compressing done with them with side-by-side comparisons.

It was FAR more powerful than the PS2. Enough to make it almost a generational leap. The only issue (and it was only an issue sometimes) was the GC disks were physically smaller and held less data, so sometimes that resulted in developers using lower quality textures or audio to make it fit. Sometimes they went to multiple disks to solve it.

Stormspark - I don’t believe that the GameCube Nintendo was vastly superior to the SONY PlayStation 2, but it was definitely a step up and games like Luigi’s Mansion, Resident Evil 4, and Star Fox Adventures proves that. Those are examples I pulled from the top of my head, but there are several more.

@@NYCJoeBlack Hardware wise it was a generational leap. The PS2 had a very simple GPU that had to run a separate pass for every texture layer, and couldn't do lighting at all. The Gamecube's GPU could do 8 texture layers and 4 hardware lights in ONE clock cycle. It wasn't just more powerful, it was *vastly* more powerful. The PS2 did have the advantage of better hardware video decoding (though that obviously only affected cutscenes), and more disk space (so some assets could be higher resolution - some Gamecube games that didn't go to 2 disks did suffer from compressed textures as a result).

Stormspark - I am aware of the GCN ability to do 8 texture passing. That was pretty impressive, especially when the Microsoft XBOX could only do 6 texture passing at a time, but to say that the GCN is vastly more powerful than the PS2 might be a bit of a stretch. Listen, out of that generation, the GCN is my favorite system and I own all four systems for they generation; XBOX/GCN/PS2/Dreamcast, but a generational leap? Hmmmm. Not so sure about that one, but if you feel that way, what do you think about the XBOX? That was the more capable hardware in that generation. One of the few things the GCN has over the XBOX was the ability to pass 8 texture passings.
By far the best end tag you guys have ever done.
As someone who remembers loading up the heavy xbox into a duffle bag to play LAN multiplayer at friends' houses, I always appreciated the carrying handle on the gamecube and how light it was 😄 I had an xbox and always wanted a gamecube too if I had the funds but thankfully I knew some guys that had one. Super fun to play in the dorms bc it seemed like the gamecube had fun, easy to learn party games that anyone could pick up and play!!
I shun the GameCube because the games for it have held their value ridiculously well. TOO well, even the games that are only decent or "pretty good" cost a ton. I look at them and think, gosh, I could buy like five Xbox games for the price of Luigi's Mansion.

"More than twice as uch as a sega dreamcast" - I'm not hater or fanboy, I do like gamecube, but that statement is more like "look how shitty sales had the gamecube". I mean Gamecube was supported from 2001 to 2007, while Dreamcast 99-2001. And telling us that it sold twice as much is schowing that gamecube did not sell well at all.

I like the Dreamcast but the Dreamcast had a quick death that's why even if sega continued making dreamcasts they couldn't of gotten enough sales to keep going, the PS2 was dominating the Game market. In 2000-2002 the PS2 was the cheapest dvd player on the market so it didn't really sell because of the games released for it. I owned and still own a GameCube.

lone wolf I don't know about Wii U, this shitty console does not interested me. But from what I checked, it has diffrent guts than the Wii. While if you check every thing in GC and the Wii, you will se exactly the same guts. Also that's the way they make the Wii backwards compatibile. Same guts= it can play games from previous gen.
The digital port is now used! Nintendo's component cable had a DAC in the cable itself. However, today in the days of fanmade 3D printed things, someone has made an HDMI adapter that uses the digital port. It uses the audio from the digital port too.
Luigi's Mansion had such a unique atmosphere no other games could achieve. I love it. I think that's what makes the game.
"My enthusiasm for the Star Wars universe has dropped off" You have no idea past Dave, lol. After Disney got ahold of it I have zero interest.
so where's Sega today, Joe?

It's crazy how much more relaxex Dave became as the series went on! He sounds pretty wooden in some of these earlier episodes.
Joe's Monkey Ball goals made me laugh more and more as they went on and on and became more impossible. Seriously, is that all ball skill or is there some funny well known magnet-to-goal cheat that I don't know...hilarious and awesome either way!
Best. controller. ever.

Hey Joe and Dave, fun F-Zero GX fact: Using an Action Replay it's actually possible to play a more-or-less complete version of the arcade version of F-Zero AX that was hidden in F-Zero GX, right down to the arcade game's logo, menu and attract screens. It means you can also play the AX tracks without having to unlock them by beating all the cups in Master mode (insanely difficult) and all the AX ships by (I think) beating all the story modes on hard mode, which is probably even harder.I don't have an Action Replay for my Gamecube, but I was able to get the codes working on an emulator.
You guys are the reason why there is a youtube. Love your videos....thank you
I like these reviews, but they seem too scripted. I think it would sound more natural if they improvised more.
"The fighting is far from deep." "A true button masher." LOL! You can not be any more wrong.

nintendokings button masher, lack of depth, easy to play? right then I paused to write this and I'm feeling like this will be shallow general facts since that comment about smash shows they don't have that deep of research into this lol if it was another game but come on the console's banner game?

Best Nintendo console.
Really dig the show guys! Friend of mine turned me onto your show, and it's fantastic to see some of these great systems/games getting a bit more deserved time in the spotlight, so to speak =P lol Keep up the schweet schweet work.
Constant angular velocity Thank you Joe that's something that I've always remembered it might have something to do with dave being a smart-ass And it really does help to see times I still play my GameCube

I guess you guys are right, I just never encountered that. I was thinking from how I experienced it though, and here in the Netherlands I never found a double CD box, but then again I don't remember finding the games in the stores here so maybe they weren't released here locally.

Btw one of the best James Bond related games IMO It was amazing for the time
Awesome revision of the GameCube. Watching this was such a nostalgia rush. The GameCube was my first console and watching those games brought me right back to my childhood. The only question I have is how was Windwaker not in either of your top 3? It’s one of the best games of all time.
a game i still kind of play on my system is "Chibi Robo". sure, if you think about it, it's just chores in a game, but your a tiny robot fighting off robot spiders, seeing cool characters and you get awesome abilities and outfits. and i'm looking forward to the 3DS game coming out.
