gaming Gamecube anybody?

I have one. It should be collecting dust in the corner of my room right now. Any gamecube game I want to play, I play on the Wii so...

 

As for memories, the fondest memories I have are of play Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles with my friend and cousin. We would play that game endlessly and I would constantly be carrying the chalice around and taking care of all the curing and raising. Seriously, no one else would pick up cure or life, it was just the unspoken understanding that I was the whitemage of the group and I didn't really have a say in the matter. Oh, and we would keep our bonuses secret from each other and compete to get the highest scores so that we could get the first picks of the stats at the end of a level. I was a clavat (first playthrough was as the long haired; the rest were as the hat wearing version), my friend was a yuke and my cousin a selkie. Good times.

 

I also had a  ton of fun playing Tales of Symphonia with my cousin and friend. We played through most of the game together: I played as Presea and Sheena, my friend played as Genis and Zelos and... I actually can't really remember who my cousin played as: I think he played Presea and Zelos or maybe Lloyd. Anyway, it was a lot of fun and I wish we could have done the same for the later Tales of games (how I wish I could get them to play through Tales of Graces F with me), but they just don't seem to have that much interest in these types of games anymore.

My gamecube was the second console I ever owned (I'm so yoouunnngggg)!
I owned Kirby Air Ride, Super Smash Bros. Melee, Mario Party 8, Digimon Rumble Area 2, Shrek 2, Mario Kart: Double Dash, Donkey Kong: Jungle Beats, Pokemon: XD Gale of Darkness, Pokemon Colosseum, and other games that can't come to my mind right now. Some may sound lame to you, but those games were the my childhood!

Oh my, the GameCube. Literally the best days of my childhood gamer life. ^^

 

Twas when I first played Sonic Heroes, my very first Sonic game (I'm a huge fan!).

 

Along with Sonic Adventure DX and Sonic Adventure 2: Battle (and Sonic Gems collection...and Shadow the Hedgehog ^^")

 

 

I enjoyed Super Smash Bros. Melee, until Brawl came out, haven't touched it since.

 

I always loved getting a friends to being over a gameshark and be all OP'd in every game and just goofing around.

 

 

Good times...good times... ^^

Still have mine with the GB player attached to it :D

I have the Pokemon XD Gale of Darkness version with the Shadow Lugia as the faceplate. Kinda wish I had an original GC.

Ahh yes, the GCN. I remember getting it as a Christmas gift in December of 2002. That indigo box came bundled with 2 games: Super Mario Sunshine & Super Smash Bros. Melee.

 

The Gamecube just brings back so many good memories I had playing games with my siblings. I was 9 years old when I got the system so maybe that's why I remember it more clearly than when I got my N64 at age 5.

 

My favorite game for the system was hands down Tales of Symphonia. A multiplayer action RPG where up to 4 people could join in the fray and work cooperatively to beat the game was unheard of at the time. I just had a blast playing the game with my brothers and sister.

 

I sadly gave away my gamecube when I got the Nintendo Wii in January 2007. While the gamecube only had an impact in my life for 4 years, I will never forget the endless hours of laughter and entertainment that it provided me  B)

It's built into the Wii for me. I don't own it itself. I had to get rid of it though. :( I made the data transfer from the Wii to the Wii U and there's no way to plug it in

 

I'd only use it for GameCube anyway but I can't even do that. D:

 

Had some fun games though! Wind Waker, StarFox Assault, Mario Kart Double Dash, Super Mario Sunshine. 100% completed them all at least. :3

I was never able to play Crystal Chronicles with other people but it remains one of my favorite FF games of all time. I love the setting and the atmosphere.

 

I always choose Selkies. They are the only race that looks any kind of good as far as playable characters go imo.

 

I'd always choose this one too cuz it's the only one out of the Selkies with any fashion sense except maybe the Shark Eyes.

To this day I wish I could have played it multiplayer at least once but I'm okay with it as a single player game too. Dat final boss. Still one of my favorite final bosses. So much atmosphere.
