Nintendo Gamecube Startup menu ~ 11 years of the purple (or black) lunch box 

i know me too i love the gamecube

the sound in 0:06 will stay for ever in my memories

Me to. I still have my gamecube.

@@pagaanimations Me also. I'll miss you GC

Same here

Ikr!!! I had a strange glitch I think... Well, actually two... When my blue/purple gamecube couldn't read the disc, it came up to this menu... And once the gamecube wouldn't play ANY game apart from a wrestling game! xD I'm a girl, so that wasn't much fun... LOL!!!

+Tierney Jackson (Miss Boo) pfft, my GameCube stopped reading discs

I guess it happens to some of them over time

+Tierney Jackson (Miss Boo) It has a little device that controlls the energy of the laser. I don't know much about how machines works, but I know that if you messed up that thing, the laser would either be too slow or too fast, and it would stop reading discs completely. Well, my device broke...

Oh that makes sense :)

The Wii U background music gives me Gamecube vibes.

it's a little bit more light hearted sounding than the gamecubes more atmospheric and eerie sound

drjoshfox CHRIST you have a furraffinity? Jesus...

drjoshfox PS2 was better.

The wii u menu is very cool, is like a fusion of the wii and gamecube menus

Bat Artay me too

OML SAME ITS SOO BOOTIFUL

Same here, I wish that they would use that noise for the future of the Nintendo Switch.

Me too

It's scary.

ikr it scared me so much when i was little

***** I'll never know why...

IRNatman probably because the background is so dark and used to make you feel lonely

+IRNatman LOL I was scared from the menu too XD

Same dude. Same

I really, really like the whole menu.

*doot* Thank Mr skeltal it doesn't have anything on the menu

Yeah same

Me either

Me too

SO MYSTERIOUS LOL

Same :/

Bro dead ass, I though it was going to turn into a transformer and hurt me

@@O_GDUX_O LOOL

Isn’t that a Pokémon cry??

IceyPie because evolution

meh, the switch looks modern and it I still like it.

TheQuickSlash you like a menu with no music?

Kostas123GR2 no, it’s just that it looks good, I want music however

TheQuickSlash oh, same

the music is just the famicom startup slowed down

+SeaBiscuit The Game Cube have the exact same problem that the Nintendo 64 had. The only games that are really good are from Nintendo, or at least most of them. At least the N64 had Rare. That said, the controller, while different from any other, is my favorite controller to this date. All the buttons are nice to press and are very well placed. The two analogs had an shape so when you wanted to go straight, left, right, or on diagonal directions, the stick would stuck on that direction. It's also very round (contrary to the console itself) and nice to hold. The only bad thing I can say about the controller was the D-pad. It's very stiff, but thankfully, most games uses it only for menu or shortcuts, never for movement.

I wish the developers actually developed a new controller for every console, instead of using the old SNES pattern. I know it's a good pattern, but if no one try something different, we will never see another "Game Cube controller".

+Hambs23 It's pretty much been a problem for all Nintendo consoles since the 64. Although there are exceptions

Super Mario sunshine had the best graphics back them

Take advice from a person who owns a gamecube, it's an awesome console. There is a great library of games to choose from and a gba player for it. I'm not sure how you'd feel about the prices though

How come can you look at your save files when you don’t got any games?

@@SawyerIque You got bored of the few games you had, plus game rentals used to be a thing.

Same I still do it.

Or lack thereof...

@@_ArsNova permanent rentals via modding

Ikr I would be like that or when I didn't have it I would be like "What if one of my toys that talks turns on?"

The awesomeolly I'm thinking of buying or at least saving until I can think of buying a personal GameCube for a few of the titles, and that's actually a really irrational worry of mine. Maybe it's just looking at how the secret intro sound set for holding Z on a controller freaks me out a little, I don't know why I'm like that at 13 years old though.

I literally can't get that thought out of my head wtf and btw I had my PC turn on in the middle of the night I was sleeping then I randomly woke up in the middle of the night to my PC at the desktop I instantly turned it off

I used to think my Xbox 360 or OLD Windows ME computer would turn on by itself.....The monitor made a strange sound when it would turn on and the floppy drive sound used to make be unsettled too

Are you emotionally disturbed? It's a fucking Game Cube

Dat bee gud idea

hmmm i wonder

Zaire Lewis how? Its only sound

Speed up the music 16 times, it is the famicom startup

The sounds are so satisfying.

I couldn't agree more 👍💯 I still got my gamecube and all its games and not once does the start up ever lose its awesome nostalgic effect

lol I thought I was the only one

The background music, is the Famicom Disk System Start up slowed way down.

It was strange for me xd

Origanal xbox is creepier. Trust me!

I still play on the gamecube now

I feel the same.

The music is actually the original Famicom startup sound, just slowed down by, like, a lot

Same man

waa

The Gamecube was my very first video game console, so I know exactly what you mean by the soothing, comforting nostalgia that is the main menu of the little black lunchbox. (My GC was Jet Black)

This is hilarious because I look back when I was your age 😂😂 I think I played theost on GC when I was 11

@@anthonywestover5326 well good for you unlike me my first console was the wii I despise of that boring white slab with its butter shaped controllers and long load times and it’s tv channels menu and it’s motion controls and it’s uninspiring games and the controllers eat through batteries like pac-man and take so long to connect that I could have at least a 2 laps of a double dash track done by the time after the game loads and the controllers are connected it has GameCube support but you have to select the load screen, the wii can go fuck itself ,I envy people like you wishing my first console was the GameCube , at least my dad had ps2 so it wasn’t all that bad then I got a new console a few years later it’s chunky it’s clunky it’s the Wii U oh shit, Scott the woz Outro music starts playing

@@jj-lw5xx yes the wii did suck

@@softcoregits4162 Esperas que te entiendan aquí?

@@softcoregits4162 Ya se pero estás en un lugar donde todos hablan inglés Y no sé cómo

@@softcoregits4162 Ya sé Y no c como

yeah

Adam Rodgers it's the way of most things generation after generation in the late 20th century and onwards. Older things were built to last and had authenticity about them. Now it's more about making money and stuff that breaks so you have to buy more.

Adam Rodgers true it had the more mature games

Maybe cuz they want their consoles to be for any age not just for older people

so that explains why my silver gamecube is broken. i guess it is a new model.

Imagine hearing this thing at 3am

It makes me feel un even

@@-sgsdfhdhhdt oof

Yes it did!!

Me too 😳 im scared 😟

Killer 7 and eternal darkness wants to have a word with those who says Nintendo is kiddy

@@apple5893 and also geist and odama

Those people just didn’t like Nintendo and preferred the ps2 I personally would have preferred having the ps2 as well since unlike the GameCube the ps2 could play dvds and was not just a gaming system it also doubled as a cheap low end DVD player which made it very popular at the time since DVD players weren’t as common at the time which made them pretty out of reach of most average consumers at the time

PS2 players missed great GC exclusives, like SSBM and Luigi's Mansion

The GameCube having the "best-titles" is a matter of opinion. The stigma of it being a "kiddie-console" has a lot to do with aesthetics of the console itself and the controller. I mean seriously, a handle? C'mon. The GameCube Controller design worked great for Nintendo 1st-party games, but for 3rd-paries the button-layout feel awkward to put it mildly. Also terrible-decisions (which ultimately led to it's marketplace failure of only selling 21 million units worldwide) of not including a built-in broadband module or an online-service, the 1.5GB mini-DVD discs forcing developers to have to cut out features to save room, lacking the ability to play media at all. However, one thing the GameCube did have going for it which was not "kiddie" in the least was it's power. The IBM PowerPC "Gekko" processor was a beast. The "Flipper" GPU designed by ATI was also powerful. It wasn't on-par with the XBOX in terms of sheer horse-power but, it's efficient-design allowed for some developers to make games with visuals on-par with the XBOX or even better. *Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader* has visuals that stand up to this very day. Both the GameCube and N64 could have been so much more if not for Nintendo's greedy-practices. Had the N64 of been disc-based and if the GameCube used regular-sized DVDs and included broadband-internet capability, the PlayStation brand would have just been a footnote in history. Right along side things like Phillips CD-i or Panasonic 3DO. Today, people would have been like....... _"Oh yeah. the Sony PlayStation. I remember that."_

Why is this the only actual console(not add-on) with a startup?

Damian Castaneda or all the xboxes

I think he meant nintendo

Also the Wii U is slow as fuck. Worst console I ever bought.

***** it doesn't perform well enough to be called a current gen console, but it's got some good games on it

😢😢😭😭

@卐P3ηgυ卐 says the Nazi. Why are you calling this guy kid?

How can you hate the start up?

Same. But I play GameCube from my wii backcom

U can buy GameCube games for ur Wii to play backwards compatibility. But u need to get a GameCube controller and memory card to get fully started.

@@crimsonnotion yes I know that, I in fact own 2 physical GCN games. Those being Mario Kart Double Dash and Super Mario Sunshine. I also have the memory card and 4 GCN controllers.

@@LudwigTheCountryguy cool. But be careful buying another GC game bc they cost real high nowadays.

@@crimsonnotion Yeah Ik, GCN games are so expensive nowadays. Especially for people living in the PAL region, which is where I live

Same

Evil gamecube is coming to haunt us all!! RUNNN

XD

Good to know that i'm not alone

ZaScarf I'm feel glad knowing that I was freaked out by that as a kid. I got so scared that I had to turn off the tv XD

Sonic heroes and fighters

I see Sonic DX, Sonic Adventure 2 Battle and Riders too.

Wait how did you get a gamecube?

no you are not

No, at all, I LOVE that transition

No I LOVE it

It’s cool but creepy 😳

chicken boss36 To me it sounds like a Call of Duty zombie screaming.

BallisticPlayz me too man i'm getting the gamecube for my 18th birthday party along with Mario Party 7

SUPER MARIOFAN Make sure you get the gamecube microphone since it is required for Mario Party 6&7.

Its a great console

Scott McAllister One of Nintendo’s Best. What it lacked in size and features it more than made up for in games.

I just checked that FDS jingle and HOLY SHIT you're right-

You know you could have also skipped it by having a game already in it.

Idea: Have a game already in it so you don't have to hear it! :)

Same here I am Vietnam PTSD of this damn thing

Damn auto correct

After this gen when SEGA dropped out of the console race, I guess less risks were taken in console design due to less competition

@@mrpizza_5139 that's why the PS2, the Xbox and the GameCube come in after the Dreamcast's demise in 2001

Yeeep, PS2, The Original Xbox and the Gamecube.

@@madden8021 the Dreamcast

True.

The satisfaction of starting your favorite games...3 of my favorites were Star Wars Rogue Squadron 2, Metroid Prime and Tales of Symphonia

I agree with you Ping Ping!

+wesley pedro (fact)

+wesley pedro (fact)

Ps2 is overrated

+Xbox Nerd True

ok, cool. I like both original Xbox and GameCube.

It's not freaky it's cOOL

If u listen more it's less scarier

I got a Wii when I was like 5, the GameCube was released three ago before I was born.. Wish I had a GameCube though

if the wii had a menu like this it would be better than the cube.

I have 1 gamecube & 2 wii's

i wouldnt compare the gamecube to the wii my friend, more like the gc to ps2 or xbox

i don't have a gamecube so i can't exactly do this, but if i get one then i think: gamecube = wii

Caeden9000tv 9012 the Dreamcast?

PlayStation 2

That’s awesome 👍🏻 and I agree

SHOOK

starfcy logic be like

I was creeped out by that but then realized that it couldve been changed one day forward from 11/17 to 11/18

starfcy cuause he is not in north america look at the clock in the menu

Everything Blocksworld maybe

Where did your GameCube go

You can always buy a new one on ebay

Nintendo is still really famous

Like super duper famous

Xyaena what do you mean "when"? they're still pretty famous. Like "famous for their menus"?

Nintendo is still famous

+Cloud Strife タニタしるチタンレ Where'd you hear that rumor?

*NINTENDO CLASSIC MINI: NINTENDO GAMECUBE* NEEDS TO BE A THING
