Thanks to Epic Games for sponsoring this video
On this episode of Retail Reviews, Mike and Ryan discuss Nintendo's GameCube and a few of its stand out games. The Nintendo GameCube is a home video game console released by Nintendo in Japan and North America in 2001 and in PAL territories in 2002. The GameCube is Nintendo's entry in the sixth generation of video game consoles and is the successor to their previous console, the Nintendo 64. The GameCube competed with Sony's PlayStation 2 and Microsoft's Xbox. The GameCube is the first Nintendo console to use optical discs as its primary storage medium. The discs are in a miniDVD-based format but the system was not designed to play full-sized DVDs or audio CDs unlike its competitors, and mainly focused on gaming instead. The console supports limited online gaming as well.

It's because of how priorities have changed over the years with consoles. Back then, it was a huge boon if a console could play DVDs because DVD players weren't literally everywhere, and since the GameCube couldn't do that, it got dunked on in spite of the great games in its library.

What I like the most about the GameCube is the design. It was trashed at the time by a lot of people for looking like a toy, but that was exactly the point, while other video games looked like...shoe boxes. It stands out to this day and no one did something like it ever since. Also the games, some truly timeless masterpieces. Also I admire Mike's sense of masochism towards games.

I'm currently playing a GameCube game. It's Metroid Prime. I'm almost to the end. The SNES, N64, GameCube, Genesis, PS2, and Dreamcast are my favorites of the older consoles. Also, I bought Sonic Adventure DX recently for the GameCube on eBay about a week ago and it came Friday. I'm excited of playing it after I beat Metroid Prime. Edit: I'm almost to the end of Sonic Adventure DX now. I just finished all the characters' stories (Including the ending story Super Sonic story.) All I need to do now is get ranks A and B in all the character's levels.
