Why I love GameCube

The reason I love the Nintendo GameCube is because it launched with three series that are still going strong today, and it was a landmark console for the time. The launch series I’m talking about is The Legend Of Zelda, which continued on console from previous consoles, Metroid Prime and Pikmin.

The Legend Of Zelda was released on the GameCube in the form of The Wind Waker. The game saw the setting of every Zelda game suddenly change from vast open fields to a world mostly occupied by the ocean, with a few patches of land forming the locations for players to explore, though there was more to the ocean than met. it was visible to the naked eye. .

This game was so popular that it was ported to the Nintendo Wii U, a console two generations before the GameCube, but thanks to its originality and popularity it has been remade for future audiences.

Metroid Prime was the first game in the Metroid series to be brought to life in three dimensions. Classically, the games had been side-scrolling puzzle and shooter games, but now the series set out to create a new genre, the third-person puzzle shooter. Players were required to progress through a planet with different environments, acquire new powers when they could, and defeat bosses on a larger scale than ever before on consoles.

Since the release of this game there has been another one for the GameCube that brought even more to the table in terms of scale and action. The series progressed to the next generation of consoles, and even made the next console transition a generation after that, showing just how amazing the original GameCube game was.

Pikmin was a game like no other. Players were required to use their different colored Pikmin to collect parts for their ship and escape from a planet they had landed on. Another game was released due to its popularity, and a third installment is in production for current generation consoles two generations from now.

Another reason I loved the Nintendo GameCube was that it had the best graphics in a market where Xbox was ahead of it in terms of multiplayer and PlayStation in terms of popularity and recognition. So many revolutions happened on the GameCube, and anyone who has had one will remember how great it was to play on it. Nintendo has been able to replicate this originality on the Wii and Wii U, although not in the same way that it was achieved with the GameCube, since it was a console ahead of its time and very little appreciated by many, but at least I and some other people they loved it while it was in effect.
