It was one of my favorite consoles growing up, but I had never really gone back and replayed many of the games. I modded my Wii and have spent the last month or so replaying a lot of Gamecube games and so far.. it's been pretty disappointing honestly

>Star Fox Assault - terrible
>Luigi's Mansion - terrible
>Super Monkey Ball - decent, but the camera sucks and it's just an arcade game through and through which means very limited content and just replaying the same stages for hours until you learn them (I'm too old for this shit honestly)
>Super Monkey Ball 2 - disappointment, level design is much worse, filled with annoying, unfun, bullshit gimmicks
>Rogue Leader - disappointment from Rogue Squadron, spectacle over fun gameplay
>Metroid Prime - extremely mediocre and unfun, Super Metroid was overrated but still blows this piece of shit away
>Wind Waker - disappointing dungeon design and way too easy

The only games I've played so far that actually have held up well and are still fun to play today are Pikmin 1 and 2

I still fuck with the cube here and there , it's got a lot of comfy games but ps2 is more consistently satisfying for grown ups. It's all about what I'm in the mood for. I like how easy it is to launch is from an sd card, so it's my go to for multiplats

Everyone grows out of tendies eventually.

Agreed, PS2 just has so many games, and a lot of good ones that aged really well.

Gamecube definitely has some good exclusives, but most did seem to age badly gameplay wise. I think at the time they were all fun just because it was such a big leap in graphics/game size and content over the previous gen console games.
>>
>>12066338
Sort of agree but it's nowhere near as bad as the N64. Feel like everything between the SNES and the Wii U was kinda meh.
>>
>>12066381
N64 is the opposite. You remember it as having a very limited library but the games it did have were straight bangers.
>>
You convinced me, I will now stop liking all these games
>>
>>12066406
yeah they are kinda junk. I wouldn't have believed it either had I not just played them.

Just played through Sin & Punishment, Banjo Kazooie, and Star Fox 64 this past year and had a blast with all of them. Maybe N64 wasn't so bad after all.
>>
>>12066401
Yep, N64 is actually like a goldmine of hidden gems too. A lot of the games held up really well. Starfox 64 and Perfect Dark both still feel better than shit that comes out today to me.

Then stuff like Pokemon Snap, Pokemon Stadium, I feel like they don't even make shit like that anymore.

>OP says his games haven't held up
>proceeds to list the slop

Bitch nigger what are you doing?

Where's the RE? Where's the Mario?
>>
I had a similar experience with the SNES.
>Super Mario World - ugly as shit, doesn't have interesting levels, not challenging enough
>Yoshi's Island - literal baby game
>Link to the Past - starts off decent but feels like the whole thing is copypasted past the first dungeon
>Super Metroid - terrible controls, too easy, way overrated
>Mario Kart - ugly as sin, terrible sliding controls
>Star Fox - unplayable framerates
>Kirby - literal baby games
>Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, Earthbound etc - these 2D games that feel like they were made in RPG Maker are too hard to go back to
>Mega Man X - decent but the slowdowns really hurt the experience
At least Donkey Kong Country holds up alright.
>>
>>12066426
dear god you have shit taste
>>
>>12066426
OP here, similar actually. But ALTTP and DKC were both excellent, Super Metroid and SCIV were great, and Mega Man X and Mario RPG were decent.

i have a home brewed wii and basically any game i want on the entire gamecube. got it like 3 4 years ago now. the games i find myself playing are the mario sports titles on hard. theyre just a shit load of fun. having all the old re games in one place is cool. albeit there was is other ways to do the same on ps2 soo. i like the metroid prime games a lot personally but feel like i have to be in a certain mood to play them. but i enjoy it alot. i like star fox adventures for some reason. i play def jam fight for ny way to much that game is amazing lmao

I just played it for the first time. I kind of want to play the sequels but I also don't want to get burned out.
>>
>>12066401
Mario Tennis is way better on 64 than Cube.
>>
>>12066426
You're wrong about Yoshi's Island, but right about the SNES library.

>>12066414
this sort of shit is only ever said by nostalgia blind retards. anyone with at least 2 braincells to rub together to make a thought recognizes the n64 for how primitive it is.
