It's a really effectively told story, especially compared to some of the more recent games. I'd actually argue it's one of the best storys in the Tales franchise the way they subtly show the effects of racism in its varying forms, as opposed to battering you over the head with dialogue about it, means that by the time you meet the overall 'villain' you completely understand his motives. Was pleasantly surprised by the Zelda collectors and Master Quest ranking so high though.Īlso, regarding Tales of Symphona "although the plot might be a little workaday if you're at all familiar with the genre, there's a lot to love here".
There are a lot of games lower down that I was initially annoyed by them being so low, but when you consider just how many truly quality games the GC had it's inevitable that some will get pushed lower than seems fair (though it always pains me how disregarded Sunshine is, and the lack of Pokémon Colosseum is a real oddity imo). However, unlike other static lists, this one constantly evolve to reflect ratings from Nintendo Life users, so you can still participate. The ranking is formed entirely from each game's user rating in the Nintendo Life Games database. We asked Nintendo Life readers to rate their favourite GameCube games, and the result is the list of 50 games you see below. This was the last time Nintendo put itself in direct competition with Sony and Microsoft in pure spec terms before changing tack with the Wii. Its striking indigo colour, big chunky 'A' button, cute little discs and infamous carry handle ultimately worked against it in an era of sleek, all-in-one multimedia machines, but it was a powerful little box of tricks that played host to a fabulous library of games. The NGC (sorry, GCN) is a beautiful, compact piece of kit.Įschewing the jack-of-all-trades direction of its contemporaries, the console concentrated on doing just one thing well: playing games. Unlucky Europeans wouldn't get their hands on it until the following year, but the wait was worth it for one of the best-looking video game consoles of all time.
The Nintendo GameCube launched in Japan in September 2001 and a couple of months later on 18th November in North America.
