Recommend at least 10 games a Cube owner should have

Read title. I think the following should be owned:

Zelda Wind Waker
Mario Kart Double Dash!!
Metroid Prime
Star Wars Rogue Leader
Super Smash Bros Melee
Animal Crossing
Sonic Heroes
Probably Final Fantasy CC
Pokemon Colosseum - when it comes out or import it
Resident Evil

There's obviously loads more that you should own but I'm only stating 10. You can state more if you want.

I'd add the following to the list (since I couldn't pick just 10 games)

Ikaruga
Monkey Ball
Viewtiful Joe
PN03

Viewtiful Joe is okay but the first boss is WELL hard! Ikaruga, never played. Monkey Ball I would strongly agree. Never played PN03 though...

If you don't have Ikaruga for the DC it's well worth picking up the Cube version.

P.N. 03 is quite good and very stylish but hardly a classic. Maybe that says more about the strength of the Cube's lineup.

Pikmin
F-Zero
Pokemon Colloseum (when it comes out)

I was pretty disappointed with FF:CC I loaded it up and have played for about an hour, not really that impressed, need another GBA lead to play multi

Well, FF:CC won't go on my wants list then. Before I get Pokemon Colosseum, I'm going to get Ruby/Sapphire. I've never played Pikmin but it looks so cool. I wanna get F Zero GX cos I've played the GBA and N64 versions and they are way cool! Pikmin 2 looks to be game of the year!

Oh yes. That's a magazine staff's most wanted. I could NOT get past the 1st boss on Viewtiful Joe. Plus I personally thought it was a bit poofy after I found out that his life gauge are flower petals and Viewtiful means Beautiful View. Plus with the way he prances around. I got it for £20 second hand in an unknown game shop. F Zero GX looks amazing! Has anyone actually used F Zero AX in an arcade to get the extras?

haven't played on AX yet, but have unlocked the AX ships and tracks on the cube version.

This game is by far the best racer on the cube

POOFY? the games supposed to be funny, it is toung in-cheek, anyway if you manage to get passed the first boss you get more powers like ZOOM, MACH3 & VIEWTIFUL STANCE, trust me you will love it after that!

Whats wrong with flowers? Ever played Super Mario?

I suppose your list would work but we need more classics man! Pikmin rocks! Just got it today. It's turning really hard now though. I'm borrowing Metroid Prime off a mate (beautiful game!) and I plan on buying some games in the future. In Viewtiful Joe you get Zoom before the boss and I got Mach 2. I just don't think there should be a side-scrolling level game on the Gamecube. Gamecube games should be fully explorable 3D worlds. I also agree with Starfox Adventures, absolutley amazing game! I just could NEVER get past the Test Of Fear which is why I got rid of it. I even tried taping paper of the part of the screen where the dinosaurs show up so I could only see the bar but it was sooooooo hard! I got onto the General Scales part and that's the last bit!
