Similar to my N64 playthrough, I will also be looking at every GameCube game, tied in with the follow-on from N64 Magazine, NCG Magazine.
The GameCube was the first console I got on launch day, with my mum driving to the store after work. The black one I wanted was out of stock, so I settled for what I thought was blue (only to later find out was purple). With it I got Star Wars: Rogue Leader and Extreme-G 3.
While I played many games I loved, there were loads of games I read about in NGC Magazine that I wish I could have tried, which is why I want to go through every GameCube game. My rules are lax with finishing every game, just like with N64 games. I’ll be aiming to complete singleplayer games (using cheats if I’m getting fed up – this is purely for fun), and trying to get a feel for things like sports games.
As there aren’t many significant leaked prototypes for the GameCube, I will include a few bonus non-GameCube titles that have some connection to the N64 or GameCube. I’ll explain those when I get to them.
I will be also marking any modifications I make to the game, such as texture packs. There are three kinds of widescreen modifications.
- Widescreen Hack: The emulator renders outside the usual view.
- Widescreen Code: An Action Replay or Gekko code adds widescreen support to a game.
- Widescreen Patch: The actual game file is modified to support widescreen.
