Can't say I enjoyed the Star Wars games. Rare was more like 2nd party, but I hated their games either way. Acclaim's games were awful, Turok, Shadowman... all crap. Never played Space Station Silicon Valley, but maybe I can check it out. However, the AKI wrestling games on the N64 were fantastic. I forgot about them.

If you're going to limit it to exclusive content you ignore a ton of great games on the Gamecube. Its almost like you're handicapping the Gamecube to make the N64 seem better in comparison.

God almighty Jesus - I think it fair to say we should put down the point re: N64 game quality, because our perspectives on this are wildly, wildly divergent.

Legally there's no such thing as second party - Nintendo was publishing third party games and owned a (non-controlling) stake in the company, but Rare was still a third party.

And not at all. I think the Gamecube's library was considerably better than the N64's, excusing the glaring lack of RARE. What I'm saying is that third party support for the N64 had a much bigger focus on software made exclusively for the hardware.
