I am a core gamer so that makes the Wii the worst.

That doesn't necessarily follow. I'm a core gamer too, but I'll take the Wii over the Gamecube any day.

...dude...I could go on and on about this.

It was the core Nintendo console. It didnt have as many hits as the N64....but in library quality it was more powerful than the Wii ever was in the quality that was there in all. The gamecube was a victim of a childish image that has always plagued Nintendo and Nintendos disc choice which carried less on it than the PS2 and Xbox warding third parties mostly away. You might have liked the Wii more, but compared to the Gamecube its library was disaster. Gamecube used no gimmicks and might  have been held back by its childish lunchbox design but it profited. Nintendos consoles are always affordable to make, but bthe Wii U was the least affordable.

Mario Galaxy 1 & 2

Xenoblade Chronicles

Metroid Prime 3

Zelda Skyward Sword

Donkey Kong Country Returns

Monster Hunter Tri

Sin & Punishment 2

Dude, I could go on and on as well. The Wii's library handily beats the GCN's. As a core gamer, I sunk easily twice as much gaming time into my Wii as my GCN, simply because there were more quality games.

Those were great games but I was talking about the library. The majority of the Wii's library was terrible and the gamecubes librarand the y like the N64 was small compared to their respective playstations but they stood proud. When I was younger the N64 was the flawless core Nintendo console and even that wasnt as successful but it sold a little bit more than the Gamecube. The biggest breath of fresh air to the Wii lineup was xenoblade chronicles but again I already played Xenosaga on the Playstation so when they were actually selling well. No doubt the Wii had a handful of good games though.

I maintain that in terms of the number of high quality games, the Wii offered more than the GCN for me. I grew up with SNES myself, which was amazing, then moved onto the N64, which was a step down, but still excellent. The GCN really rubbed me the wrong way, as Nintendo's first party efforts on it were mostly subpar, but the Wii was a return to form for me, raising Nintendo's first party offerings back to the level seen on SNES and N64.
