I'd agree the GameCube had a better library through its first year.
Smash Bros. Melee, Metroid Prime, Super Mario Sunshine, Luigi's Mansion, Pikmin, Star Wars: Rogue Squadron II, Star Fox Adventures, Animal Crossing, Resident Evil REmake, Resident Evil 0, Eternal Darkness, NBA Street, 007: Agent Under Fire, Timesplitters 2, SSX Tricky, Prince of Persia, Beach Spikers, Super Monkey Ball, Phantasy Star Online, Mario Party IV, Tony Hawk 3.
vs.
Nintendo Land, NSMBU, Zombi U, Game & Wario, CoD Ghosts, CoD BLOPS2, Assassins Creed III/IV, LEGO City, Pikmin 3, Mario 3D World, Wonderful 101, DKC: Tropical Freeze, Monster Hunter 3G, Batman Arkham Origins, Rayman Legends, Zelda: WW HD, Mario & Sonic Olympics, Sonic Lost World, Scribblenauts U, Splinter Cell: BL.
The bummer for the GCN was that Mario Sunshine was a bit of a letdown for some people.
