Gamecube is very overrated by Nintendo fans of a certain age. I don't think that it matches up to the Wii in any way. The games that people tell me are better on Gamecube than Wii to be honest I just don't get. Double Dash being better than MKWii seems to be common thought among Nintendo fans and I seriously don't get it at all - it's super-hard for me to tolerate Double Dash after playing Wii, such is my perceived quality difference between the two. And as a casual Smasher, I find Melee feeling quite redundant when compared to Brawl (in the same way that Brawl now feels redundant because of 4).
I think the big thing Gamecube really did have going for it was the Metroid Prime series. But hang on, Wii got Metroid Prime Trilogy - including both Gamecube games with superior controls!
