I am not disagreeing with you but, in terms of RPGs, I thought that the Gamecube was a huge step up. We're talking about games like: Skies of Arcadia, Paper Mario Thousand Year Door, Tales of Symphonia, Baten Kaitos, Fire Emblem Path of Radiance, a couple of really strong Harvest Moon games, etc... I started playing RPGs a couple of years ago when I dusted off my Gamecube and I was blown away by just how many really stellar RPGs there are on this console. The N64, Wii and Wii U came nowhere near the GCN in the RPG genre, in my opinion. That said, In terms of mainline Mario games I have to agree with you. I thought Sunshine was a massive let-down. |
In terms of RPGs, fair enough, but seeing core franchises like Mario and Starfox go from being badass on 64 to lame on the Gamecube was a bitter pill to swallow.
