Gamecube was a beast at the time too. I remember very few games that gen that wowed me as much as GCN games like Rogue Squadron 2 & 3 or Resident Evil 4. Even N64, though limited by carts, was still robust hardware for its gen.

Yeah the Cube was pretty potent.
I remember when Luigi's Mansion first came out and I gave that game a good play... I was amazed by the Bump mapping and lighting in that game... And how the lighting would accentuate the bump maps.

Shame the Wii, Wii U and Switch are a step down from their competitors home consoles in terms of hardware capabilities, makes you wonder what "could have been" if the Zelda games on those platforms had modern powerful hardware backing them.

Starfox Adventures, F-Zero GX, and Metroid Prime 2 gave me a good wow back then as well. I'd go so far as to say that the best looking 'Cube games hold up very well today.

While it would've been nice to play TP/SS in 360 graphics and Botw in PS4 graphics, I think that going with weaker hardware was unfortunately necessary for Nintendo; their attempts to be competitive power-wise just weren't working out.
