omg there should never be something overrated/underrated.

any console from this gen that sells horribly in the end (either U or ONE) will be underrated in 2 gens too.

N64 - People know it's good, but local multiplayer hasn't been the same since. I still have mine plugged in.

----

NES - I don't care much about
SNES - people often regard as the best Nintendo system
GCN - Has an over-rated niche crowd. GCN had some good games, but nothing ridiculous like SNES/N64/Wii had
Wii - meh, love me some XenoBlade and Zelda, but overall it does collect dust.

GC had the best of Zelda, Metroid, Smash, Paper Mario, F-Zero and Resident Evil..

I dunno....Metroid Prime was definately the best Metroid, but it's not much better then Super Metroid.

Zelda & Paper Mario I strongly disagree with, the N64 iterations were much much much better, and if you count Super Mario RPG then Mario RPG's were best on the SNES. Zelda is also better on the Wii then GCN.

Melee is the best Smash, but again not much better then the N64 iteration. Same with F-Zero GX, best on Cube, but not much better then N64.

As for Resident Evil, that's a 3rd party game, not exclusive, and better on Wii.

Plus look at everything else, the worst Mario Kart/Super Mario, all the worst Mario Party's, sub-par Starfox's and no epic JRPG (Baten Kaitos was good, but nothing compared to Tactics Ogre on N64 and XenoBlade on Wii). Pikmin was nice though.

GC for sure. It had some decent titles outside the core ninty enthusiast kind of stuff but sadly most ignored it including myself because the ps2 had waaaaaay more options and back then I didn't even have enough money to keep up with the stuff I wanted to play on ps2 let alone get another console.

Gamecube.

The Thousand-Year Door and Smash Melee alone made it way worth it, not to mention Double Dash, Wind Waker, Mario Strikers, Metroid Prime, and other greats.

I can understand why you would disagree with me regarding Zelda, but Paper Mario? TTYD was better than 64 in every way, shape or form if you ask me..

It was of similar quality, and a great sequel, but it's just that a sequel. Even if the game was 100% as good as Paper Mario 1 (which I don't think it was), it loses its wow factor completely.

Then again Paper Mario was a let down considering Super Mario RPG came not long before it. I just love Nintendo in the 90's, but early 2000's were good too. Gamecube was a great system for 2001/2002, and bits afterward.

Hands down GC. Most underrated console of all time behind the Dreamcast and TurboGrafix-16.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

Eh.. I loved TTYD more because it made the turn-based battles more engaging, it had some interesting paper gimmicks, etc... But all three of those role-playing Mario games are awesome at the end of the day..
