I don't think the wiimote would make a Resident Evil game better, it won't be as scary if I'm waving my arms around. I like to play these types of games while I'm in bed and with the lights off.

 


At no point playing this game did i wave my arms


Really... what about the QTEs, like early in the game when Leon is running away from that rolling boulder. I know I was waving my arms pretty wildly. On Gamecube, you are mashing "A" button if I remember correctly.

i slightly moved my hand, it doesnt take your whole arm

Haven't played a Gamecube game in awhile. I had a ton at one point but ended up selling most of them. I do feel the urge to play through Eternal Darkness again though.. fantastic game. Same with ToS.



Not much to discover really. I have maybe 20 games for it and out of those I only enjoyed 15. GC was diffently Nintys low point. Not just in sells, but in the content they also made.

I personally enjoyed the GCN era myself.  Enjoying 15 out 20 games isn't too bad a ratio.  Plus those 15 games could take many hours of multiplayer fun.  Super Smash Bros Melee, Mario Kart, etc had tons of replay value in the multiplayer department.   This era was my college years, so I played a shitload of Melee and Double Dash.   Anyways, games like Time Splitters 2, F-Zero GX, Ikaruga, Killer 7, Luigi's Mansion, Paper Mario: TTYD, Super Monkey Ball 2, Beach Spikers, etc were all very nice games for GCN.



Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door is easily my favorite in the Paper Mario series. Also I second all the shout outs to Eternal Darkness, still haven't played another game quite like it. I'm currently playing through Wind Waker in advance of OoT3d and Skyward Sword, and it's way better than I remember (and i liked it alright the first time!)



LISTEN TO THE FIRST WORLD PODCAST REAL GAMERS, REAL AWESOME

I didnt hate it, but the Mario Kart was the lowest of the series. Only reason I ever played it much was my GF liked to play it with me. Same for Mario Sunshine the one and only Mario game I wish I had not bought. While I enjoyed some games I just find it Nintys forgetable console.



Super Mario Sunshine is an awesome game. I will never understand why some people don't seem to like it.

After using the Wiimote, I can't go back to ancient controllers. But NPC is going to help me try GC games I wouldn't have, like Pikmin and Wind Waker (hopefully in the 25th pack).
