My girlfriend just got a Wii, and I thought I'd ask here in a new thread than hi-jack the other.
What are some good classics to download? I figure they are kind of more expensive than I thought, so it'd be nice to know exactly which ones to watch out for.
Also, what are some good Gamecube games? They seem a lot cheaper now, so it'll be easy enough to get some.
Starfox (N64)
The colour Kirby game
Echo the Dolphin (if you're into long and relaxing adventure games)
Zelda: Links adventure (something like that)
To name a few.
Kid Icarus. :D
Link's Adventure is the worst Zelda game. :P Get any of the other ones before you get Link's Adventure.
Great game!Quote:

Get The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Now.
Star Fox 64 and Paper Mario are definitely good choices. Super Mario 64 has some good replay value to it, too. :o
Super Smash Brothers Melee. This should be an obvious one.
Soul Calibur II
Super Mario Sunshine
Mario Kart: Double Dash
And many others.
If you can download N64 games, Diddy Kong Racing and Pokemon Stadium. Definitely.
Those aren't out on the VC just yet, as far as I know. >_>Quote:

Link.
Cool, thanks guys. =)
I think Donkey Kong Country 1 & 2 would be good as well.
What other Gamecube games can you recommend?
Virtual Console
- Paper Mario (N64)
- TLoZ: Ocarina of Time (N64)
- Gunstar Heroes (GEN)
- Metroid (NES)
- Super Metroid (SNES)
Gamecube
- TLoZ: Wind Waker *must have*
- Paper Mario: TYD
- SM Sunshine
- SSB Melee
- Metroid Prime
Pikmin 2
Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes
Metroid Prime (GET IT!)
Baten Kaitos
Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door
I recommend those. >_>
There are a lot of lost treasures among the GameCube library out there. It really depends on what kinds of games you guys like.
I think every game that has been mentioned so far is worth your money. Most of them are published by Nintendo, after all. :p Here are some more that I personally own or would recommend:
Viewtiful Joe (and/or VJ2)
Eternal Darkness
Beyond Good and Evil (if you don't have it for another console)
Prince of Persia (if you don't have it for another console)
Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike (if you're at all into Star Wars or flight games)
RESIDENT EVIL 4
Animal Crossing
Ikaruga
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
F-Zero GX (Hard as :skull::skull::skull::skull:, though)
Skies of Arcadia Legends (A little dated now, but still fun)
Make sure you have a couple wavebirds, too. Not many things are more lame than having a brand new wireless console that you use old wired technology with. :p
From the Virtual Console, get these
Breath of Fire II
Donkey Kong Country 1 and 2
Paper Mario(N64)
Star Fox 64
Shining Force(though I own the GBA version and I recommend getting that version instead)
Street of Rage 2
Star Soldier
TMNT(NES)
Metroid
Super Metroid
As for Gamecube games, I highly recommend these
Bloody Roar Primal Fury
F-Zero GX
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
Fire Emblem Path of Radiance
Mario Superstar Baseball
Mario Kart Double Dash
Mega Man X Collection
Mega Man X Command Mission
Metroid Prime 1 and 2
Mystic Heroes
Paper Mario TTYOD
Phantasy Star Online Ep 1 and 2
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Skies of Arcadia Legends
Tales of Symphonia
Viewtiful Joe
Nooo don't get that on the gamecube, it's on the Wii now and much better.Quote:
