The best Gamecube games of all time

The cream of the crop when it comes to Nintendo's little console

Nintendo's GameCube first hit shelves two decades ago. Here are our favorite games for the adorable box...

7. SOULCALIBUR 2

A stellar sequel to one of the best fighters of all time. The GameCube version proves the definitive edition thanks to the inclusion of Link. 

6. STAR WARS ROGUE SQUADRON 

Blowing up TIE fighters in an X-Wing is cool. Doing so in a superb game on the day you bought your shiny new GameCube is mind-blowing. One of the best Star Wars games ever. 

5. PRINCE OF PERSIA: THE SANDS OF TIME

Bringing the Prince into the present thanks to a riveting rewind system, this is one of the best series reboots in video game history. 

4. SUPER SMASH BROS. MELEE

Take Nintendo's world-renowned characters, throw them into expertly crafted arenas, and have them fight until only one is left standing. The result? A fabulous fighting game. 

3. RESIDENT EVIL 4

A horror classic that keeps the scares coming at a rapid pace, mixing brutal firefights and buckets of gore to terrific effect. 

2. METROID PRIME

An astontishing reboot of a true icon. Samus' first 3D adventure provides a sense of wonder and scope few other GameCube titles can match. 

1. THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: THE WIND WAKER

A bold, brilliant Zelda entry that ditches the serious tone of Majora's Mask for a charming and cuddly cel-shaded world. A masterpiece.
