Nintendo GameCube

The Nintendo Gamecube is Nintendos sixth home video game console. The Gamecube comes in a purple colour though later on they released the console in black, platinum and eve white, as the name suggests it is a cube shape but has a carry handle on the top to aid in transportation of the console. It isn't the best looking machine I have ever seen, it looks rather likea Fisher Price toy! Despite looking like a cheap toy it has a good weight to it and feels very solidly built. In the box with the console you receive the Gamecube machine itself, a wired Gamecube controller, composite video cables, power cords and instruction manuals. Everything you need ...  Read the complete review

The Nintendo Gamecube has to be one of the best consoles of all time in my opinion. It's got a cool design and a huge variety of different games - most of which were really fun and there were some great ones especially. You can get one nowadays for around £15.00 second hand as they aren't produced anymore. You can get either a purple or black one. You may think that they are consoles for children, but they appeal to adults too as they have plenty of games such as Metroid and Resident Evil 4 especially, which is ideal for adults - some adults would even be too scared to play Resident Evil 4! The gamecube is shaped as a cube, hence its name. There is ...  Read the complete review

OK, the Gamecube was a console that I bought a few years back. After that, most of my friends had Playstation 2s which had more popular games and more power in the console itself. The console itself is an odd design, being a cube instead of the usual cuboid shaped console, and has a handle for easy carrying (for whatever reason) and comes in many colours such as purple, black, platinum, with the standard being purple. It takes mini sized CDs, which are smalled than normal CDs, so easier to store I guess. There are four sockets for controllers, so you can play with four players, and there are another two ports on the front of the Gamecube. You ...  Read the complete review

The Nintendo Gamecube hasn't had any games released for it for a while so it can basically be described as dead due to the release of the Wii. I am reviewing it now because you can pick up used consoles for as low as twenty pounds and games for about a fiver each so if you are looking for a cheap option or a games console for a child who is not interested in any of the more modern options, then this is a good choice. Unlike it's competitors, the Gamecube could never play DVD's which is one obvious disadvantage and possibly one of the reasons for its lack of success. It may not have had very good graphics but there are some very good games available for it, ...  Read the complete review
