    Hey, everybody. Thank you for all your suggestions. I just got a job and started working. So, I'll save up some cash now and get my new Gamecube in about 2-3 weeks.

    If you have anymore suggestions... please feel free to tell me. ^^

    Heres a list of games i would recomend.

    Super Smash Bros. Melee
    An awesome gamecube game.It is extremely fun when playing multiplayer against friends, and it is still fun when playing multiplayer against CPUs.

    Tales of Syphonia
    Another awesome game, great story, challenging enemys, cel-shaded graphics, and over 80 hours of gameplay.

    Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker
    Challenging enemys, cel-shaded graphics, and over 40 hours of gameplay.

    Final Fanasy: Crystal Chronicals
    Great game for Final Fantasy fans, challenging enemys and bosses, yet, if you are good enough, the game can get too easy.

    Mario Kart: Double Dash
    A fun racing game that is like Mario Kart 64 and Mario Kart: Super Circut, but with some new features.

    NBA Street V3
    A very fun game if you like basketball.With the features to create new basketball players, and teams, the game can be long and fun.There is also other features like create a court, and you can play as people not in the NBA like the Beastie Boys, and you can play as the following nintendo characters: Mario, Luigi, and Peach.

    Paper Mario 2: The Thousand-Year-Door
    A fun game, you don't need to play the first Paper Mario since the storyline is almost totally different from Paper Mario 1, the arena in Glitzville is fun and there are certain requrements with each arena challenge.

    Upcoming GC games i would recomend:

    FE Path of Radiance
    Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness
    Legend of Zelda: The Twilight Princess
    Shadow the Hedhodge

    Personally I wouldn't buy a GCN right now. I'd wait for the revolution since it's backwards compatible anyway. Here's a list of some of the best games for the GCN. There's 69 titles on that list so I'm sure you can narrow it down a bit yourself based on your interests.

    Thanks for the list, Triforce89. I know it's a good idea to wait for the Revolution, but I'll just stick with my first plan of buying a used Gamecube. I still think it's around $60 depending where I look. And I know a few places.

    I have made up my mind when I'm getting my Gamecube. There's a No Tax Day in the state where I live, meaning that if I buy something, I won't have to pay sales tax. ^^

    However, that is next month, but I will buy a few games between now and then. I want to get Resident Evil 4, Super Smash Bros. Melee, Mario Kart Double Dash, Super Mario Sunshine and maybe a few others.

    I do thank all of you for your suggestions. ^^

    Well, it depends what games you're into. ^_^ I actually like RPGs more than Adventures. So I'd settle for:

    First Choice: The Legend of Zelda - The Wind Waker: Great game. Although it has very bad graphics (like cels, giving it the nickname; "Celda"), it is still a good game. Not as big as tOoT, or MM, but it is enjoyable, and some parts are challenging. The storyline is original and interesting, and the characters, dungeons, and towns are all uniquely designed.

    Second Choice: Pokemon Colosseum: Pokemon games are my second favorite type of RPGs (games like Zelda coming first). Pokemon Colosseum has a few drawbacks, but good points, too. First off, Pokemon Colosseum lacks the "C-control", the ability to move the camera around to change the angle. Although it is 3-D, it is not as free as most games. The C-control lack can be very annoying sometimes. Second, the graphics are rushed. Thanks to the "wonderful" Bill Gates's X-Box, Gamecube has to rush a lot of their games these days. When looking at the shadows (and even characters and locations), there are often glitches in their appearance. The good points of this game are that the storyline is good and deep, and the protagonist a hottie. ^^

    I still enjoy a nice Adventure game sometimes, though. My first and only choice is:

    Super Mario Sunshine: This game is NO WHERE near as good as its "predecessor", Super Mario 64. While it had over 15 worlds to explore, SMS only has 7 (9 if you include the final Bowsa battle, and the homing point (Delfino Plaza=Peach's Castle on SM64). And they are no where near as grandly designed as SM64, either. But to compare these games is unfair. This game was rushed (thankyou, X-Box), to keep Gamecube going. It does, however, have a good storyline. Deeper than SM64, and it has more plot. It also has amazing graphics. Although they could have done better with the shadows. (Circles, except Mario.) An annoying fact about this game is all the invisible walls and fake doors. Nothing annoys me more than them. But it is an Adventure game, so such is to be expected. If you've ever played SM64 (which most people have, and if not, some of its misses will score with the new version, Super Mario 64 DS), then just think of Super Mario Sunshine as a SM64 clone (although no where near as good).
