This should come as no surprise to you all... - PaperMarioLover - 08-20-2026

I think I'm going to get the Gamecube version playable on my computer of Paper Mario:  The Thousand Year Door.  What other games should I play on Gamecube?  Is there an emulator out for the Switch yet does anybody know?

I'd recommend Eternal Dark, Metroid Prime 1 and 2, F-Zero GX and Super Monkey Ball 1 and 2. Great stuff.

Awesome thanks!

If you're into Zelda, Wind Waker and Twilight Princess are both worth a try.

Super Mario Sunshine is an obvious answer, of course.

I love all of those!  Especially Twilight Princess, to me that is the best Zelda game!

Some GameCube games I'd recommend checkin' out are Sonic Adventure 2: Battle, Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut, Sonic Gems Collection, Kirby Air Ride, Wario World, and Luigi's Mansion.

I might be in the minority on this, but I thought Geist was a really good game. Same for 1080 Avalanche, if you like snowboarding games. Most of the other games I could recommend aren't exclusives, but I'll do it anyway: TimeSplitters 2 and Future Perfect are amazing if you like either GoldenEye 007 or Perfect Dark.

I don't know if you like Mortal Kombat, but the GameCube version of Deception is notable because it includes a few extra characters, like Shao Kahn. He's really underpowered in this game, but even so. Deception has a really cool Chess Kombat mode, where you play a VS. match if someone tries to capture a piece. If you like EA Sports games, SSX On Tour and NBA Street vol.3 both feature a few playable Mario characters. Also, Fight Night Round 2 on GameCube includes Super Punch-Out as a bonus, which is a SNES game, but it's still a cool bonus.

edit: completely forgot to say *which* Mortal Kombat it is that has extra content. Also added something about Fight Night Round 2. GameCube's got plenty of dudebro games in addition to classic Nintendo muscle from first-party games.

If you like fighting games I recommend Tom and Jerry in War of the Whiskers. And if you like indie games with a run and gun genre I recommend Alien Hominid.

Wow thanks guys for the recs!  I'll be checking into them.  Right now thought I'm playing the Thousand Year Door remake.  I'm playing to get inspiration for my own game.

Everyone already posted the obvious picks, so I'll suggest my favorite game that's flown under the radar, Vexx.

It's a 3D platformer akin to 64 and Sunshine, but with a darker atmosphere

I'm sold!  I'll have to look into that.  By the way, your game looks cool DJ Coco!  I'll have to play the demo for your game.  When is it coming out?

Geist and TimeSplitters 2 mentioned in the same post. Mad props to you, buddy.

Speaking of TimeSplitters, Second Sight is a recommendation from me. Made from the same developers, about psionic abilities, has an incredible story, and wonderful visuals for the Gamecube era.


Also, Billy Hatcher. I am not kidding.

How exciting!  I watched your video on it.  Looks interesting, and that's a lot coming from me cause, I normally hate shooter games.

I thought of you and that game when I was writing this post. Didn't want to steal your thunder by recommending it.
