Why haven't nintendo given us a gamecube classic mini yet?
Why haven't nintendo given us a gamecube classic mini yet?
gamecube has like, 3 good exclusives on it
also a normal gamecube is already small enough
>3 good exclusives on it
is this bait?
Because they're currently developing the GameBoy classic
let them finish scalping the hipsters first
Gameboy without Gameboy colour is a useless classic, considering you can get all the pokémon games with working pokébank, right now.
They wouldn't make that they would have to give too much game and they don't want that
Will we have the switch mini in 20 years?
Because that would take effort instead of just slapping Linux with an emulator onto a one board computer with off the shelf components.
To get a decent GC emulator you would need a bit more power, and thus a smaller profit margin.
because they use the same ARM chip for both SNES and NES and it's not even close to emulating gamecube.
The closest you could get to that is the nvidia shield tv, a $200 box that uses the same hardware as the nintendo switch.

and these are just 1st party GC exclusives. Troll harder.
they would need a 64gb nand for gc, plus what said.

also nintendo has said that the most expensive thing about NES/SNES mini production is the licensing for the games.
>Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
That's what I'm talking about.
You can get a one board computers for around 80 bucks that can emulate gamecube games.
Now imagine doing it in large scale production, scaling back components enough to play GC games in native res with an official emulator and I'm sure you could get that 80 bucks down quite a bit.
Though obviously that would take a lot of work and the Mini's are for scamming fans and "I'm such a nerd XD" people.

>blah bait blah

Wait 9 years.
If they do make a gamecube mini, they need to put f-zero gx on it. Seriously, It's the greatest game of last decade
yes but the cost of the licensing would kill profits and they might even operate at a loss
Never happening there is no nostalgia power for GameCube and there are no classic games that people have to play and it would be too expensive...N64 will be the last mini console they do
I don't know. I think you could get by with using only Nintendo games. It's not like they need 30 games on there if it's GC games.
A console should be at least 25, or 4 generations old before receiving the "classic" treatment.
N64 2021
Gamecube 2026

>heres your controller, bro
>Nintendo Switch Classic Mini in 5 years
GET HYPE
I have a Game Boy mini and it is marvelous.
>mini
GODDAMN,
GB micro, MICRO I meant!
>The last 2 Nintendo consoles had native GC support, the Wii U just didnt let you use it without hacking but it had it
>People demand a classic GCN
wew
The only way I could see this working is if they have leftover Wii Mini consoles that could be modified to play Gamecube games natively.
The original Wii is the mini Gamecube
it literally would only have melee on it
that was the ULTIMATE "no games" console
Why is it called the nintendo shitcube? Because it's a fucking piece of shit.
REMINDER THAT NINTENDO IS MAKING GAMEBOY CLASSIC
scalpers are rejoicing
Because dont enough retro, most people dont know Gamecube exist
Jesus Christ this board is retarded.
How much would it cost to get dolphin running on something like a raspberry pi and enclose that in a mini GC shell?
I'm surprised nobody tried this yet.
To be more clear about this faggot's complaining let's look at franchises listed:
>Fzero
>Final Fantasy
>Fire emblem
>Kirby
>Zelda
>Mario
>Mario
>Mario
>Mario
>Star Fox (worst game in the fucking series)
>Mario
>Mario
>"Nintendo"
>Mario
>Jet Skis
>Mario (party 4)
Not included on your list are the other mario party games
>Mario (party 5)
>Mario (party 6)
>Mario (party 7)
I get it. I'm a huge Nintendo faggot myself. I know it's Nintendo and Mario is their cash cow. I understand that behind each mario game are different styles of gameplay (i.e. mario kart plays nothing like paper mario which is nothing like mario party) and that they're also all pretty fucking good. But honestly sometimes the characters and designs get a little too boring and overused. If anything, since the gamecube Nintendo has relied too heavily on Mario.
I don't know where I was going with this post. Fuck it. That's all
>what's that? You want to play some GameCube games? Here's a GameCube
>you can also use this Wii if you don't want to deal with discs
>or this Wii U if you want a semi-handheld experience
>or if you have a 500$ phone, you can use Dolphin for android and get a pretty good handheld experience but without buttons
>or this fucking toaster if you want 60 fps with mods
Seriously, what is it with the GameCube? It didn't have SNES or PS2 quality games yet Nintendo and hackers made it so you can play it literally everywhere and people only talk about Baten kaitos, Melee and Eternal Darkness, sometimes Metal Gear but that's it.
Waiting to see how good the Virtual Console on the Switch works out, hopefully comparable to the Wii
Please give me a new gameboy.
>30 days battery life
>20 of the most popular games
>switch between color and monochrome
>built like a fucking brick
Because they have to give us Virtual Boy Mini and Nintendo 64 Mini first.
...
Soul Calibur 2
Resident Evil 0
Metal Gear Solid The Twin Snakes
Are the Megaman X ports any good?
I'd argue though, besides for the Mario party Series, all of the mario games are incredibltt different. Sure, it's the same IP, but Sunshine != Strikes != Golf != Part != Melee != Luigi's Mansion. Like, yes they are all Mario, but none of those games are remotely alike and, imo, are all standout games in general, not just GC exclusives.
I swear nobody else remembers this game, besides renting FF3 for SNES from Blockbuster, this was my into to the series and so amazing
Now try naming 3 good 3rd party games for Gamecube that are exclusive to the system.
The only good games there are PoR, Double Dash, And Melee.
Yeah
>>F-Zero GX
niche
>>Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
niche
>>Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance
niche
>>Kirby Air Ride
crap
>>The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
not an exclusive anymore
>>Luigi's Mansion
rushed crap
>>Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour
you are getting desperate?
>>Mario Kart: Double Dash!!
crap
>>Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
ok, you got 1
>>Star Fox Adventures
Dinosaur Planet w/ Star Fox shit hacked in
Not Star Fox
>>Super Mario Strikers
crap
>>Super Mario Sunshine
rushed crap
>>Super Smash Bros. Melee
boring
>>Wario World
nope
>>Wave Race: Blue Storm
niche
>>Mario Party 4
crap
You know I got a few:
Eternal Darkness
Battalion Wars
Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes
And that's basically it.
Of course a Gamecube mini could give us TimeSplitters 2+3 once more, which actually would be great.
can we please stop with these stupid fucking mini consoles.
just bring virtual console, with all the games from all the systems, to the switch already
Oh wait, how could I forget:
Star Wars Rogue Leader: Rogue Squadron II
Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike
Also for you faggot ^^
For a 3rd one, I got nothing.
>Those physical collections suck
>give us more overpriced digital download crap, which won't be accessible in 5 or 6 years anymore.
No, GO AWAY
That Mega Man Battle Network game
F-Zero was developed by Sega
Star Fox assault was developed by namco
Want to move the goal post further?
ok, how about sticking collections of games on switch cartridges? LIke Sega did with its 3d games classics.
I'd buy that.
>can we please stop with these stupid fucking mini consoles.
Can (You) think of a good way to stop retards from buying them?
>Want to move the goal post further?
If you insist... name 3 good 3rd party Gamecube games that aren't based on Nintendo's IPs like Star Fox and F-Zero.
n64 classic has to come first and I think a gamecube classic would be to expensive to make
>ok, how about sticking collections of games on switch cartridges?
(((They))) won't do that though.
(((They))) won't have full control over them.
And (((they))) won't be able to shut it all down when time comes (like for the Wii eShop).
So stupid customers will have to buy them again.
And even doing that would be crap:
>Be Switch "console"
>Be shitty home console and shitty portable console all at the same time
>Be battery powered
>kike overlords don't want customers to replace batteries anymore
>So at some point they will all be kill
Tales of Symphonia
Baten Kaitos (Monolith belonged to Namco at the time)
Resident Evil 4
Don't forget that there was a system between SNES and N64 that has to come before N64 Classic Mini.
user those wont work, he'll just claim because ToS and Resi4 were ported later on that they can't be considered Gamecube games anymore.
Whats this girl from only yume 2ikki shows up
>name 3 good 3rd party Gamecube games
There are almost no good exclusives anymore, but you didn't ask for those.
Resident Evil 4
REmake
Star Wars Rogue Squadron 2
Star Wars Rebel Strike
TimeSplitters 2
TimeSplitters 3
Killer7
Super Monkey Ball 1+2
i ain't falling for this shit again
...
>Resident Evil 4
Much could be said about the "Only for Nintendo Gamecube" part of Resident Evil 4 but since I forgot the exclusive to the system part from my goal posts I'll let it slide.
Still if you want try naming 3 good 3rd party Gamecube games that are exclusive to the system and aren't based on Nintendo's IPs or ports of older games.
Is flash memory cheap enough yet to make something like a GC, PS1 or PS2 mini?
Even some PS1 games are multiple GB
>"Only for Nintendo Gamecube"
exclusive contracts either end or are changed at some point.
MGS2+3 were also supposed to be PS2 exclusives. And now they aren't anymore.
>Still if you want try naming 3
I already did. I actually named 8.
test
For PS1/PS2 surely not.
Gamecube games were tiny in size. It was a bit more than 1 GB each disc.
NES mini had 30 games.
SNES mini had 21 games.
N64 mini will probably feature 11 games.
And Gamecube mini will probably feature 6 games.
So checks out.
pls I literally addressed this
>I know it's Nintendo and Mario is their cash cow. I understand that behind each mario game are different styles of gameplay (i.e. mario kart plays nothing like paper mario which is nothing like mario party) and that they're also all pretty fucking good. But honestly sometimes the characters and designs get a little too boring and overused. If anything, since the gamecube Nintendo has relied too heavily on Mario.
I'm in full agreement that Nintendo can make solid as fuck gameplay across many different genres/games, but their art and character design is severely lacking in terms of being similarly interesting and unique. That said, they're classics. They're well established. The characters themselves have tons of opportunity for gameplay elements to be attached to them. And most importantly, they fucking sell well. So I get the rationale from Nintendo.
Really all I'm saying is I think it's a little bit tiring to have tons of majorly fun games from Nintendo just be "Mario does x" "Mario and the gang does Y" "Mario's brother does Z"
>all of the mario games are incredibltt different
>Luigi's Mansion
>yes they are all Mario
wait
>it definitely won't have animal crossing because of nes games
I'm ready for it all to end, before it even starts.
GameCube had so many more good exclusives. It’s beloved by U.S. anons but irrationally hated by euros for some reason.
Face it. They're never going to ramp production on $60 controllers that break themselves.
...
GameCube>N64 by a pretty wide margin.
...
a best, just bought Metal Arms for it, hope it's not shit
Resident Evil 4 was exclusive to the gamecube for a pretty long period of time, user.
That's like saying Okami isn't a ps2 game just because it came out on the Wii years later.
It was part of the Capcom Five, only ported to recoup lost costs for being a GC exclusive.
Not a main console. It's on par with asking for claasic versions of the multiple disk drives/additions for the NES and SNES.
>hope it's not shit
Don't worry it's not. Get ready to get real sad after you're done when you realize there will never be a sequel
>This console has no good games
>Here are some well reviewed games
>They're all shit
t. brainlet
yeah whenever it's mentioned that's always brought up, lots of gamecube gems never got the sequels they deserved
anyone played Wario World want to comment on it?
Seriously WHY do people buy these Classic Mini consoles? For the prize of NES or SNES Minis you could buy the original consoles, flash carts for them and have 90% of their game library available to you instead of just 20 games per system. Also if you never sold your systems WHY the fuck would you buy these overpriced versions of them?
Sup Forums summed up perfectly.
Novelty of having a tiny nes/snes with all nes/snes games. It also doesn't hurt that it doesn't look like rat-chewed etsy garbage.
Plus official reproductions of the controllers.
That too. At least they're keeping with their standard instead of abandoning it wholesale.
>Been about a month now
>Can't find snes classic anywhere
>80$ vs 140$ on Amazon
Do I wait longer or just fucking fold and buy one?
Mini SFC's are being resold for like $20 more than they retail. If you don't need the NA version.
People are predicting another huge reshipment before black Friday but it depends on how much your time is worth really.
