Our take on the Nintendo Gamecube
The GameCube is Nintendo's compact sixth-generation console, built around a top-loading disc drive and four controller ports for local multiplayer. This is a refurbished Platinum unit that comes with a controller and cables, so it is ready to play out of the box. Its library leans on Nintendo first-party games and four-player couch sessions, which is where it still beats most rivals. Compared with the PlayStation 2 and original Xbox it has a smaller library and no DVD playback, but it is smaller, quieter and cheaper to get into for Nintendo fans.
- Four controller ports built in for local multiplayer
- Small, quiet, reliable hardware
- Strong Nintendo first-party library
- Top-loading drive is simple and durable

Questions and answers
- Is the GameCube worth it over a PlayStation 2?
- Pick the GameCube for Nintendo exclusives and four-player local play. The PlayStation 2 has a much larger library and doubles as a DVD player.
- Does it play Game Boy games?
- Not on its own. Game Boy titles need the Game Boy Player accessory, which fits under the console and is sold separately.
- What comes in the box?
- A refurbished Platinum console, one controller and the cables needed to connect and power it. Games and memory cards are not included.
- How many players can play at once?
- Up to four, using the four controller ports on the front. Extra controllers are needed for more than one player.
- Does it connect to a modern TV?
- It outputs analog video through the included cables. Most modern TVs need an adapter or a compatible input, since the console has no HDMI output.
- Can it play online?
- The original online service is shut down. Online play is only possible through unofficial community setups.
- What do buyers say about the Nintendo Gamecube?
- Rated 4.1 out of 5 from 33 ratings.
