Michelangelo may have created the Sistine Chapel but this video far surpasses any creative masterpiece done by an Italian man. I've heard of the skittles game but didn't know the proper name for it. Using Skittles magic would be fun but I wish they had a spell called "Taste the Rainbow" although in today's world that'd be a pretty gay spell. Space Raiders and Darkened Skye both have pretty cool cover art. I have Odama and I can't wait to play it. I love bizarre games like it. Pinball games can be quite fun so I need to give it a try. GoGo Hypergrind!! You were telling me about it and the... perks of it. I love bouncing on jugs. Billy Hatcher, I just picked up not too long ago. Gotcha Force I want so bad just to rub it in your face haha. The aesthetics of Cubivore reminds me of LittleBig Planet. Wonderful video buddy!
Wow, what an amazing compliment! Yeah, Darkened Skye (Skittles game) could’ve *maybe* had the potential to be something fun…but didn’t quite stick the landing from the time I spent on it lol. Odama is one I think you’d get a kick out of, but be prepared for a challenge! Go Go Hypergrind is a blast…jugs and all 🤣! Billy Hatcher is definitely a fun platformer, but one I really want to go back and finish. Gotcha Force is sooooooo stupid expensive lol. It’s funny, I had the same though about Cubivore’s aesthetic reminding my of LittleBigPlanet’s. Glad you enjoyed the video man! Truly means a lot!
Billy Hatcher has always been 🔥. Well that Gotcha Force gameplay was... interesting 😂
Billy Hatcher is one I need to finish, and do an in-depth review for one day! I really liked what I played so far for this episode! Gotcha Force is one that seems to be a cult classic. While I didn't "love" what I played so far, it is still fun. Just not $450+ of "fun" lol. Thanks for checking out the video!
I want the NBA Courtside bobblehead for the collection. That Darkened Sky voice acting was incredible. 😂
That would be an awesome bobble head to get! Yeah, Darkened Skye’s voice acting is bad haha
@@GameCubeGalaxy 19:19 from which game is this cinematic ?
@@thesteammachine1282 That cinematic is from Space Raiders. Hope that helps!
@@GameCubeGalaxy Yeah, I actually just discovered the name by watching one of your other videos(awesome by the way) and Im currently hunting for it on ebay XD. For some reason it is full of ps2 version but gamecube are quite few and expensive for pal and us . Any idea if its ok to play the Jap or Korean version ? There isnt any important dialog or text to follow, right ? Haven't seen anyone on CZcams to play the japanese release by the way.
Home Run King looked pretty good for that era of sports game visuals. Really interesting list of titles that I truly don’t remember seeing in stores. Constantly learning about new GC titles with this channel 🙌🏽
Home Run King is definitely a really good baseball game and nice visuals. Glad you learned about more games you never knew of before! Thanks for checking out the video man!
My all-time favorite is Star Fox adventures! Such a hidden gem
It really is an underappreciated game! I always loved it. May need to do an in-depth review for it on the channel one day as well 👍. Thanks for checking out the video!
I'd love to see a full review dedicated to Odama! Eighteen years later, it still seems to still be viewed as a strange gimmick, but the propulsive sound design, historical fiction aspect, comic book dialogue, and oral control scheme all contribute something special to Nintendo's legacy, especially as it attempts to instill an ethical quality in the 'Way of Heavenly Duty'. It's sad to say that it would've received a far warmer welcome on a SEGA console, since Yutaka Saito's Seaman at least garnered a Japan-exclusive sequel on the PlayStation 2.
Oh man, Odama would be a good one to review one day! I have wanted to go back and try to complete the game to do a more in-depth review on it. It was an odd one, but also very clever and unique as well. Thanks for checking out the video!
Home run king is definitely an entertaining baseball game, you are so right it does have that Sega attitude Quality title.
Home Run King is one I missed back in the day, but capturing it for this episode, I was getting really into it! I miss the days of Sega’s arcade-style flair. Thanks for checking out the video!
Music kicks in, and in my head I immediately hear "Ready, GO".
Odama still has a special place in my collection. In a dark corner of my collection, but somehow I still love it as well.
And I'm surprised they haven't tried to bring back Billy Hatcher.
Cubivore was to my knowledge never released in Europe, but I somehow managed to pick up a complete copy in a VERY good condition at a very reasonable price (considering) back in the day, and still have it. I think I paid about 45 euro's ( which is almost 1 to 1 with dollars I think). Quickly checking current prices, and wow... People have gone insane.
Haha I’m the same way with that Super Monkey Ball music! Odama is definitely a unique game! Challenging for sure, but fun! Billy Hatcher I can’t understand why they haven’t done anything with him. The first game was really solid from what I played. Correct, Cubivore actually wasn’t released in Europe for some reason. Glad you got a CiB copy of it! Thanks for checking out the video, and glad you enjoyed it!
@@GameCubeGalaxy The Odama artwork and the big box and the sheer absurdity of the game also just make me WANT to love it, which may be part of the reason why I do love it. If they just said "here's a pinball game on a battlefield" I'd probably just have thought "...alright, weird, but so what?" and have given it little more thought.
Yeah Billy Hatcher just screamed "first game in a new IP", but it also begged for the IP to be improved and continued upon, definitely not to be left to be forgotten.
I remember LOVING Billy Hatcher as a kid! I have to find it for a reasonable price for my GameCube. Cubivore was great too!
Nice! Yeah, I’m surprised I didn’t get it back when it came out (being that I loved Sonic Team games). Hopefully you find a copy for a reasonable price! I will say, that’s one game that’s starting to hover closer to the $60+ range as opposed to $80+. Cubivore is a really neat one too! Thanks for checking out the video!
I always enjoy these list vids as you always show at least 1 or 2 games that I've never seen or heard before! For example, I've never heard of Home Run King's and I'm a huge fan of arcade sports games! My friends and I used to play the Home Run Derby in World Series Baseball 2 on the Saturn non stop back in the day, so I'm definitely interested in HRK! Will definitely had it to the wishlist! Great video and keep up the good work!
Thank you man! Home Run King is a great baseball (and cheap)! That’s awesome to hear about Home Run Derby multiplayer sessions with friends on the Saturn! I never played World Series Baseball 2, but heard good things! Glad you enjoyed the video man! Means a lot!
I can see why some of these never got a re-release but there's some really cool and unique games on here. Cubivore looks like it would fit right in on the Switch as one of those $9.99 indie games. I can't believe I've never tried Home Run King. That looks like a continuation of the World Series Baseball franchise. Excellent video as always!
I agree, Cubivore is definitely one I think would sell much better now on Switch. Home Run King is such a fun baseball game that oozes Sega flair, and still really cheap to get! Thanks for checking out the video man! Always appreciate your support!
I've not heard of most of these. Surprisingly, Cubivore got a tier mention in my showcase last year, so at least a few people have played it...
Cubivore is definitely a unique game, but quite fun! Glad you learned about some new GameCube games though! Thanks for checking out the video man! Always appreciate the support!
Man what an incredible video bro! One of my favorites on the channel! Your pacing is top notch dude!
Thank you man! That truly means a lot!
Cool games to discover, specially the rally one! And gotta say that the skateboarding game, man, those devs were using something weird...lol.
Great video!
Pro Rally was definitely a nice surprise! Far better than I expected! Haha, Go! Go! Hypergrind is WILD for sure lol. Glad you enjoyed the video!
Odama. The Demon's Souls of Pinball.
Haha you’re right! This game is brutal! Lol
Awesome video Marcello! I have NBA Courtside, I was surprised to see how expensive that game has gotten.
Thank you, Mark! NBA Courtside is really good, and has gone up a bit in price, but nothing crazy yet luckily.
Maybe I should pull it out of the trade/sell pile and hold onto it for a bit then.
great memories with the system keep up the good work
Thank you man! Really appreciate it!
definitely some cool games here. I always wanted home run king as it has Jeff Bagwell on the cover, glad to hear it didn't totally suck
Thanks man! Yeah, definitely look into Home Run King man! It's cheap, and honestly just a fun baseball game!
Another great video my dude! Definitely want to pick up space raiders and billy hatcher
Thank you man! Definitely recommend both of those games!
Great video man. The only game on the list I don’t own is Big Air Freestyle, but you’ve convinced me to pick it up. Can’t wait to see more from you.
Thank you man! Big Air Freestyle is a decent game for sure, and still on the reasonably priced side. Glad I could highlight that one for you! Awesome that you already have the others! Thanks for checking out the video!
@@GameCubeGalaxy you’re welcome. The Gamecube is my absolute favorite video game console, so it’s cool to find a channel like yours that’s dedicated to it.
@@pbloo574 Glad I could provide content that’s specified for the GameCube! Always felt the console never got the recognition it deserved, and try to do my best to provide quality content about the console and its games 👍
Suddenly I have the two BIG reasons to play GoGo Hypergrind…. Better go sell one of my kidneys
Lmao! Will one of those kidneys be enough to get the game though? 😂
Thanks for checking out the video man!
"Skittles Magic" was all I needed to hear to swear me off of Darkened Skye forever - not even the mighty Joe Madureira can get me to try it now.
Billy Hatcher is legitimately one of my top 5 GameCube games. :) Excellent video as always, my friend!
Haha yeah, Joe Madureira is an amazing artist, but his commissioned cover art for this game definitely won’t save it. Billy Hatcher is one I always wanted to play, and was really enjoying during my capture! Definitely one I want to complete and review on the channel! Thanks for checking out the video man!!
I still need to pick up Billy Hatcher. I love Sonic the Hedgehog and anything Sonic Team made and Billy Hatcher is one of those that I really want to get because of how unique it is and you can obviously tell that it was made by Sonic Team because of the charm included in the game. Also Yes I still need to get Go Go Hypergrind, Gotcha Force, and Cubivore as they're getting more harder to find and way more expensive but one day I'll own those games. Either way: Great Episode as always GameCube Galaxy.
Billy Hatcher is definitely a cool game from what I played so far! I was always a fan of Sonic Team games myself, and also want to get into PSO Episode 1&2 on the GameCube soon. Yeah, Go Go Hypergrind, Gotcha Force, and Cubivore are ludicrously expensive! Hope you can get them for as reasonable of a price as possible. Glad you enjoyed the episode!
Love your lists haven’t seen some of these
Thank you man! Glad you enjoy the lists and discover some new games in the process!
Speaking of New York the New Yorker is my fav pizza of all time!!!
Home run King is definitely the epitome of a Sega sports game! 1,000 % agree! A skittle game? Bahahaha it totally looks like a game you’d get in a box of early 2000s cereal. As a big fan of Space invaders I definitely wanna check out Space Raiders! Wrecking aliens never gets old! Pro Rally looks like it would be a “Good” love letter to Sega Rally. Wonder what @TigerChainsaw would have to say about this one? 🤔 KOBE! 🙏ODAMA looks like it would get annoying real quick lol loving the humor and art style of Go!Go! hyper grind. BILLY HATCHER! Yes! My favorite GameCube game! Nothing screams Sega on that era more than Billy Hatcher! Great list GCG! Stay awesome brother! 🤘
Home Run King is great! Screams Sega flair in a great way 👍. Darkened Skye definitely feels like a game that came out of a box of cereal 😂. Space Raiders is a fun time that’s a quick playthrough, and is a cool modern twist on Space Invaders. Pro Rally really is surprisingly good! I forgot TC didn’t like Sega Rally lol. Go! Go! Hypergrind is wild in the best way possible! Billy Hatcher is one I finally started up and really enjoying! Surprised Sega hasn’t done anything else with this property…
Glad you really enjoyed it! Thank you as always for checking out the video, and supporting the channel man!
I’d shell out on almost all the pricey PS1 RPGs before games like Cubivore, Gotcha Force, and Go Go Hypergrind, although it was tempting when I was buying for GCN.
There are definitely quite some pricey PS1 RPGs currently for sure. I still plan on having a complete GC game set, so funny enough, I’m selling my PS1 games to put funds toward GC games lol. Thank you for checking out the video!
It’s funny how the seasons change over the months and years of collecting. I have a lot of respect for the full set chasers/owners even though I’ve never aspired to it myself. With GameCube, I stopped at 112 titles and will likely let about 40 go. My priciest purchase was Path of Radiance. Now, I’m happy to have whatever games I’ll play or at least are most iconic across generations 5 and 6. I love how we’re all becoming amateur historians and scholars of sorts for those eras, and that’s why full set collectors are so great in the community. More power to those who have the money, time, and drive to complete a set-and hopefully share lots of content about it! I certainly can respect it and know all too well how fun goals make collecting. Love your stuff so far, man. Keep it coming!
@@dsage2507 That’s a great way of putting it! As content creators passionate behind our content, in some ways we are historians talking about the console and its games. Glad you’re enjoying the videos man! Means a lot!
Rip Kobe I still miss him
Still crazy that happened to him and his daughter…
Your GameCube footage is always crisp. What device are you using to capture it?
Thank you man! I’m using the EON GCHD adapter, combined with the mClassic adapter, and capturing it with an Elgato HD60. Really gives the GC games an HD quality to them 👍
Space Raiders has a PS2 version, but it’s under a different name
That’s correct! Although the PS2 version was never released in North America, making the GC version exclusive here. Thanks for checking out the video!
Di you play Gotcha Force much? because you didn't mention the fact that you can unlock and play as almost every single enemy you fight including things like a giant space ship that takes up a significant portion of the entire map and lets you shoot lasers at everyone from above. In a way the jankiness comes from the extreme amount of things you can play as, that level of character choice comes at a cost in gameplay complexity. There are like well over 100 different things to play as all with their own move-sets.
I only put about an hour into Gotcha Force, and wasn't feeling it at the time. That being said though, I do want to give it more dedicated time to complete and review properly on the channel, so maybe I'll start to see more of why this game is heavily sought after. Good to know about the compliexity of the game the more I progress in it when I revisit it. Thanks for checking out the video!
Man I forgot all about nba Courtside!!
A lot of people have! I really liked it when Nintendo dabbled in the sports scene of games! Thanks for checking out the video man!
My Wii is my GameCube, would still prefer to play it on original hardware.
Still a great way to play GC games, but I do agree there’s something more enticing to play them on an actual GC console. Thanks for checking out the video!
Just subbed u channel some nice games in that list
Thank you man! Really appreciate it, and glad you came across some games of interest in the list. 👍
Love these lists, had no idea some of these existed on the GameCube. The Yanks stopped being the Yanks for me
once Jeter left. I miss that team. I ended up picking up Darkened Skye when I heard it was some weird Skittles tie in and we’ll…yeah. The coverart is indeed gorgeous but yeah. 😂
Always wanted to get Cubivore back when I saw an ad for it on an old Game Informer Magazine but never did. Billy Hatcher is still one of my favorites on the console, it’s under appreciated.
Thank you man! I agree, the Yanks stopped being the Yanks after Jeter left. It really was the end of an era! Darkened Skye is...something lol! Cubivore is shockingly fun! Billy Hatcher is really cool too, and one I want to go back and finish soon! Glad you enjoyed the video man!
You can see the full list of releases online. It is really great to have a list of all the games. Check it out.
I bought gotcha force when it came out I love that game not sure why you didnt get the gameplay out of it that I did but I easily got 100s of hours of play out of it trying to collect everything and making the perfect team
That’s awesome to hear! I think I need to invest more time into the game. I don’t dislike it by any means, but looking at what the game is going for, I wasn’t blown away by it considering it’s current value. But, regardless, I definitely plan to do a full review on it at some point, and I have a feeling it may start clicking more for me when that time comes 👍. Thanks for checking out the video and sharing that man!
@@GameCubeGalaxy it really has a great idea behind it when you realize there is something like 100 or 200 characters you can play as. From robots ninjas superheroes military dragons and spaceships and the sized you get to play as is vast. The camera isnt the best but you get used to it and the way to unlock is so vintage gaming of that era. Play they story mode find random drops to find parts to make a character. All the different powers and weapons making most units unique like the superheroes team they can combine their power to make a special weapon. Trust me the more you play it and figure it out the more you get hooked same happened to me back then
@@dustheg Sounds good! Looking forward to giving it more time to give a more thorough review! 👍 Thanks for sharing that info!
I would have understood that "exclusive" means that it was only released on like the gamecube and not for other consoles. But hearing it came out also on PS2... I dont understand. So, it is not exclusive anymore.
Exclusives are technically based on region as well. Being during a time where games were region-locked, it wasn’t like you could easily import the PAL PS2 version of Space Raiders to play on your NTSC PS2 here back then. Since that was released exclusively on the GameCube here in North America, that was technically an exclusive for the console in that region. Hope this helps clarify it a bit!
Seamen lol
🤣
liked the vid but have to say I disagree on the idea of liking exclusives, especially as my consoles age and start to go out I just hate that gems are kinda left behind (and on top of that nintendo has never gotten to the place where they'll let us VC GC games...) There's a ton I'd love the chance to play again, but can't unless if I emulate or drag out my old tv and hook my wii or gc up to it.
Oh I hear you! My statement was more that there is something special or “feels right” about playing an exclusive on the original hardware it was designed for. However, I am ALL for GameCube games getting brought over to the Switch! I’d love to play these games handheld on there, and I’m sure would be great to experience there 👍. Glad you enjoyed the video, and thank you for checking it out!
@@GameCubeGalaxy Fair, I've moved past this myself about the only thing I NEED the original controlle rfor is n64, but I just can't make my brain wrap around trying to figure out where an emulator put all the buttons on the trident controller on a regular one @.@
also no problem I understand it's a problem for growing channels so I always try to leave a comment even when I have not too much to say as it helps your engagement numbers.
@@jacklindsey8400 It truly means a lot man! Thank you!
Cubivore looks good!
A VERY strange game, but enjoyable for sure! Thanks for checking out the video man!
Space invaders really got trashed and its fame is mainly due people repeating what the few games reviewers said back in the day. Lets be real here. If they made a 2.5d representation of the game...NO ONE was going to buy it as it was the era of creativity. And if people bought it, they loud have complained again. Its a 2d martian shooter, there is no room for improvement as it is ! I think it was a interesting and good choice that they made it the way it is. The ending is stupid and the same for the 3 characters.If they made a final boss fight on that bridge with a tank vs spaceships and show a few more cinematics, it loud have been awesome .
By the way, I think the US and probably the EU got a censored version. In the cinematic of those there are 15 sec missing of the f15s vs the big alien ship and destruction of the city. Also the mothership is removed from the intro cinematic and there is only clear sky on all scenes. Japanese version has the ship in the sky and f15 battle. Rumor was that it resembled independance day too much and were carefull not to get a lawsuit in America. Another rumor was 9.11 related. That last one doesnt make sence but dreamcast had a game with planes that aparently got canceled for that reason ( propeler arena) .Full rom did got released though.
Japanese copyes are quite expensive of this game. I will try my luck with the Korean version sincevis made in Japan. Hopefully is the japanese version under the hood and not the censored one.
That’s interesting to hear the differences between the Japanese version and US/EU version. I really enjoyed my time with this, and admired the creativity to switching up the Space Invaders formula/aesthetics. Definitely a hidden gem! Thanks again for highlighting the cinematics difference, and checking out the video!
Me recomiendan baten kaitos?
That’s one I still need to try, but heard many great things about!
Gracias por contestar, espero que lo juegues para ver tu reseña.
Awesome video. I also make videos on yt
Thank you! That’s awesome to hear also. I’ll have to check out your content. 👍
False. Darkened Skye was also released on PC. Space Raiders was also released for the PS2 and Android. Pro Rally is just MX Rider on PS2 with a different name. Billy Hatcher was also released on PC and Mac. You are way off buddy.
Darkened Skye did release on PC, but in terms of consoles, it was a console exclusive on the GameCube. Space Raiders did release on the PS2 ONLY in Europe, not in North America, so technically, it was a GameCube exclusive here in the US. This was also clearly clarified in the video. I believe you meant Big Air Freestyle (and not Pro Rally) for the MX Rider comparison, which I actually stated in the video. It’s an enhanced port, which was, again, exclusive to the GameCube. Billy Hatcher released on PC and Mac years later, but once again, was a console exclusive for the GameCube.
When discussing GameCube games on this channel, I’m discussing them in comparison to the PS2 and Xbox, the 6th-generation consoles. Exclusives to me are about console exclusivity, I personally don’t count PC/Mac and Mobile as they are their own things entirely. I hope this clarifies things a bit.
Great video. Did you get my message about discord? Or you can email me a submission. The topic is guilty pleasure game 😃
Thank you man! I didn't! I actually have my email posted on the "About" section on my channel page, so definitely go ahead and e-mail about the collab video, as I really want to take part in it! Thanks for reaching out again (and watching the video) man!
