I'd go out and buy a Gamecube right now if Nintendo...

Would develop an RPG featuring all (or most of its) venerable characters.

Think of it like Kingdom Hearts in the Nintendo universe. The main character goes around and visits various planets/stages/worlds of the various Nintendo characters.

Like Mario RPG, the worlds can be expanded with a certain degree of creative license, as opposed to just limiting Donkey Kong to the jungle or Mario to a pipe land.

This idea, unfortunately, can come off as very lame if it’s not executed properly. However Nintendo has a rich cast of characters to call on (this has always been Nintendo’s trump card) and Gamecube could use a strong, console-specific RPG.

Super Smash Brothers is so much fun because of the compilation of various characters. Combine this aspect with a strong storyline and RPG battle system, and you’ve got a real winner.

Just my two cents…

I’ve always dreamed of a game that is a mix between Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Shogun:Total War, and Street Fighter. The over all and basic building and strategy would be all menu based like Romance, the battles would be fought like in Total War, and the personal combats would be fought Street Fighter style.

I think i’ll go out and buy a game cube, since they are only 99 bucks now. But still thats a lot of money.

Nintendo’s sales quatrupled because of that.

Because of the price?

There are a few good games out of the GC, but I’m still waiting for MGS: Twin Snakes and FF:CC to be released.:too bad;

HA HA! N00B! Points Yeah, I guess I would too, I guess…

8

Don’t be a retard yosh -_-;

9

I am getting a gamecube soon.

Reason: Zelda Wind Waker, Metroid Prime and FF:CC

10

That would be an awesome game, but nintendo being nintendo, it would take , like, 10 years to develope…

Cursed “perfection disease”!

11

I’ve already got enough reasons to wish I had a gamecube! You don’t need to add MORE! :wink:

12

Meh. First priority for me is FFTA.

Then we’ll talk the next time I get money.

<img src=“http://www.rpgclassics.com/staff/tenchimaru/td.gif”> Err, Wind Waker is definately not worth purchasing a console for. It’s kinda short and with little replay value except to complete the Nintendo Gallery :stuck_out_tongue:

15

F Zero GX is very neat, so’s SSBM. Don’t leave those out. Z WW is neat, but its not as neat as Prime (or its upcoming sequel x_X).

Any other good games?

<img src=“http://www.rpgclassics.com/staff/tenchimaru/td.gif”> Prime is awesome, nice length and has replay value. I still haven’t beat it, though ^^;

And yeah, there are tons of good titles, although I’ll let someone else tell them since I lent out most of my collection, so I can’t look at my reference material.

I don’t know for Nintendo, but I think Square and Disney made a crossover some time ago, I don’t remember for which console…

Do you mean Kingdom Hearts? And Nintendo and Square partnered for Super Mario RPG, which is incredibly fun to me. :D~~
