I like all the zelda games which has every come out but I dopn't want too buy the gamecube just for one game, true theres lots of games for the gamecube but i find most of them are aim at 3-12 yeare olds. Should i buy a gamecube for zelda or not. If you think there are any good games other then zelda coming out , want too tell me what there are. Thxs.

What a terribly tedious collection he would have...

GameCube's are cheap man, you'll buy more then oen game you know it. But if you actually really think you'll only have one game for it and your short on cash try and forget about playing Zelda.

Just because the colour schemes consist of mostly bright primary colours, it doesn't mean they're aimed at 3 - 12 year olds.
Super Monkey Ball (2) is genius, as are most of the exclusive games.

"are aim at 3-12 yeare olds. "

well thats if you stop looking at the 3-12 years olds section!
games like:

Hitman 2
(killing + Fibre wire= cant go wrong)

Resi
(zero + 4 + remake) that if your not too scared :P *cough* Phillip

Tony Hawks (
hm.. 3 year old skaters.. i can just see it)

Metroid Prime
(yeah "blood" guts and evil cloak priates with giant blades will really help them with their ABCs/ Sats whatever)

Eternal Darkness
This game is just sick! opens a can of whoop

Iss2
Class footy, shame most three year olds cant walk

Timesplitters
"slightly kiddy" but class game for young or old


=======
maybe if you look down the shop a little bit more, you might see others games than Scooby Doo Ghost Chase + Mary Kate and Ashley and Barbie Adventure or whatever. Zelda alone is quite worth getting the console alone, with a track record of Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Link to the Past, oracle of Seasons + Ages, Four Swords and the original Legend of Zelda on the nes. How COULD you go wrong?

BTW most 3 year olds can barely even talk!

Anyone who says the Gamecube is just for kids are ignorant.

The last person I met who said the GC was for kids struggled to play Super Mario Sunshine. He said it was "a stupid kids game anyway."

Then went back home to playe "proper games" like The Getaway, and GTA: Vice City.

Gamecube is a must get with games like Zelda and Mario Kart coming out. There are also going to be other brilliant games like Mario 128 and pikmin 2 coming out, and there are sure to be others that nobody has heard of yet.


Great games out at the moment:

Metroid Prime
Super Monkey Ball 1 and 2
Super Mario Sunshine
Super Smash Bros Melee
Timesplitters 2
Eternal Darkness
Sonic Mega Collection

in my opinion the sonic mega collection sucked. I do love gamecube though.
