It will undoubtebly be the best console on earth when it is realesed in japan in july.
The games list is getting bigger and bigger due to more third party games developers joining the nintendo game list.
We will at last see the return of the Final Fantasy series to a nintendo console with the announcement that Final Fantasy 10 will be released on the gamecube.
Will gamecube be the best console for RPGs?
Yes of course it will with games like Final fantasy and zelda how can it be beaten.
It also has some of the best shhot em ups around aswell with perfect dark 2
CAN THIS MACHINE BE BEATEN

That is one of the most naive comments ever. Regardless of ability I feel Gamecube will badly struggle for these reasons.
1) Sony owns the market. they have all the fans and the third party support not to mention the ability to market the psx2 like no other company.
2) Nintendo, as with the N64, are leaving the release date too late. They were lucky with N64 as the only opposition was Sony but by the time they will reach the market there will be Sega's excellent Dreamcast, Sony's psx2 which will easily dominate the market and X-Box. How much of a market do they expect to be available?
3) The disgraceful way they have abadoned N64 will have lost them a lot of support. Whilst sony continue to produce games for the psx1 Nintendo have just given up and as such let down there fans badly. A few of my friends who have always been nintendo fans are so annoyed they have given up and gone elsewhere and this won't be an isolated incident.
4) Finally Nintendo are still a kids machine. look at it with all the pretty colours and games. Nintendo have not grasped that the market has moved on. They may be experts at ripping kids off (pokemon) but that is no longer all you need to claim a slice of the market.
Wether or not the gamecube is superior to anything else it will fail because of bad marketing. The comment really is
HOW CAN THIS SYSTEM ESCAPE FAILURE?
