I will constantly say it: the Gamecube is the most underrated console of all time. The library has so much diversity and uniqueness all of which executed perfectly. The best entries of so many game series were on that wonderful little (indigo) cube. It deserved higher sales numbers.
@mrgamegod6 ай бұрын
I wouldn't say it is underrated because the Cube is being mentioned as one of the greatest consoles from Nintendo by nearly everyone. For me clearly the Dreamcast is the most underrated console ever. Runner up would be the PSP.

Wii U
@koolaid336 ай бұрын
Not even close in my eyes. The Sega Dreamcast has a library of almost no sleepers, every title is near perfection if not perfect in everything it needed to be. From Sonic Adventure to the obscurer titles like Blue Stinger or AeroWings, it was all great yet the console was massively overshadowed by the GameCube, Xbox & PS2. Even though it innovated so much, being the first console with built-in internet capabilities, having a memory card that also acted as it's own console, & having other accessories like the DreamEye that went on to inspire other companies like Sony's PlayStation EyeToy, it was still left in the dust. Funniest part is that it could guaranteed compete, with game like SoulCalibur & Resident Evil - Code: Veronica being extremely graphically intensive & considered to play best on Dreamcast out of every 6th gen console, meaning it stood a chance but it wasn't given that opportunity by fans.

@@everygamersdream72 I think Wii U was underrated for its time, but not anymore. The thing is, you can pretty much play every single great title for it on one convenient console that also has a bunch of other games, the Switch. Wii U walked so the Switch could run.

@@mrgamegod I'd say the Cube is more underrated than the Dreamcast. The Gamecube in recent years has finally begun to get its flowers whereas the DC has generally regarded in high praise from its release date. Maybe the console is somewhat overlooked but thoae who remember it, whether hardcore or casual fans, don't really have anything bad to say about it.

I think the WiiU doesn't get much credit like the gamecube does. Sometimes I think that whenever NIntendo systems don't sell well, they have a very passionate following for those who did purchase their systems (N64, GCN, WiiU).

Prime 2 in the EU had 60Hz display as a requirement. For ref, mains power in Europe runs at 50Hz unlike the US, so having a TV that would do 60Hz refresh rate was relatively unusual. I love that game but it certainly had an afterthought vibe.
