While NES and SNES are widely considered to be two of the best consoles of all-time, my personal favorite just might be the Nintendo GameCube. The system boasted a plethora of AAA Nintendo titles such as Metroid Prime, Eternal Darkness, and Mario Kart: Double Dash!! It was also home to one of the best third party line-ups that a Nintendo system has ever seen. With Nintendojo honoring third party games this week, we’ve listed off the top 10 third party titles on GameCube! As an added bonus, we’ll also take a look at the legacy each title has left behind on Nintendo’s various consoles and handhelds.

    Glad to see Super Monkey Ball so high on the list. (Although I prefer the second one) It’s a shame that Amusement Vision isn’t around anymore, because I really enjoyed what they were doing on the GameCube.

    Great list. All are worthy of inclusion. I’m particularly glad to see Skies of Arcadia Legends get some love; it’s a very good RPG and filled a massive hole in the Cube library at the time of its release.

    I have long thought Baten Kaitos Origins to be the best of the Cube RPGs — better than Symphonia, better than Arcadia. It gets little love because it was released so late and sold in very few quantities. Even in my own list I left it off, mostly because Symphonia was a more groundbreaking and important RPG, and because its combat was pure awesome.
