Chao's top five favorite:
Nintendo Gamecube was a success in 2000's. It was sold to millions worldwide and was just a gamecube that was completely indestructible (shown in following videos such as these)

Back as a little girl when Sega was discontinued (age 2-4? :/) , I kinda didn't play game that much for a long time since then. I received my very own gamecube in around the age of 6 or 7 (which means around a decade ago) and guess what? My gamecube still works and is still running, so I sometimes play it and try beating some games that I never finished, and most likely fail. But for as long as I live, the gamecube would always be part of my childhood treasure. So, out of all the tons of gamecube games I've played, I decided to choose my top five Nintendo Gamecube games that I loved as a child and still touches my heart to this very day.
5.) Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg
Back when Blockbuster was around, before Netflix dominated over it, I finished playing one of the gamecube games and decided to rent another one to play. It took me a while to find something that might interest me and I decided to go for this game. Thankfully, it was REALLY good, despite the fact that I'm into raising stuff such as hatching eggs and making animal friends as your companion. In fact, I was SO into it that one day, I was grounded for something and was banned from playing it, but decided to ignore it and keep on playing it. Yep...I was quite a bad girl back then. XD
Sadly, I couldn't get a chance to finish this game due to the rental deadline and has never played again since then. The only negative review I can give to it is now that I look back at the game, some of them really make sense. Like in the beginning of the game, you would see how the characters don't actually talk and make weird sound like how Billy's sound of his squawks makes him look like that he thinks he's a chicken. But the worst is when you have to follow people's gestures to see what the story is trying to tell us without character voices which they do pretty bad in some parts. Especially when we see Billy gets to his friends at a late time and just gives him that weird close up smile like while Billy looks anxious about it.
Okay? As a little girl, I was (well actually) a visual learner who usually look at picture rather than listening or reading something of what is going on. But this? This has pretty much got to be a pretty bad gesturing story line. Were they planning on bullying him, pulling a prank him...or something worse?
But let me stop with the negative review so I can end this off quick. As weird as this game is, I would actually do anything to finish playing the game. Yeah...that's pretty all I can say about it, I guess... :/
This was my very first gamecube game my parents gave me for my new Nintendo Gamecube alongside with Star Wars (In which horribly terrible with) and I just remember how much I use to play this game alot before getting more games. Despite the fact that I loved this game, I was ALWAYS horrible with the bosses. What you do when fighting these bosses is that you have to press the button as fast as you could to fill the bar before pressing the following buttons that they show you in order to take damages from them. And as a 6 or 7 years, my thumbs weren't strong enough to press the button that fast, so I would always call my parents to help me beat them and let me just tell that I would make them torture alot in exhaustion, which I found it a funny memory. But by the time I played it again at the age of 15 or 16, I got to beat the whole entire game without my parent's help (which the final boss REALLY exhausted my thumb out in the end). Overall, the background was amazing, the enemies were amazing, and the story line was interesting. There's nothing really bad I can say of how memorable this game actually is.
Ok, usually I grew into this game while playing it with my little cousin, rented it on blockbuster before finally buying it. And ofcourse, you can probably tell why I love this game since I'm a sonic fan. Actually, there's to it than that. Similiar to "Sonic Adventure Battle 2" it has good storylines, you can play several character such as Amy, Big, and Gamma and has a great chao world which in fact has a better background than the one in SAB2. Though it DID take quite a while to finish it since it took me a while to finally buy it. The only problem I can say to it is a strange quality, which I really dont mind it that much since this is a really old game, but I always feel the facial expression can be a little off. Heck, look at Sonic's expression in the very beginning of Sonic's story when Tail shows him a chaos emerald and I promise you that you will laugh so hard when you see it. Speed was also a little too slow and it can be quite annoying when traveling one place to another. The chao races were also pretty annoying back then since I am so use to the chao races in SAB2 and you can only feed animals to the chao. But, yeah, I would still give this a four out five if I can rate this game.
2.) Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness
At first, I was going to put this as my #3 list when I noticed how much I usually played this game more and known it longer than Sonic XD. Although it's not my most favorite Pokemon game of all time, at least it voted ONE of the most. The storyline is amazing, the effect are fantastic, the character are intesting. HECK! Even the background music are something that might never get out of your head! And I think one I most favorite background music is the Cipher Battle soundtrack and back when I was little, I would make up the lyrics while battling that kind of didn't make NO sense out all! XD
But...I never got a chance to beat it for some odd reason. Possibly because the problem with this game is that it can only be saved by only one slot space in the memory card. So I would usually delete this game all the time so I can save another game. I am planning on trying to finish it, but for now, I'll just leave it for when I'm interested in playing it again.

Now it's that you all been waiting for. This game has been around me since I was eight years old. In fact, I never even KNEW it existed until my dad mentioned it to me on the phone when he was trying to give me a gift for my birthday or good grades. When he mentioning the games that his job had for me to choose and when he mentioned this game, It looked like it would an ok game, so I was just like, "Ok, sure. I'll have that game, I guess."
Never did I knew that this random game that I chose several minutes into playing it, would be the one of my most important childhood treasure. I want to thank my dad SO much for buying me this game AND to myself for making one of the most greatest decision I have ever made in my entire life. Ladies and gentleman, my beloved fandom and friends, I give to you my #1 Nintendo Gamecube game and my most favorite video in my entire life. This is...
1.) Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
This game....this...wonderful and amazing game means SO much to me than what some of you think. This game is the REAL main reason why I am a big Sonic fan AND a gamer. If I never chose that game, I don't know where I would be and what I would be typing now. In fact, I love that game SO much, that I always wish that Sonic Team can continue making something related this like Chao World for example. But before I can talk about that, let me talk about the stages and story first. The storyline is unforgettable. The lines are unforgettable. The background are unforgettable. Even the SONGS are unforgettable. EVERYTHING about this game...is just so memorable to even barely forget. And probably one of the best known song AND stage HAS to be "City Escape".
City Escape City Escape CITY ESCAPE! Goodness gracious, I love love LOVE this stage. Even when it is even mentioned, the only reaction I could give a squeal of happiness. The song "Escape the City" is just so memorable, I remember almost EVERY SINGLE lyrics to the song and even wouldn't help but sing along to it when this song is played.
Oh and by the way, if you guys are wondering what I picture the sonic characters to look like, well....here it is. This is how they look like, what they sound like, this is the true form of the sonic characters to me. NOT the 1991 game, NOT Sonic generation, NOT Sonic 06. THIS is what I'm talking about!
Not only that, but one of the most powerful part of this game has to be CHAO WORLD! I swear by golly that if Sonic Team even makes another Chao World game again, I would even try to get it for a million dollars. You can raise it, you can make good glitches of it, you can evolve it whatever you want it to be, the race is longer and more detail! I LOVE it! THIS is where exactly where my nickname, Chaoflaka, came from. I have used the name "Chao" in almost every single account dedicated to my most favorite game ever.
It is a game that will ALWAYS be in my heart and who knows? I would probably still keep this game if I ever have grandchildren! X3
-------------------------------------------------
So that was it. That was ALL my top 5 favorite Nintendo Gamecube in my life. Reblog on what you think about it and you can even send me YOUR top 5 favorite if you grew up with the gamecube. Well, that's all for today, guy.
