"Robotech Battlecry" remains an absolute luxury on the system's library. "Ultimate Muscle", well...that game simply never gets old!

It’s really cool to see how the GameCube captures the nostalgia of anime from the 90s and early 2000s! I have fond memories of watching anime and other cartoons on both Fox Kids and Tonnami. I remember playing the GameCube demo for Ultimate Muscle at Walmart too. Great times indeed!!!

Great Video as always. Over 20 years later and I'm still finding out about Gamecube games I've never heard of. 👍

Digimon Battle Stadium Or Digimon rumble Arena 2 and Budokai 2 and Ultimate muscle are amongst the best Anime base games for the cube! Great video.

The best part about reliving my childhood through your videos is the additional memories that come with it. I tried most of these games as a kid thanks to blockbuster and remember the joy of wondering around the isles with my friend for hours looking for games to rent. Thank you for the nostalgia trip again!

Thanks you for all your Videos about GameCube Games! I almost watched them all, only the Japan-Exclusives are missing :3 They will be my next stop right away. After that, i most likely saw everything GameCube has to offer... Found a lot of stuff thanks to you, that i still have to add to my collection!

I had budokai on the ps2 and gamecube. I loved the music in that game.

Good video. It's never gets old seeing how much better Dragon Ball Z Budokai looks on the GameCube than the PS2. Zoids Battle Legends runs really well on Dolphin with decent hardware.

I'm not huge into anime, so I barely knew any of them mentioned in this video! But based on the gameplay footage, I will add 2 to the wishlist: Digimon 4 and Robotech Battlecry as both look fun! You're making me spend money again 🤣! Great video and keep up the good work!

Sagas hold a special place in my heart to me it was ahead of its time but I understand why some did not like it

I agree with you. DBZ budokai 3 is an amazing game. Too bad it wasnt released on the gamecube. I still play it to this day on the ps2/ps3

wow, this is an oddly specific video I never knew I needed, thank you.

its always good when you post a video

Another hit, love the gamecube library and your channel's content on it here for more.

ULTIMATE MUSCLE! Such a fun game! Only downside is no training mode you just gotta figure it out yourself lol

Great video , I like the look of Robotech battlecry might have to get this in the near future 👍

Keep up the great work dude! I'm not super into anime, but I loved Digimon growing up. Digimon World 4 was one I spent hours on and yeah I totally remember it being so difficult at times. I might have to go back and play through that soon.

Awesome topic and video! I feel like this generation of gaming was one of the best for Anime!

Digimon World 4 is fun to play co-op. I need to try and get back to it and finish it up. Battle cry is tough at times but can be a lot of fun. I wish we got more Robotech games. Saving the best for last. Ultimate Muscle is a really fun game. The missus is dangerous with random button presses. Welcome to the fox box.

Another fantastic episode, man the holofoil box art for Budokai 2 is so awesome. It's just a shame it's one of those rare GC games that can't be forced to run in 480p. Digimon World 4 looks like such a huge departure from the first three entries on the PS1 but I cannot deny my love for more Digimon. It wasn't till Cyber Sleuth came out and gave me the kind of game I always wanted from that franchise. I came so close to buying Ultimate Muscle a couple of years ago but the price kept me from going there. Awesome video once again Marcello! Looking forward to seeing you tackle this topic again!

Oh, I love Rave Master. I remember it.

Wow this video is amazing! My favorite anime games on GC gotta be..Digimon Rumble Arena 2, Naruto Clash of ninja 2, and Zatch Bell the Mamodo Battles. Let’s get it!

I've never seen Dragon Ball Z but I'd like to give it a shot sometime. There are so many games for the franchise. Never heard of Medabots... too bad it's dull and dumbed down, I think the premise could be fun. Power Stone is a lot of fun, so Rave Master could be one that I'd enjoy. There's a lot of games I've never heard of on this list. Anime is an entirely different world that I don't have a lot of experience in other than Pokemon.

Watching this again! Looking back at this, the Marvel, DC and Star Wars videos, as much of a bad reputation licensed games usually get (Either because developers/publishers just yank something out of their butts and hoping the company of the IP is satisfied to go "Good enough..." or being rushed to release to tie-in with a debut of a theatrical movie, new series/season, toy line, home video release or holiday season leading to flaws like inconsistent difficulties, underdeveloped aspects, cut content and bugs or limitations of the IPs themselves!), they really give you the chance to be those worlds' characters, relive moments and participate movie and TV events and even make new stories (Sometimes expand the worlds like Star Wars pre-Disney or adding in villains that never appeared in the Raimi Spidey trilogy) exclusive to these games. And for fighting, FPS and sports games, dream matches! Sometimes even the unthinkable like Capcom's crossovers with Marvel and Tatsunoko, Disney and Square's Kingdom Hearts and Bandai's Super Robot Wars. Not only that, but also gives devs some experience and get their names out there. Heavy Iron is known to be the kings of SpongeBob and Pixar games. Avalanche Software developed a decent track record with their ports of various Midway games and what they made with Nickelodeon and Disney and go on to make Hogwarts Legacy. There's also Traveler's Tales with the treasure trove of Lego games! Some of these games sold well causing the company of an IP and the publisher to greenlit a follow-up games or rehired for another game like what happened with Rainbow Studios making Cars Maternational after the original Cars did well and Heavy Iron with SpongeBob Movie after BFBB. Obvious series like Dragon Ball Z Budokai (RIP Toriyama) and both Naruto Clash of Ninja and Ultimate Ninja ended up getting sequels and successor series such as Budokai Tenkaichi and Ultimate Ninja Storm respectively. I know not every game is a winner, but they can be dreams come true from a diehard fans point of view. Of course this is a matter of opinion. Can't wait on potential Disney, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network and DreamWorks episodes to go along with a part 2 of anime games!

Love me some Robotech Battlecry!

Awesome video man! I will avoid Sagas now haha. Can't wait for part 2!

I'm genuinely shocked I never played the DBZ games from this era. I played a bunch of Japan only SNES titles, including some fan translations back in the day, but never these & have since played some of the newer titles. I'd love to go back to play them, especially for fun retro weekends. However I've got so many "to be played" games at this point that I think I need to retire just to make a dent.

nice video, i will buy rave master. i know many gamecube games but this one i have never seen. thank you

I remember buying robotech for dirt cheap back in the day since the gamecube was on its way out because of the wii launch and it's pretty fun and Ultimate Muscle is pure insanity especially when you do a tag team super it still amuses me to this day.

Love the DBZ Budokai and Digimon World games. Never played any on the GameCube.

Bro, I need to get/play Rave Master at some point as I heard really great things about that one but what I should mention is that unlike Movie Licensed games, a lot of the Anime based games are really good even though we have to accept that they are licensed games. Still some awesome games that I’m hoping to check out soon. Either way Great Episode as always GameCube Galaxy. Also Elie from Rave Master is so adorable. Like OMG: she’s so cute.

Ultimate Muscle was amazing I do wish they released the sequel on GameCube or more in the west but hey the GameCube and Ps2 ones are great and I recommend them if u like wrestling games or the anime

Robotech looks great! I think I heard about it before, but I've never seen it. I need to find it. And for some reason, Dragon Ball Z Sagas has my interest. 🤣 I like terrible games. Digimon World 4 looks interesting. I will have to keep an eye out for all of these!

Unpopular opinion: I do enjoy Dragon Ball Z Sagas, but I think Rugrats: Royal Ransom, Tak and the Power of Juju trilogy, Chicken Little and Meet the Robinsons are the more better Avalanche Software-developed GameCube games. I think most of their track-record are porting Midway games to PS1, N64 and Dreamcast and making games based off Disney properties. Hopefully you cover Naruto, Zatchbell and some Japanese exclusive games. Maybe throw in some GBA anime titles as well.

I've played a few of these, budokai 1, 2, rumble arena, and rave master I think rave master is interesting though half cooked, it's a bit too easy to get a useless weapon if yours doesn't spawn right and like... the hammer is alright, but if you get musica's silver, for him it's a spear, for you it's basically just a lump. did like in budokai 2 where you got some odd fusions that I wish had returned in 3, I just find 2's story mode a bit too expansive to go through so I never unlocked most things.

So living in the netherlands we never did get sagas here so i imported it not my best import haha.

There's MANY more lol

Forgot about gundam

What about Naruto clash of ninja, and bleach?

Sagas is awful
