Sounds pretty good, then!<\/p>\n<p>Of course, it&#8217;s unlikely that we&#8217;ll see the game on the Switch unless Capcom decides to utilise Cloud technology (and we&#8217;re quite sure no one <em>truly<\/em> wants that), but the fact that a remake of what was originally a GameCube exclusive is getting such universal praise makes us all warm and fuzzy inside.<\/p>\n<p>Not only that, of course, but Nintendo&#8217;s own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/nintendo-switch\/metroid_prime_remastered\">Metroid Prime Remastered<\/a> also launched earlier this year to critical acclaim (including a score of 10\/10 from ourselves). Indeed, if you head on over to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metacritic.com\/browse\/games\/score\/metascore\/year\/all\/filtered\">Metacritic<\/a> now and check out the highest-scoring games of 2023 so far, you&#8217;ll find that two of the top three were originally GameCube games.

Looking at games published by Nintendo first, you&#8217;ve got the likes of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/paper_mario_the_thousand-year_door\">Paper Mario: Thousand-Year Door<\/a>, a game that is <em>still<\/em> to this day stuck on the GameCube, alongside <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/pikmin\">Pikmin<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/mario_kart_double_dash\">Mario Kart: Double Dash!!<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/donkey_konga\">Donkey Konga<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/f_zero_gx\">F-Zero GX<\/a>, and the original <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/animal_crossing\">Animal Crossing<\/a>. Heck, we reckon most would argue that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/super_mario_sunshine\">Super Mario Sunshine<\/a> is probably the one 3D Mario adventure that&#8217;s perhaps <em>begging<\/em> to be remade with more modern controls. We hate to state the obvious, too, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/metroid_prime_2_echoes\">Metroid Prime 2: Echoes<\/a> absolutely needs to join its older sibling on the Switch.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"gallery\">\n<div class=\"cols\">\n<div class=\"col\"><a title=\"F-Zero GX\" class=\"scanlines\" href=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/e206a15d0e2b8\/f-zero-gx.large.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCA0NDUgMjUwIj48L3N2Zz4=\" width=\"445\" height=\"250\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/e206a15d0e2b8\/f-zero-gx.445x.jpg\" alt=\"F-Zero GX\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"col\"><a title=\"Mario Sunshine\" class=\"scanlines scanlines\" href=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/b1c23ce99972e\/mario-sunshine.large.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHZpZXdCb3g9IjAgMCA0NDUgMjUwIj48L3N2Zz4=\" width=\"445\" height=\"250\" data-original=\"https:\/\/images.nintendolife.com\/b1c23ce99972e\/mario-sunshine.445x.jpg\" alt=\"Mario Sunshine\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"caption\"><em class=\"credit\">Images: Nintendo<\/em><\/figcaption><\/aside>\n<p>Moving onto third-party games, the most obvious one for us would probably be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/eternal_darkness_sanitys_requiem\">Eternal Darkness<\/a>. While Silicon Knights&#8217; survival horror was groundbreaking at the time, it admittedly hasn&#8217;t aged all that well, particularly when you compare it directly with Capcom&#8217;s own remake of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/resident_evil\">Resident Evil<\/a>. Speaking of which, mind you, with Resident Evil 2, 3, and 4 all now sharing the same visual style and branding, we reckon Capcom could perhaps go back and remake the first game <em>again<\/em>. What do you think, are you up for &#8216;reREmake&#8217;?<\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ve also got games like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/metal_gear_solid_the_twin_snakes\">Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes<\/a> (though lord knows what Konami&#8217;s plan with that franchise is), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/star_wars_rogue_squadron_ii_rogue_leader\">Star Wars Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/gamecube\/skies_of_arcadia_legends\">Skies of Arcadia Legends<\/a> (which yes, we know was originally a Dreamcast game, but just go with us \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/features\/soapbox-segas-greatest-rpg-is-20-years-old-and-long-overdue-a-remaster\">we have our reasons for wanting to see it again<\/a>), all of which are well deserving of a new lick of paint and some TLC.<\/p>\n<p>Point is, there are a <em>lot<\/em> of great GameCube games that deserve to get the remake treatment (and if not a remake, then a solid remaster), just like Resident Evil 4.
