I prefer Gamcube. |

Gotta go with Xbox. Even though I like the aesthetics of the GameCube better, I've never really been a fan of Nintendo's game library. |

I'd say Gamecube probably because of the stuff with it. I know that Xbox has better multiplats in most cases and a better sound system and the hard drive. However, I feel like the Gamecube has a bit of a more diverse library of exclusive games compared to the xbox, and with optimal accessories like the gamecube, it can double as the perfect way to play all Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance games on your TV in 480p( or 480i w/o component), which I feel is something that can't be overlooked given the amount of titles available. I also really like the controller for the Gamecube over the Xbox controller layout, and most of the multiplats I've found for gamecube are mostly good so far. Online support for gamecube is pretty bad compared to the xbox, but there are ways to still play a few games like Phantasy Star Online Episodes 1+II online thanks to private servers. The graphics are pretty good for a 1999 chipset design and its got very fast loading times compared to xbox(+ps2)due to the mini-dvd discs( limited data is a downer) and design. So I'd think I've give Gamecube a slight edge over the Xbox, and I enjoy picking up stuff for both( even if most of the xbox titles I find in the wild are usually sports games). |

If you happened to have a Wii and an Xbox 360, I've looked up the backwards compatibility of the 360 before, and it looks like it has quite a lot of issues with a whole heap of games. An original Xbox might be a more worthwhile investment. On the other hand, I'm not aware of too many Wii backward compatibility issues, no Game Boy Player I suppose |

I'm definitely on the Gamecube side, there's a reason why I don't own any Xbox system at all haha. The exclusives appeal to me a LOT more, and for me the gamecube controller is the best controller to have blessed earth. |
