Super Monkey Ball, GameCube
What can be said about Sega‘s fabulous Super Monkey Ball that hasn’t already been said before? It is a riot of colour and sound that has been bringing joy to games-players for over two decades now. The GameCube version was developed by Amusement Vision (an internal Sega dev team) and first came out in 2001. And it was a smash hit!
GameCube Special
The Nintendo GameCube was initially released in Japan and North America in 2001, and Europe in 2002. It is a sixth-generation video games console, with a 32-bit IBM PowerPC CPU and an ATI “Flipper” GPU.
The GameCube was praised for its controller and high-quality game library, but criticised for its lack of multimedia features, and lack of third-party support compared to its competitors (PlayStation 2 and XBox).
The Simpsons Wrestling, PlayStation
The Simpsons Wrestling is the crossover wrestling game you never wanted nor asked for, but were curious to see how it turned out. Developed by Big Ape Productions and published by Fox Interactive in 2001, it is a game that could’ve been really good fun, but instead turns out to somewhat average.
Bomberman Generation (Battle Mode), GameCube
Here’s a separate set of grabs of Bomberman Generation Battle Mode for the GameCube. The reason I think it deserves this extra set is because the Battle Mode in Bomberman Generation is arguably the best Battle Mode in any Bomberman game, and because it also has a variety of different play modes that I haven’t seen in a Bomberman game before.

Soulcalibur, Dreamcast
The Dreamcast version of Soulcalibur is an enhanced port of the 1998 arcade game by Namco. It was released worldwide in 1999 and features “ten new characters” and enhanced new graphics.
Soulcalibur, Arcade
After the arcade game, Soul Edge in 1996, and the PlayStation conversion of that game in 1998 (called “Soul Blade” in the West), came Soulcalibur in 1999. It was made available in arcades first, as a two-player cabinet, and did reasonably good business.
The basic storyline is about a group of fighters battling it out for possession of a mystical sword called “The Soul Edge“.
Soul Blade, PlayStation
Released in December 1996 in Japan, and in 1997 in North America and Europe, Soul Blade is the PlayStation port of Namco‘s Soul Edge arcade fighting game – the predecessor to the Soulcalibur series.
Soul Edge was a pioneering early attempt at using Motion Capture in a fighting game – for the realistic animation of the combatants – and it had quite an impact on fighting game fans when it was first released.
