GameCube
Luigi's Mansion

Wave Race: Blue Storm


 * A rollercoaster ride of aquatic action. Superb, and unlikely to be bettered...Ever.

Pikmin


 * Did you really expect Mr Miyamoto to come up with something less than brilliant?

Super Monkey Ball


 * This is the business. If you can only afford one game, this is the one to get hold of!
