Remember the GameCube? We do. We remember going to the store the day it came out and buying one. We remember picking up the goofy, purple controller and being like... man, this is it. And we remember trying to decide which launch title to get. Would we go with a game about a monkey in a ball, a war in the stars, or a plumber fighting ghosts? If you went with the last one, this is what you got...

Want to hang out with GamesRadar's editors while taking a look at retro games, new releases, and totally random experiences? RadarPlays is for you. Mondays we'll be checking out blasts from the past on RadarPlays Retro, Wednesdays we change things up to whatever we feel like playing with RadarPlays Shuffle, and Friday is packed with the strangest titles you’ve never (hopefully) heard of in RadarPlays Freaky. We'll also release RadarPlays for all the new releases, so be sure to check back!
