Gamers.com's 10 Best Gamecube games of 2002
10 Best games of the rest of the year, just like the PS2 list they did a while back. ED is on it for some reason. They say it's "because they like it so much." I say it's because they couldn't come up with 10 games coming out before years end that looked great. I can't fault them there, I'd be hard pressed to come up with 10 games on all 3 systems combined that I'm really looking forward too.
10. Wario World
9. Turok: Evolution
8. Super Monkey Ball 2
7. Animal Crossing
6. Eternal Darkness
5. Star Fox Adventures: Dinosaur Planet
4. Phantasy Star Online Version 2
3. Resident Evil 0
2. Metroid Prime
1. Super Mario Sunshine
10. Wario World
9. Turok: Evolution
8. Super Monkey Ball 2
7. Animal Crossing
6. Eternal Darkness
5. Star Fox Adventures: Dinosaur Planet
4. Phantasy Star Online Version 2
3. Resident Evil 0
2. Metroid Prime
1. Super Mario Sunshine

Animal Crossing has old NES games included, but the main game is different. I think you unlock the old NES games as rewards are something, I will need to go find a preview for it.

Don't forget, if I remember correctly, you will be able to download these NES games to your GBA!

At the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in Los Angeles, Nintendo is showcasing several innovative games that further expand connectivity, starting with the revolutionary Animal Crossing™, a community building adventure. This new game extends game fun from NINTENDO GAMECUBE to Game Boy Advance, opening new worlds, and also links it to trading cards with the introduction of the e-Reader. Players can download full classic NES games to the Game Boy Advance for hand-held fun on the go, and swipe trading cards through the e-Reader, which attaches to the Game Boy Advance to transport messages from the characters, game items and even music.

The same process of saving a mini-game into memory on the GBA will also let you download a virtual pet into the GBA and kind of "level" him so he produces better items and stuff for you - then you connect to your game in the GC and when you travel to the island to talk with this creature he will be improved based upon the "levels" you got him in the GBA mini-game.
I'm really really looking forward to Animal Crossing and have been following all the previews and such on the process of bringing it to the states - honestly i'm suprised it is coming at all since it appears to be such a niche market japanese style game. A sign of how stoked for this i am is that i'm putting off Mario Sunchine so i can pick up Animal Crossing the next week and save my little free time for that game instead.

Supposedly (and i never looked at the manual so i don't know how to do this) there is a way to put the GBA into sleep mode so it shuts off the screen but doesn't turn completely off.
