What's the first game for Gamecube you're buying?

Just like the subject says, "what's the first game for Gamecube you're buying and why?"

Need some suggestions. Right now I'm looking at Super Monkey Ball.

When I buy a Gamecube which will not be at launch....I will purchase Rogue Squadron. Not much else I am interested in for the time being. I can guarantee you that I will own a Gamecube by the time the RE series hits the platform along with Zelda next year!!!

Perfect Dark 2 or the new Conker Game

That's when I will get a GC.

I've got Rogue Squadron, SMB, Wave Race, and Madden 2002 all preordered, and I 'd get them in that order.

I am getting Star Wars, All Star Baseball andLuigi's Mansion with my bundle from EB. Then I am getting Super Smash Bros. Melee when it comes out and I *MIGHT* pick up Super Monkey Ball. I'll probably rent it first though.

Hmm I'm not sure, maybe either Luigi or Wave Race, or maybe Monkey ball, I'll probably decide on one of those eventually and then rent the others, its tough to decide on those three they all look good to me.

Of course I'll be getting Smash Bros the day it comes out!

Its too bad they don't have tha get 2 get one free thingy anymore , unfortunately i can only afford to get one....

I'll be getting Rogue Leader and Tony Hawk 3 at launch. I'll pick up Wave Race and one other game (probably Pikmin or Madden 2002) as x-mas gifts. I will rentLuigi's Mansion and Smash Bros. to check them out first.

I plan on getting Wave Race and Super Monkey Ball at launch. My next game will probably be Extreme G3 in December.

The reviews for Super Smash Bros. will determine whether or not I am even a Gamecube owner. So if it's as good as I hope, SSMB:M will be my first Gamecube game.

Well, Rogue Leader and Super Monkey Ball are both shipping before launch, and I reserved a copy of each, so I'll have them before I even have the system. At launch, I'll be picking up Luigi's Mansion and Wave Race, and I'll also be getting Pikmin and Super Smash Bros. when they come out. I've had money set aside for all this for a while.

BTW, I had the chance to play all of these titles at the Cube Club in Philly, and I really enjoyed all of them. I love the controller, too. I've got my calendar on the wall here at work, counting down the days till the 18th. I always get obsessive when Nintendo launches a new system.

Oh, well, it was just a promotional thing that Nintendo did a few weeks ago. They took some abandoned store and converted it into a "club" with a bunch of GameCube kiosks. It's not there anymore, but it was at 425 South Street (near South and 5th, I think). You can check out www.nintendogamecube.com for some more info on the Cube Clubs, as they are going to be popping up in a few more cities over the next few weeks.
