In this world, you're either a lvl 1 crook or a lvl 35 boss

@JackEatsSparrows Political details aside, politicians are the only ones I can think of who can refuse to get their job done and consider it somehow doing their job. Could you imagine if one day you just said, "naw screw it, I refuse to do this" Even with your seemingly good position, do you think you could just not do your job for 2 weeks and screw over countless people depending on your job getting done, and not get in trouble for it? And even still get paid! I can't think of any job aside from being a politician in America where you can just not work and keep your job like this.

I might get annoyed at my co-workers on occasion when they don't tell me when a schedule change, or wont tell me what they want from me. But overall my job is really solid. So long as I show up and do a minimum and don't cause trouble, the worst I have to worry about is a talk down from my supervisor. But I can promise you, if I didn't do my job for 2 weeks, I'd be looking for another job!

@Heavyarms55 Trust me: it's not just politicians in America. It's politicians full stop. Mind you: nothing as severe as in the States, but similar events and mishaps have most certainly occurred in various countries and parts of the world.

@Heavyarms55 For real. And you’re right, you can completely remove any political belief from it and still agree that getting paid to not work is ludicrous. And to think that being a member of Congress was originally intended to only compensate as if it were a part time job.
I’ve gotta say, all the medleys in smash make a perfect work playlist.

I forget which state it is...Wyoming maybe? But there's a state where at least some government offices are or were strictly volunteer jobs. I'm not saying all politicians are useless, but the ones who are only in it for the money disgust me. You should worry about doing things for the betterment of the people, not "Sure, I'll do it, but what's in it for me?"

This from someone whose state is a mess politically.

I also feel that some jobs in general should have more pay to them and some less, but that's a rabbit hole that I don't think would be wise to get into here.

Actually looking forward for Extra Kirby's Epic Yarn. Though you can't all die at all (it feels a bit like a Lego title), I actually enjoyed it. It was a relaxing title with a unique aesthetic and nice soundtrack.
Also, the minigames will probably be very fun

@Vinny I forgot that was even a thing 😂. Just goes to show that Nintendo is trying to distance itself from 3DS by not featuring it that much.

Also, the only things that exist in this world are Lvl. 99 Boss and Lvl. 1 Crook. The Lvl. 35 Boss is always wiped out first.

I just wondering about this Gamecube game.

Is it good enough for 3D Cartoonish Action games with Disney franchises ?

@Anti-Matter From the reviews I’ve seen, it’s not a great game. Instead, I would recommend Quack Attack/Goin’ Quackers, another Donald Duck game on GCN. I have very fond memories of that one.

@GyroZeppeli
I have watched the Quack Attack from Youtube immediatey after you mentioned it, but.....
Quack Attack was too similar like Crash Bandicoot.
And i didn't really like with the 3D rendering from Quack Attack.

I have chosen Crash Bandicoot Wrath of Cortex Gamecube version as my upcoming Gamecube games to be purchased, but when i saw Quack Attack, i didn't feel impressed as much as PK out of the Shadows (PK was running on 60 fps with Cell shaded style was impressed me).

Well, i guess i will choose PK as my Finale Gamecube games to be added (12th). For Gamecube, i opened the quota until 12 USA games by Maximum since i knew Gamecube didn't have a lot of good game choices as many as PS2 / Wii have.

There’s always Billy Hatcher....

@Blitzenexx I agree. And I’ll shout into the rabbit hole. Why do first responders get paid less than a public official. You don’t need a condo in DC if your home state is not Virginia or Maryland. Stay at a friggin Spring Hill suites or days inn like your constituents.

@ReaderRagfihs
LOL
I'm not a fan of Spongebob games.

The reasons i limited the quota of Gamecube games (until 12 as Maximum) due for these reasons :
1. I have observed so many times both from playasia and gamefaqs to find decent Gamecube games for me, and it was so hard for me to be impressed by the titles on Gamecubes. I mean, i didn't impressed by the majority of 3rd / 1st party games on Gamecube.

2. There were some Gamecube games that i have ever experienced on PS2 version (Harvest Moon a Wonderful life) and i don't think i want to replay again on both PS2 / Gamecube due to mediocre quality after i have ever finished the PS2 version long time ago.

3. I choose some 3rd party games from PS2 version for the Gamecube version (The Sims, Kao the Kangaroo Round 2, The Sims Bustin' Out, Hello Kitty Roller Rescue, Crash Bandicoot Wrath of Cortex, PK Out of the Shadows) due to I owned USA Wii, so i used the BC of Wii to play Gamecube games. And those 3rd party titles were the Only games that i thought they were quite good / decent enough for me.

After my long deliberation, i think these are my choosen Gamecube games based on their categories :
(1st Party)
1. Paper Mario The Thousand Years Door
2. Super Mario Sunshine
3. Pokemon Channel
(3rd Party Gamecube exclusives)
4. Harvest Moon Magical Melody
5. Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg
6. Bomberman Generation
(3rd Party games Multi platform / also on PS2)
7. The Sims Bustin' Out
8. The Sims
9. Kao the Kangaroo Round 2
10. Crash Bandicoot Wrath of Cortex
11. Hello Kitty Roller Rescue
12. PK Out of the Shadows

Well, i think i'm enough with Top 12 USA Gamecube games that i have chosen carefully.

Btw, for Japanese Gamecube games, i just only interested with ONE game only.
It was Muscle Champion Kinnikuto Kessen.

Ya know what's really good on Gamecube? Eternal Darkness....
Just kidding @Anti-Matter, you wouldn't like it at all. Like watching a horror movie that won't turn off.

@JackEatsSparrows: Agreed! I also think most teaching positions that are below college level deserve more compensation as well. What some teachers have to put up with, particularly with many districts across the country cutting costs, is beyond insane.

Conversely, while I believe that you should be well-compensated for something that you're very good at, I feel like a lot of professional athletes are overpaid.

@Anti-Matter what about Wario world. Mario kart double dash. Mario golf. Super monkey ball. And everyone’s favourite crazy taxi

We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.

Anti-Matter

@1UP_MARIO
I didn't impressed with these games :
Wario world
Mario kart double dash
Mario golf
Super monkey ball
Crazy taxi

Wario ? Nah....
Double Dash ? It's still lack of amount of cup, so....
Mario Golf ? I'm terrible at playing golf on video games. I still don't continue my Mario Golf 3DS.
Super Monkey Ball ? Not interested...
Crazy Taxi ? I have ever saw from Arcade but still not interested...

Looks like what is everyone's favorite are NOT even my interest.

@Anti-Matter Those are some pretty decent games in your list, but it's a relatively humble list from a catalog that has far more good games, and also quite a few games that are suitable for your taste.

@Anti-Matter If you like Crash and have played a Crash Bandicoot game before, that’s fine. However, I think Quack Attack is much less frustrating than Crash can be, so it really just depends if you want an easier or harder game.
