I remember getting a GameCube on launch day, I was bummed I didn't get Luigi's mansion as it was sold out but got rogue leader instead and my jaw dropped when I saw the graphics, same with resident evil remake.

Why are Rogue Squadron series still not on Switch is beyond my understanding

[adityaparam]

I remember watching playthroughs of this as a kid and being blown away by the graphics.

I got a copy of Rogue Squadron from Goodwill a few years later and I've been meaning to play this since.

This was the first Game i saw for the sixth Generation.
I was simply blown away!
I remember a friend played the first Level (Death Star) and i was watching.
My brain couldn´t comprehend what was going on. It was simply perfect!

I remember how mind-blowing it was that a mission changed dramatically depending on the IRL time of day you played it at! 🤯

This is the pinnacle era of gaming. I miss this generation of gaming

This and Smash Bros Melee were my first Gamecube games.

I was playing this at a kiosk in a store back in the day. I was a huge fan of the first game on the N64. I could not believe the graphics - way ahead of its time when it was released. I too feel that the graphics still hold up today.

Its really bizarre that Bounty Hunter came to PC before this. I hope we get a rerelease.

[Kousaburo]

What a damn shame the lead system the PS2 didn't mach the Gamecube and Xbox in terms of power. Those are some Xbox 360 level graphics.

I discovered that Imperial Academy Heist has two modes. If you play during morning times on the clock, the level will be a daytime level, but if you play later in the evening or night, the level is dark and foggy.

Nice! Love your content man! Keep it up!

[matthewbolitho-jones]

I like Star Wars: Rogue Squadron 2 Rogue Leader

[Obi-Twan]

Nintendo please release a remaster of this on the Switch or new console.

I honestly found the 1st game the better out of the 3 since the difficulty was balanced as was the missions. When it comes to the 2nd and 3rd games I had to use the codes to unlock certain missions since trying to get gold is a bitch

I was pretty miffed back when this first came out that there wasn't going to be a PC port this time around - and to this day there still hasn't been a PC port or any sort of remaster for any of these games. I know rumors keep coming up year after year that a remaster of the 3 games might be coming sooner or later, but as of now it hasn't happened sadly.

This game was the sole reason that I bought a GameCube at launch. Still love it today👍

[codezero]

this game showcased some of the best graphics on the GameCube.

[dr.loomis]

I remember seeing screenshots of this game and thinking "There's no way it can look THAT good"


...and then it did

I love this more than the 2nd series battlefronts.
