Welcome everyone, to Famiboards' next Game Event - celebrating the Nintendo GameCube's 20th Anniversary! Released in Japan in September of 2001 and in North America in November, I figured we could all show the little Cube that Could some extra love during its big 2-0 celebration. The event runs from today until midnight PST on November 30th, 2021.
As before, the event works like this: for the duration of the event, you'll eligible to earn badges on the board (that you can choose to feature on your profile and posts) by completing challenges related to the event. Without further ado, here are the challenges:
Complete ANY GameCube game during the event.
In Pikmin 1's challenge mode, grow at least 100 Pikmin OR complete Pikmin 2's challenge mode.
Defeat six opponents in Cruel Melee mode in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
Complete all Master boards in either Super Monkey Ball 1 or 2.
Collect all Blue Coins in Mario Sunshine; Shine count is irrelevant.
Complete either Metroid Prime 1 or 2 with either 100% items or 100% scans.
In Animal Crossing for GameCube, give an item as a gift to another player via the game's password system. This item has to be specific for the receiving player and not a generic code.
Win the All Cup Tour in Mario Kart: Double Dash.
Collect all figures in the Nintendo Gallery in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.
Complete the "AX" cup in F-Zero GX on Very Hard.
Purify all the Shadow Pokémon in either Pokémon Colosseum or Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.
After successfully completing the challenge, post the proof of your accomplishment here in this thread (video or image evidence will suffice; this is basically on the honor system, there won't be an in-depth verification. It's for fun!) and indicate which challenge you tried to get. Please either @ me or wait for the badge to be awarded to you; this is a manual process, so I politely ask for your patience.
Even if you decide not to go for the challenges, I hope you discuss the games and share your experiences here. Were you at the GameCube launch? When did you get yours, if you owned one? Please discuss!
Speaking of challenges, you probably noticed they are a bit more difficult this time around! While I think everyone can at least get a Commemorative Cube, it'll take a lot of skill to get all of them. That's by design. because this time, those who participate in the challenge and earn a badge will be entered into a raffle to win a GameCube Prize Pack! Details TBD, but each badge earned nets you an additional raffle entry. Please watch this thread for further updates!
Whew, with all of that out of the way, please enjoy this event and have fun! I have one more big event planned this year, so I hope you look forward to it as well.
