| |
| With relation to ''[[Metroid (series)|Metroid]]'', the Nintendo GameCube is home only to the first two ''[[Metroid Prime (series)|Metroid Prime]]'' games, ''[[Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]'' and ''[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]]''; however, a feature on the original ''Metroid Prime'' allowed connectivity to ''[[Metroid Fusion]]''. The connection is the only way of unlocking the [[Fusion Suit]] in ''Metroid Prime''.

| With a Game Boy Player, the original ''[[Metroid (game)|Metroid]]'', ''[[Metroid II: Return of Samus]]'', ''[[Metroid Fusion]]'', and ''[[Metroid: Zero Mission]]'' are playable on the Nintendo GameCube.
| |
| | |
| The game [[smashwiki:Super Smash Bros. Melee|''Super Smash Bros Melee'']] includes [[Samus Aran|Samus]] as a playable character. Also, several Nintendo GameCube titles included cameos of the ''Metroid'' series, including [[mariowiki:WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!|''WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$'']] and [[nookipedia:Animal Crossing (GCN)|''Animal Crossing'']].
