The Nintendo GameCube (or NGC) is a video game console system produced by Nintendo, for which several Sonic the Hedgehog series games were released. It competed with the Sega Dreamcast (which ceased production before the system's launch), the Playstation 2, and the Xbox.
It was the first Nintendo system to use discs as a storage medium for its games. However, its discs were small and weren't full-size DVD discs. Partially due to this, there was no DVD playback functionality.



Added by SonictoastIts successor console is the Nintendo Wii and its predecessor was the Nintendo 64, or the N64, for which no Sonic games were made (SEGA was still manufacturing their own consoles at the time).
