Let's fix that.
I never owned a GameCube before. But I've heard really good things about Dolphin. What are some "gotta play" GameCube games? Is an actual GameCube worth buying today and playing the games on it?

Most of the games on this chart can be considered must play games. Just know that the Gamecube is slowly becoming the new SNES in terms of game prices, so consider emulation as an alternative.

an older-model Wii can play Gamecube games, correct? Do the games run just as fine on the Wii as they did on the original system? I'd like to have an actual system that I can switch inputs over to.

All Wii models can play GC games through Nintendont. Even WiiU can play GC through vWii.

Oh, I see. But with Wii, can I yarhar Wii and Gamecube ISOs to play them on the wii by just putting them on an SD card? well, I guess multiple SD cards, since the game files are at least about 1~3GB each.

They run better on the Wii, more compability with DIOS MIOS, and look better with Wii2HDMI.
Emulate if you can though, the Wii only outputs at 640x480p, and it stretches the image as a psuedo-widescreen and gives it all sorts of ugly artifacts when playing it in an HDTV with RGB cables.
I use Wii2HDMI and convert the signal back to analog with an HDMI to VGA adapter, plug it in to a 4:3 monitor (or a widescreen display in 4:3 mode) and plug in speakers, in widescreen mode. I recommend just getting a display in in native 4:3 though, since the black bars won't bother you and you won't be temped to stretch it out. The better the monitor, the better the image. The internal resolution is still 480p, so it looks sharp as fuck. It's by far, the best image you can ever possibly hope to get without emulating your system.
Also, get a Wii2HDMI like pic related that runs on a native 480p, it looks smoother and doesn't have any post-processing filters like the 1080p scalers, let your HDTV/Monitor's inner tuner upscale it itself. Trust me, you'll minimize jaggies that way.
This as well, I haven't made my Wii U's vii mode support gamecube games though. I haven't been assed enough, I'm unsure if they look better, since the vWii mode looks like it's been plastered in vaseline or something. For a mode that is emulated, it doesn't look as sharp as a native wii system. I should do a comparison sometime, I could be wrong, but don't count on it, I'm VERY analytical.
Cap this post please. I don't want to retype it.

Actually they didn't make a Wii mini. It lacks WiFi and GameCube support.
Angel Allen
I capped it for you.

Fuck, just noticed some of my typos, I'm sure people will still understand though. Thank you.
Have some re-mastered music tidbits.
