Step into the cube—the compact powerhouse that proved great things really do come in small, purple packages.
Nintendo’s GameCube was a marvel of design: square, sturdy, and engineered for both fun and function.
This boxed system (model DOL-001) runs games from both Japan (NTSC-J) and North America (NTSC-U/C)—a rare hybrid of regions that opened a wider world of play.

“It’s easy to forget how futuristic the GameCube once looked—
that perfect cube with a handle, like a portable laboratory for joy.
And even now, twenty years later, the purple cube still hums with quiet confidence.”
