The GameCube is Nintendo's first home console to support digital audio and video output, albeit through analog component cables; this feature was also used to display standard definition video through {{wp|progressive scan}}ning rather than conventional {{wp|Interlaced video|interlacing}}. Progressive scan is also supported when playing GameCube games on a Wii through component cables. All but two ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]''-related games for the GameCube support progressive scan, which can be enabled by holding down {{button|GCN|B}} while booting up a game; the sole exceptions are ''[[NBA Street V3]]'' and ''[[WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$!]]''.

The GameCube is also Nintendo's first system to be distributed in South Korea without the aid of {{wp|SK Hynix|Hyundai Electronics}}, who sold rebranded versions of the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]], [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]], [[Nintendo 64]], and [[Game Boy]] as the Comboy line of products; South Korea had begun lifting restrictions on Japanese cultural imports in 1998 and would undo most of the bans by 2004. Only 27 titles were officially released in the region, including ''[[Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour]]'', ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', ''[[Mario Party 4]]'', ''[[Mario Party 5]]'', ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.<ref>[http://scanlines16.com/en/blog-3/retro-gaming/game-cube/gamecube-korean-master-list/ Gamecube : Korean Master-List !]. ''Scanlines16.com''. Retrieved January 5, 2024.</ref>


In 2006, the Nintendo GameCube was succeeded by the [[Wii]]. The original version of the Wii is mostly compatible with Nintendo GameCube hardware and software. Like the Nintendo GameCube, the Wii has 4 controller ports and 2 memory card slots which support all controllers and accessories, like the dance mat and microphone, though it does not support add-ons that attach to the console, like the [[Game Boy Player]]. Later revisions of the Wii, such as the [[Wii#Wii Family Edition|Wii Family Edition]] and [[Wii#Wii mini|Wii Mini]], would remove Nintendo GameCube support. The [[Wii U]] and [[Nintendo Switch]] are also not compatible with any Nintendo GameCube games, but ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' and most Nintendo Switch games are compatible with the controllers through a special adapter. The GameCube controller is compatible with more consoles than any other Nintendo controller, with a total of four: GameCube, Wii, Wii U, and Nintendo Switch (as of its 4.0.0 update).
