Hi,
Wow! Someone else bought a GameCube rather than a PS2 or XBox! I thought I was the only one!
My personal favourites are BurnOut and BurnOut 2 - simply for the pure feeling of speed you get when whizzing around with the turbo on!
For a multi-player game, I enjoy TimeSplitters 2 - I like the variety of situations and locations, and have read that the recent follow-up is pretty good too.
It seems the GameCube situation in New Zealand is pretty much non-existant. Only a select few retail stores carry any GC titles, and even then it's a very restricted selection.

Hi,
Well, if you can get one cheaply with the title you're after then why not!
However... There's less of a range of titles than for the other consoles, and depending on your local situation, you might find it harder to get GameCube titles than XBox/PS2 ones.
And... most importantly, in the UK at least, PS2 and XBox titles are available heavily discounted after about a year after they've been released. This never really seemed to happen with the GC, with a lot of titles staying near their full price.
In hindsight, I should have bought a PS2, but was swayed by the Star Wars game available on the GC at the time of release.
If I was buying a console now, I'd personally either wait for the PS3 or get a cheap second-hand PS2.

Ikaruga: Not as good as Radiant Silvergun but it's the modern equivalent.
That's about the extent of why I bought a GameCube
