Gamecube has at least twice as many good games as N64 but that's not very hard to achieve.
Cool, anti-N64 bias in a thread specifically about GC emulation is something I'd like to see more (not).
Seconded. I own around 25 games for the good ol' 64 and love them all. However, to get the topic back rolling (not really), I've never played a GC, so I wouldn't know about how many good games there are to do. But you can be assured, as soon as I find out about a good emulator, I'll be trying them all.
I decided to list the N64 games and GCN games I like.
N64
Tier 1 (actually good games): Bangaioh, Rockman DASH (non-exclusive), Mischief Makers, Mario 64, Paper Mario, Pokemon de Panepon, Puyo Puyo Sun (non-exclusive), Star Fox 64, Smash Brothers.
Tier 2 (good games in comparison): F-Zero X, Goemon 1 and 2, Goldeneye, Jet Force Gemini, Kirby 64, Zelda 5 & 5.5, Ogre Battle 64
GCN
Animal Crossing, Baten Kaitos, Capcom vs SNK 2 (non-exclusive), Chibi Robo, F-Zero GX, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, Ikaruga (non-exclusive), Zelda Four Swords, Zelda Wind Waker, MK Double Dash, Rockman EXE Transmission, Rockman X Command Mission (non-exclusive), Paper Mario 2, Puyo Puyo 5 (non-exclusive), the entire Biohazard series (we'll count it as one game that's kind of okay), Skies of Arcadia (non-exclusive), Sonic Mega Collection (non-exclusive), SoCal 2 (non-exclusive), Monkey Ball 1 & 2 (originally exclusive), Smash Bros 2, Viewtiful Joe 1 & 2 (originally exclusive), Wario World, Wario Ware
So yeah, there are some good N64 games... but I still don't like the system. Anyway. I'll not derail this thread anymore.
someone is out there who will like you. take off your mask so they can find you faster.
I support the new Nekketsu Kouha Kunio-kun.
Instead of going to the more modern game consoles, I perasonally would prefer if TASes were made of the so-called "8-bit computers" such as C64, Amstrad, Spectrum, etc. (I myself would probably start making loads of Spectrum runs if there was a rerecording emulator for it.)

N64
Tier 1 (actually good games): Bangaioh, Rockman DASH (non-exclusive), Mischief Makers, Mario 64, Paper Mario, Pokemon de Panepon, Puyo Puyo Sun (non-exclusive), Star Fox 64, Smash Brothers.
Tier 2 (good games in comparison): F-Zero X, Goemon 1 and 2, Goldeneye, Jet Force Gemini, Kirby 64, Zelda 5 & 5.5, Ogre Battle 64
That list is a bit messed up
Bangaioh, Rockman DASH, Mischied Makers, Paper Mario, Pokemon de Panepon, Puyo puyo Sub are no way top tier game. F-zero X, Goldeneye, JFG are more qualified to be a top tier games.
Anyway in terms of good Gamecube game in no paticular order
Tww, Twighlight Princess, Viewtiful Joe 1+2, Pikmin 1+2, Metroid Prime 1+2, Prince of persia 1-3, F-Zero Gx, MKDD, Resident Evil, Resident Evil 4, Timesplters 2-3, Monkey ball 1+2, Soul Calibur 2, Smash Bros, animal crossing, Splinter Cell 1-3.
They aren't neccesarily ideal for TASing or even strictly exclusives but you see my point.

To-do list:
- Wait for computers to get powerful enough to emulate GCN games at comparable frame rates
- Add frame advance support
- Add re-recording support
- Fix lots and lots of compatibility issues and bugs/glitches
I know I'm not the only one who's looking forward to it, but it will take a good amount of time.
