gamecube
GameCube was the first Nintendo console to use optical discs for its primary storage medium.
It was the first Nintendo console to support online gaming, a feature that required the use of an add-on broadband or modem adapter which was sold separately. One difference is that the only thing it could be connected to is the Game Boy advance, another is that it had 4 controller inputs and disks instead of game cartridges.
