I just got a GameCube and am looking for the best games that 2 people can play at once. I want games I can play with my wife or friends, nothing too intense or serious. I'm thinking about getting SSBM and Super Monkey Ball 2. Any other suggestions?

super smash brothers is a very good choice as is monkey ball
the ea sports games are all very good too (madden, ncaa football, tiger woods pga, ect...)

Most of the best 2-4 player simultaneous games are yet to come though.
~ Mario Tennis
~ FZero
~ Soul Calibur 2 w/Link (may be too intense/serious)
~ Kirby's Air Ride
~ 1080 Snowboarding
~ Nintendo Puzzle Collection
~ Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles (the multiplayer is supposably amazing, but it requires GBAs)
~ Zelda Four Swords (also requires GBAs)
Then, of course, there's the undisputed God of multiplayer, Mario Kart, coming this Fall.

try ikaruga...it's a light-hearted game that is easy to adopt to. requires little to no concentration.
(please note the sarcasm; i'd feel bad if you dropped $40 on this game expecting something you could easily pick up.)
but the game does have a pretty darn cool co-op mode.

SSX (duh)
TimeSplitters 2
Smash Bros Melee (a must have for multiplayer)
super monkey ball (about the easiest controls in the world)
Tony Hawk 3
Wave Race
Simpsons Road Rage (okay, I didn't buy it, but it's still pretty fun, your wife might like it)
Animal Crossing (not simultaneous, but still something 4 people could get in on)
Beach Spikers
Also, don't forget the best review system you could find...rentals. Other than that, pretty much every other game that was listed here should be sufficient
Also, I have to say that PGC has the BEST and most HONEST game reviews I've seen. Take a look at their review page and you should get some excellent info on almost every game out there for the cube. Best of luck, my friend!

so i rented smash bros melee and played alone and didn't like it
if you want a game for multiplayer, both cooperative and against
that is simple enough for non gamers to play
beach spikers is top of the list there
it's not very fun alone though

i only have 280 :\ and now im bored with it, as i dont have any friends in this city yet, so i dont play it, i think SSB:M is boring for single, awsome for mulltiplayer

Ninja Turtles is comming out soon, I wish that Konami would spend the extra development time to add a 4 player mode, so all I can really reccomend is a rent.
Mystic Heroes doesnt have a real cooperative mode, but there is one that acts like one, but its more of a competition. Its rated T, and it may be a hard find, but this game is best when played with a friend or 3.
