The GameCube was the first thing that really got me interested in low level coding, learning about and working with hardware through software, etc, it really changed my outlook on programming, and has attributed to making me the programmer that I am today (I make a living as a programmer for those who didn't know).
I wouldn't have guessed that 11 years later, I'd be running a website dedicated to the thing. Shame that at the moment I don't even have a proper GameCube setup at home, just a stupid Wii
