I'm not sure what qualifies as "hidden" these days, but the games I've liked the most are Phantasy Star Online, Timesplitters 2, Skies of Arcadia, and Tales of Symphonia. None of these are exclusives, of course.

Rogue Squadron 2 is the best flight sim game ever made, and one of the best Star Wars games ever. The graphics are even better than whats on Xbox & PS2. But it was never re-released and there are so many Star Wars games that it tends to get lost in the shuffle, especially given that it’s a Gamecube exclusive.

But that’s the game you’re looking for, Rogue Squadron 2. The best hidden gem on this bad boy

yes, a major and top selling launch title, a sequel to a beloved game, that got stellar reviews, and was a technical marvel based on STAR WARS is a hidden gem.
this is the main game they used to show off the gamecube in department stores. i remember because playing this at walmart made me NEED a gamecube.

Manatee Insanitee, sure it's a port of the 1996 original, which debuted just a month and a half before RE1 (and was just as quickly forgotten) but it has added voice acting and full 3D character and ship models. It helped pioneer the trend of survival horror games during the 5th gen, although the underwater setting never seemed to catch on as a trend.
