I would highly reccommend GC, though you could also wait for the Wii to come out and play GC games on it.
GC has fewer games, but the ones that do make it are usually pretty good. If you look though the PS2 library you'll find a lot of jank. Really confortable controller, and fast loading times.
Smash Bros Melee is incredible and is still popular after 5 years. Tales of Symphonia is a great RPG, same with Paper Mario 2. Both Metroid Prime games are nice shooters with some puzzle elements. Wind Waker.
