{{HardwareInfobox |image = Gamecube optical disk.jpg |type = Media |platforms = GameCube }} The '''''GameCube Game Disc''''' is a [[Nintendo]]-developed proprietary optical disc media for the [[GameCube]]. It is based on a variation of the 8 cm [[DVD]], or ''[[MiniDVD]]''. The GameCube Game Disc holds 1.5 [[GiB]] of information, and a barcode located on the inner ring of the disk surface assists in disc verification, helping to prevent software piracy. The main difference between the ''GameCube Game Disc'' and the ''MiniDVD'' format is that the data track on the ''GameCube Game Disc'' begins from the outside, as opposed to the inside for ''MiniDVD'' and all other DVD formats. This difference meant that [[Nintendo]] did not have to pay royalties to the ''[[Wikipedia:DVD Forum|DVD Forum]]''. Though the ''GameCube Game Disc'' could hold quite a bit of information for its time, games which used a lot of voice work or [[Full motion video|FMV]] frequently needed to be placed on two discs, such as ''[[Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes]]''.
