Unlike previous Nintendo consoles, the GameCube no longer worked with game cartridges, but with mini-DVD discs in its own format. This allowed a game to be considerably larger in content, but sometimes had to wait for the game to load. Nintendo competed with the PlayStation 2 from Sony and the Xbox from Microsoft through these DVD discs.
