Looking for fighting games on the Gamecube is pretty much useless. The D-pad is horrible for fighting games, Xbox has some decent ones though. Here are the ones off the top of my head, hope you like 2-D Fighters.

Guilty Gear X2 #Reload-One of the best 2-D fighters of all time IMO.

Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance, Mortal Kombat Deception, Mortal Kombat Armegeddon.-The mortal kombat games are pretty good, not high in my list of favorite fighters but the games have always been fun. Armegeddon is the best to get though with it having every character from the entire series.

Street Fighter Anniversary Collection-Contains the best versions of SF2 and SF3 in characters, balancing and the like.

Capcom Vs. SNK 2: EO-Fantastic game, one of my favorites. The mix of Capcom and SNK fighters spanning many games makes a really fun game.

The King of Fighters 02/03-King of Fighters is a pretty good series, I always preferred Street Fighter but this is just as good in some points. 03 is the better of the collection, it feels much more responsive and faster then 02.

Marvel Vs. Capcom 2-Many fighting game purists consider the game broken and very unbalanced, which is true but its still lots of fun. Good luck finding it for cheap though.

Capcom Fighting Evolution-Has many Capcom favorites and heavy hitters with some more obscure characters. It's not bad but the other games mentioned are much better choices.

Samurai Shodown V-I haven't played it myself but its made by SNK so it should be pretty good.

The King of Fighters: Neowave-Haven't played this one at all but its more classic based 1-1 bouts. Like Capcom Fighting Evolution it isn't bad, but the other ones listed are better ones to go after first.

The King of Fighters: Maximum Impact - Maniax-The game is 3-D graphics but the fighting is still in 2-D which is a good thing. I haven't played it myself but if you want a 3-D looking fighter with classic gameplay then you can't go wrong here.

There are others but they are crappy fighting games that aren't worth a damn.
