Add a config option GAMECUBE_COMMON to be used as a dependency  
for all
options common to the Nintendo GameCube and Wii video game consoles.
Maybe something like GAMECUBE_OR_WII instead?  "COMMON" is so
common it's meaningless.
I don't like either GAMECUBE_OR_WII.
It looks as if it can be used to match options for the GAMECUBE  
_or_ WII. But that's not the meaning of it.

This option should be used only for options applicable to both the  
GAMECUBE and WII, i.e. basically those options in the WII which  
where "inherited" from the GAMECUBE to make it retro-compatible.

If GAMECUBE_COMMON is unacceptable, maybe GAMECUBE_LEGACY or  
GAMECUBE_COMPAT?
Maybe it's best to write GAMECUBE || WII in the places that use it,  
then?
