    Please, post a link to the files you downloaded or a picture of the folder where the files you downloaded are making sure file extensions are visible.

    a few gamecube iso's are in gcm format, this is fine for both console and emulation use

    iso is a loose term and does not refur to the file extension it is in simple terms a disc image file, so both *.gcm and *.iso are iso images

    As for extraction of rar files it is best to use 7-zip mostly to save confusion while extracting, first extract the main content of the rar to a folder of it's own

    If you end up with a collection of files then the iso is contained inside of those that will need further extraction, for those you need to find the first file, the common ones end with *.r01 or *.001 sometimes there are ones that end with *.rar with the series of files *.r## then just extract via the first file only as all the other files are auto read
