    Really? I have the Wii U ones and they put up with a lot of abuse. The rubber on soke the sticks would have completely deteriorated but they still input accurately.

    It's honestly what's made me so bitter about the Joy Cons.

    Totally, my white Wii U one turned to SNES-Yellow overnight lol
    First the bottom half, just overnight, then two weeks later the top half.

    Still going strong after 4500 hours of smashing

        Right, but he sub is shareable and a pretty cheap barrier for entry... and required to play those GameCube games anyway.

        Nintendo opting to forgo selling retro games piecemeal and instead expecting consumers to rent access to them in perpetuity is an anti-consumer move. I have no problem paying for games when they're sold at affordable, reasonable prices, so until that's the case for Nintendo's library, better to just emulate as much of it as possible.

          Sure, but that's a different issue; I agree with that. Don't forget that if you even are allowed to 'buy' them, they will close the online service for that platform in the future with no guarantee you can use it on another platform.

            Because you need it to play them on Switch.

              Yes, Nintendo! Please paywall my nostalgia of the very first game console I ever played! Charge me an exorbitant price during a economic crisis to satisfy my childlike need to regress to a time before I understood what money was!

              Hang on, Nintendo fans are into findom? That would explain a few things. On a related note, I think I finally understood why people keep giving Chris Roberts money for Star Citizen.

                I mean, I bought the starter ship for SC which was 40€ I believe and I still play occaisonally. I'd say I definitely got my money's worth out of that game.

                  That one was a reissue of the original GameCube controller with the original connector and everything. It works on the original GameCube and Wii and with the USB adapter that was released with it, you can use it or any other GameCube controller on the WiiU, Switch and maybe even Switch 2.

                  This new controller looks like a GameCube controller, but is something entirely new. It is a modern wireless controller that mimics the GameCube controller shape and button layout but won't work on the original GameCube, at least not without some additional adapter hardware

                      I guess they don't want your money if you're not buying the switch. Strange move, but I guess it's their prerogative to alienate more consumers.

                      or if you can't afford it when you get the console.

                        unless you stumble on a brick, fall down and accidentally install a rp2040 on the switch, then accidentally flash picofly when trying to understand what's going on
