What the FUCK is this?
>>720003831roast beef?
>>720003831Unmatched kino
>>720003831A Nintendo GameCube Wavebird controller.
Just give me my dualshock 2 please
Which part are you confused about
>>720003831The single fault of this controller is the lack of a left bumper.
>>720003831I think the C stick was for camera controls. They didn’t really have that figured out in the GCN era. Many games had shit camera controls. WW and Sunshine spring to mind.
Was the Wavebird actually good? I have a hard time believing a wireless controller at that time wouldn't have three seconds of input delay.
>>720004063Dinky right stick objectively bad
>>720003831Nintendo attempting to be clever and failing badly. They never did better than the SNES pad, though I certainly grant you need two sticks somewhere these days depending on the genre.
>>720004139It wasn't the fucking 80s but yeah there was like a handful of milliseconds of lag. Not going to be perceptible to the average person but an autist needing to do hyperprecise shit would probably notice one way or the other.
>>720003831You're looking at a god tier controller.

>>720003831ISO Standard for vidya controllers wasn't invented until the Xbox 360. The Gamecube was coming off the N64. The platformer was still the dominant genre of the market, a Mario game was the best selling game of the last three generations. You take it for granted but everything organized around twin stick shooter design is a fairly young feature of gaming. Nintendo was not expecting shooters to become so dominant in the market despite being the company that published Goldeneye and Perfect Dark. Hence the c-stick was more supposed to be light camera adjustment rather than something the player was expected to be constantly fiddling with, and they were expecting games to be using the face buttons extensively.Most games before twin-stick shooters also frequently used Super Mario 64 camera control schemes, treating the camera like a diegetic element where pushing left moved the camera perspective right, which you would still see in Gamecube games, as opposed to now where "move right means move perspective right"And thus, the Pro controllers are 360-layout and the Switch 2 has some grip buttons if you feel like it.
>>720004174It's literally the same stick with a smaller cap. This isn't like a N3DS nub situation. What the fuck were they thinking?
>>7200041392.4ghz connection, shit was lagless and its radio technology still makes up the backbone of all current wireless "lagless" connections
>>720004395This. However I really wish they made a Switch pro with top symmetrical sticks like Wii U.
>>720003831It's just for kids, so they made it like a bop-it or something. The pro design is better.
>>720003831its called soulful human design>left stick has an octagon to make it easier to aim pricely >right stick is small because it is used less >A button is large because its going to be most used, x/y are around it logically and b is small so you can press it and A at the same time easilyYou would need to play with it and be white to understand and see it as the best controller it is
>>720003831>That huge empty space at the topWhat were they thinking?
>>720004723fuck no
>>720004445They probably felt better about doing some cheaper half-measure rather than adding another full circle pad because the majority of 3DS users both before and after the N3DS launches would have just one circle pad, so any kind of second stick support is just optional. Of course, they should have had two circle pads from the beginning so none of this would have been an issue
>>720004068>WW and Sunshine spring to mind.The camera in these games was perfectly fine
>>720004068Re4 as well. Beat that shit on the Wii then went and played the tram part on my homies GC and boy was it a difference.
>>720004723Fucking A button on this thing started sticking instantly when my brother got one. Made playing Twilight Princess on the minivan LCD screen even more of a pain in the ass.
>>720004560That layout is honestly the best for games that use both sticks and shoulder buttons as the main action buttons.
>>720004384How hard is this to assemble?
>>720006085https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VKuYLV2sA4only barely more complicated than performing a shell swap for an official controller
>>720006403Is the mechanical trigger option analog + the mechanical button at the end, or just mechanical only?
>>720008128https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BTy2GuIoisdigital input only, it is a replacement for the analog sliders in their entirety by replacing that two-stage trigger mechanism with one low-profile keyboard switch
it makes sense if you're playing platformers
>>720003831why did they make the d-pad so bad?
>>720009038repurposed GBA parts (the d-pad piece is exactly the same as the OG horizontal game boy advance) + they weren't intending on using the d-pad much on the gamecube because the N64 didn't get very much use out of it
>>720009038>>720009136speaking about it though nintendo does actually know the gamecube's d-pad is complete dog shit, they redesigned the d-pad for the switch online version of the controller and it's now its own "module" with a better raised d-pad. in general the switch online gamecube controller got redesigned and some parts aren't compatible with OEM gamecube as a result but the stickboxes are the same so arguably the most important part of the controller feels the same
>>720009378bizarre that they went through the trouble but did nothing about the completely dysfunctional switch pro controller dpad
>>720003831Kino in controller form.
>>720009136>(the d-pad piece is exactly the same as the OG horizontal game boy advance)I don't believe you.
>>720003831it's a picture of a gamecube controller with labels labeling the names. it appears some retarded autistic child scribbled all over the image in mspaint needlessly circling random things and adding question marks and arrows for no reason, likely while defecating his underpants
>>720009528i do find the switch 2 pro controller's d-pad is a bit better but i also find it odd nintendo has a somewhat bad d-pad in the first place when normally they're kings of that>>720010051it is, very literally, the same d-pad as the original GBAthe original GBA also had a notoriously dog shit d-pad
