| Jumpin said: 2. It had an atrocious Fisher Price-like controller. In many ways, it GameCube was a backwards system since it abandoned the diamond face buttons for a really unintuitive and unusable design, the analog sticks were cheap, it lacked a proper d-pad, and lacked proper shoulder buttons. In many ways, GameCube was a bigger failure than virtual boy, GameCube was supposed to be Nintendo's second pillar console beside GBA. |
The presentation was terrible, all those different colors, odd shaped buttons, with a crayola PURPLE base. If Wii looked like that, despite the innovation it would not have sold nearly as well. Nintendo at least learned appearance matters in regards to what matches w/living room tech .
