A user on here (forgot who) said Nintendo is clearly going third party because of this, and made a post saying this will hurt the Switch

The Gamecube was a powerful console, but look at what happened.

 

The Switch simply appeals to who Nintendo's audience is. People like their games on the go.

The Gamecube didn't use DVD-9 discs like the PS2 and Xbox and it also didn't have a full second analog stick. Games like GTA 3 would have been nearly impossible. That argument (Gamecube was powerful and it failed) has always been a total fail and it needs to stop being used. Power was not what killed the Gamecube. Limited media did it in.

Not gonna challenge you. Just gonna say the Gamecube controller was missing a few things the other controllers had (analog buttons, L3/R3, four shoulder buttons, a "select" button) but that right C-section stick functioned as well as any other analog stick. 

 

Carry on.
