Professor SJW posted:what's a good gamecube game other than the zeldas and metroid primes? dolphin emulator is Mario Sunshine, Eternal Darkness, the Resident Evil remake, Monkey Ball, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles (if you can play multiplayer), Luigi's Mansion, Ikaruga, Star Fox Adventures was fine for what it was, Baten Kaitos, the two Megaman collections, the Metal Gear Solid remake, Pikmin 1 and 2, Skies of Arcadia, Tales of Symphonia, TimeSplitters 2, Viewtiful Joe, and I can't remember if Chibi Robo was any good. The emulator also recognizes the Wii U controller adapter, so you can use your Gamecube controllers when you play on PC.

So the console isn't really $300, you guys. A dock is $90, and a pair of Joycons will run you $80, so you're really only paying $130 for the console itself.

Rutibex posted:no bluetooth? did nintendo invent their own proprietary wireless standard for these joycons, or are they just no letting you use the features of the Android tablet you bought? It uses Bluetooth. The pro controller can be used on PC, but it's unsupported officially, so you might as well go with an Xbox One controller for PC play anyway. Nintendo is just locking you out of pairing the console with anything they didn't intend for you to.

Heath posted:I bought one of those 360 pads with the transforming D-pad because I liked it for fighting games and the plastic was so cheap that it literally crumbled after like 3 months of use. That combined with the joystick placement making my thumb joint lock up and I just sold the whole loving console in favor of PS3 and the dual shock and never looked back Why would you play fighting games (plural) and not buy a proper fight stick?

Ol Cactus Dick posted:I got Breath of the Wild for WiiU and I think if you take away the 10 Zelda points from the metacritic score it's pretty accurate. A good game but lol at a 98 for it. No, no, that's because you're playing the Wii U version. The Switch version is actually 98/100, you see.
