    Nintendo’s main consoles usually change pretty drastically generation to generation after SNES.

    SNES -> N64, 3D graphics and bizarre controller.

    N64 -> GameCube, sensible controller and generational leap in graphics (better than the PS2 for sure).

    GameCube -> Wii, shit graphics but with motion control

    Wii -> Wii U, decent graphics, tablet!

    Wii U -> Switch, Portable hybrid

    Switch -> Switch 2, uhhhh spec bump

    It’s definitely out of character

      GameCube, sensible controller

      No shade on the GameCube controller, but “sensible” is not the first adjective that comes to mind for that thing. It looks like a fever dream.

        Maybe a matter of taste; that remains my favorite layout. Massive primary button, smaller secondary button, tertiary buttons wrapped around and in easy reach of the others. Add a left shoulder button and it’s basically perfect to me.
