An old ad for the Wavebird controller for Gamecube

- Solution: play through two mirrors
- Controller settings: Reverse X Axis.
  
  Not on the GameCube tho, where button remapping involves a soldering iron or a custom PCB.
- Is that Metroid Prime? Especially Metroid Prime.
- You swap the left/right controls on the controller. Or game settings.
  I have no idea if that would work but it sounds good and dammit now I wanna try it.
Bathroom design advice: don’t hang mirrors facing toilets.
- Unless you're into that shit, pun intended..
As someone who’s currently rolling a nut log, this has come full circle. If only Nintendo could see me stream their games to my phone while I churn some fresh colon sausage.
- I generally nut ropes, but mad props to a man who can nut logs
- I mean, the Switch is already designed to take it to the shitter with you.

My absolute favourite controller of all time. No contest.
- I’ve bought a kickstarter gamecube controller that’s supposed to be shipped by February. It’s basically a modern GameCube controller, usb-C, wireless, cables to put it directly into GCN/N64… the price is a little hefty but for a good controller (that hopefully lasts longer than my ps5 stick…) I’m willing to pay that.
  Here’s the link for anyone interested, but I think you can’t get any more: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nicemitch/gc-ultimate-controller-kit/
  
  For those that don't care about being able to plug it into the GameCube or N64 there is also the Nyxi Wizard

This just unlocked a memory of running a PS2 controller extension cable to use on the toilet 🤦🏻‍♂️😆
Man. I remember both using the controller and seeing that add. One of those GameInformer magazines way back when it was still around.
BEST. CONTROLLER. EVER
- Disagree. It didn't have rumble. That reason alone is why I always stuck with the wired controllers.
  
  Never much fan of that feedback. Also, battery life!
