Nintendo Wii U GameCube controller will create more problems than solutions for Nintendo


Nintendo is making a GameCube like controller for the Wii U. This is one of Nintendo's most terrible idea as of late, the Nintendo Wii U will now have the Gamepad, the Wiimote, the pro controller and now this new controller that will reflect a lot to the design of the GameCube Controller. Could this be a step forward or bigger step back since maybe the new controllers are not really appealing to the audience like it was back at launch.

The main reason why this is a bad idea is because the Wii U is now becoming an accessory hub. This means that they're trying to encourage customers to purchase different accessories for different games but even so that's not the issue. The issue is towards Nintendo not having a main audience so these accessories will create clutter and more financial problems for the company.

Another issue I'm having with Nintendo this time, is that all this money can be focused towards developing more games or working with third-party developers to bring more games to the Wii U. Speaking of which, how do you expect for developers to react to this? Now they have to create code for this controller to provide functionality to the games they made. This will also revive an old issue Nintendo had in the past with the Wii U not being able to play GameCube titles on to gamepad. Except this time it can affect all the current games on the Wii U but maybe not affect previous GameCube titles which was probably their main intention.

Nonetheless the focus of Nintendo clearly hasn't changed, they are putting focus on other things aside from the main issue which is games. We keep hearing that they're working on titles but we don't only care about their main franchise games which is what they still don't understand. As a gamer personally I want to see more third-party support so that I know I have variety of games for the Wii U to play.

- Analogue NT, the worst Nostalgic NES ever created (AKA RIP OFF)

*Purchased some memberships, now working with freelance journalist to bring news even faster to you. We however cannot disclose most of our associated sources due to terms and agreements, please enjoy our articles.

Lately we always see new consoles but here comes a rather interesting idea, wouldn't we love to see an old console be revitalized. Analog NT does just that and redesigns the original concept of the NES; but let us explain why this one Retro Gaming System you should Pass on.

For years NES has brought more than just entertainment for everybody, it introduced many children to a new world and experience with amazing heroes, failures and stories. To anyone a redesign of this console would be pretty much the most amazing thing ever created but let me tell you why this isn't the one that you would be looking for. 

Pretty much the main issue with this console is that it's literally just a NES in an aluminum body. The console doesn't include controllers or neither does it have any preloaded games. The highlight point is that it upscales to 720p or 1080p but honestly the blur in the game looks better than a giant pixelated screen. It includes OEM parts supposedly for the console which I highly doubt, but it's what they state. So what's wrong with it? Well it exchanges anything that brought Nostalgia to the original NES and personally it's like a plastic surgery; Full of Lies and down right disgusting.


I'm not here to just hate, but for that the cost ($500) they are pricing this you might as well as buy a Xi3 and download ROMs or a NES cartridge adapter. Either way you will be able to do more than just play NES and Favicom games. Finally let me tell you the honest opinion we have overall of this product, It's pretty much taking advantage of peoples Nostalgia, plus whoever would pay such a high price of $500 (Pretty much same as an iPad including the out aluminum shell. An iPads specs are also hundreds times better) is pretty much out of their mind. Why not just buy a  NES and refurbish it yourself? It will have more Nostalgia than this paper weight. Overall the cost for the production doesn't necessarily add up....

(Their controllers should get more praise, they are officially Refurbished with the original OEM parts)
