In 2000, while humanity was crawling from the wreckage and trying to rebuild after the devastation of Y2K, The Sims exploded on the PC. It was an opportunity for people to look down upon their creations, trap them in the pool until they dro...

BMX XXX sounds like a terrible idea on paper. It’s technically a perversion of the Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX series, which itself is a perversion of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater. Acclaim decided that they weren’t making enough mo...

There's something about the GameCube that's just fun. It's not my favorite console, accompanying controller, or library by a longshot. But it's super fun to hook up and mess around with. Maybe the magic is in the four WaveBird configuration...

[There's no other Nintendo series quite like Pikmin, and this blog from Sam van der Meer illustrates that point well with an admittedly very late-game example plucked from Pikmin 3. It's our hope that Pikmin 3 Deluxe – a seven-year-la...

As we're all stuck indoors trying to beat quarantine, Samura1man decided to do something a little differently in mid-March: beat Mario Sunshine with a Guitar Hero controller. But it wasn't a slow, clunky completion run. No, they a...

Not all heroes wear capes. Although the creator of the blog "Built by Brock" isn't going to go to your house and make this device at-will, the fact that it exists makes me happy. Yep, it's a GameCube remote adapter that's been fully integra...

[Update: Kenji Hiruta finds the overwhelming support for Skies of Arcadia "impressive," and vows to "organize all [the] comments and submit [them] to Sega directly." Who knows if anything will happen here, but it's something!] At one p...

You might've seen Photoshopped images of GameCube-style Joy-Con controllers for Nintendo Switch, but this project from Shank Mods – a combination of a WaveBird and 3D-printed parts – is the real deal. Over the weekend, the creat...

Official Switch GameCube remotes can go for upward of $80. You know the drill. Nintendo releases a limited run of something, scalpers go crazy, Nintendo drags their feet on reprints and the world continues to turn. It's been a while since w...

Win or lose, I've literally never ended a round of Mario Party 4 feeling good about myself, my fellow players, or this wretched game – and yet I always come crawling back after enough time has passed. That's how it's always been, and ...

This week, believe it or don't, Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. franchise is an amazing 20 years old. That's 20 years of frenetic button-pounding, chaotic multiplayer warfare and turning up to tournaments in your pyjamas (at least that's what ...

This little old post from Littlewolf128 hit me like a ton of bricks. Yeah, I definitely want a GameCube dock for my Switch, especially when the GameCube controller ports actually work by way of the GC to Switch adapter! Digging into th...
