Nope. Stop trying to make these guys focus on old games. We want new new new.

Digital triggers might make that difficult...

Aren't there work arounds? Couldn't they ultimately release special GameCube themed joy cons with analog if not? Also, for home use they can allow the GameCube adapter for Wii U to work. I'm sure Smash Bros. will come with GameCube controller support.

I can't remember how many GC games actually used the L and R buttons to their full potential bar Sunshine and Rogue Leader. I'm sure they could find a work around, though.

Switch doesn't even have analog triggers

Damd_Bowsr3395d ago

??? but it does have triggers..... are they digital?

PhoenixUp3395d ago

Yes but they're not analog like the GameCube's, they're digital

porkChop3397d ago

The GameCube only had 1 trigger/shoulder button on the left side. So for VC purposes, the left shoulder button could act like a function/modifier. So basically when pressing or holding it, the triggers would act like a half press on the GameCube. That might work for some games.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit19d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing19d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9218d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
