Okay so I'm very fucking incompetent when it comes to wii. My wii is soft modded, I don't know if that'll be of much use though. I recently lost access to my gamecube controllers and I'm aware that when in gc mode the wii shit locks up. Is there any way possible to use a wii classic controller in gc mode?

one of the cool things about nintendont, is that its meant to be ran from a frontend. for example, i have CFGUSBLoader for all my backups. its setup so that gamecube games are displayed as well and initiate nintendont when selected. definitely check it out

Alternatively there are classic to gamecube adapters (and ones doing the opposite), which exactly due to the existence of Nintendont and dependency on a wiimote are more interesting for Wii/WiiU mode :)

Sure! Without any configuration even on those "non backward compatible" Wii's.. Just connect it before starting Nintendont.

But let me tell you that playing with an original NGC controller is unbeatable.
playing with a ps4 pad .. buttons bit backwards config.ini did not change anything .. saw a classic controller in gamestop for $10

Are you using most recent version of Nintendont? That one doesn't need configuration of gamepads at all.
Using a Classic Controller is a good option indeed, you'll also get analog L/R buttons, something not possible if using a Controller Pro, so anyway, I don't like having my Wiimote turned on while playing GC games, so I prefer using a real GC controller.

You can get Analog Button Emulation on the CCP by pressing L+Bumper buttons

OK, but emulation its not the same as real analog input. Thanks for that tip, actually I didn't knew it, don't have a Classic Controller Pro... Or maybe yes, can't remember as I don't need it.

    they need to have a strong line up on the launch titles too. I think they should move metroid prime 4 to the next console because by now it has been quite a while and there's no release date scheduled yet
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    lol there's a guy selling mig switch in usa on ebay for $200/ea he's definitely going to get nailed with dmca by tomorrow
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    Wasn't Metroid Prime 4 teased all the way back in 2017? For the switch no less?
    :rofl2:
  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    Pretty sure anyone buying the switch just for that got duped
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    for $200? rofl.
  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    well as far as metroid prime 4 is concerned, the next system probably is similar enough to the current gen they can probably easily just slap it onto a next gen cart and call it good :P
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    The switch was about 350 in 2017

    Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima took the stage at the outset to reveal that Switch will launch globally on March 3, 2017 for $299.99—earlier than some had expected at the price many suspected. https://time.com/4632820/nintendo-switch-nx/

    The 3DO and Neo Geo where like 700 bucks hmm the PS3 was stupid expensive at launch lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But at least the PS3 was only 500 for the cheapest one at launch
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    My opinion is that 199.99 is the sweet spot but that spot is long gone lol

    400 is a decent sweet spot if we get enough out of it
