--- Quote from: oldgamerz on February 17, 2021, 03:48:41 am ---I discovered out that now a lot of GameCube games suffer a drifty analog stick, a lot of controllers have this problem where the game thinks you're moving to the right and it automatically moves your character to the right even when you are not pressing any buttion.

As someone who's had a GameCube since 2004 and has continuously kept playing it over the years, using both my original controllers and new ones made by third parties in recent years, I have no idea what you are talking about here and this is the first time I've ever heard anyone bring this up about the GC.

The Switch Joycons though, now that's another story.

I've never heard of this, either. Owned a GameCube for years.

He probably confused it with N64.

1st party GameCube controllers will drift if you hold the sticks or L/R buttons in any position other than neutral on starting up a game. The second page of every GameCube game manual will tell you how to fix it. It's the way the controller was made for some reason.

Fast forward a few years. I’ve started collecting NES games. So, that taste for Nintendo was renewed. I had graduated college and got a big boy job. I went down and bought a GameCube with Mario Party 7 at Best Buy. I’ve been in love ever since.

It’s the most fun system out of that generation. Those Nintendo exclusives are more fun today than anything else from that day. Too bad the controller is balls.

I never realized the controller was so hated I always favored it myself.

they aren't, usually pretty well loved. hating it is fairly rare it is considered to be one of the best controllers ever made.
