Found the perfect wireless GameCube controller that’s an alternative to the Wavebird… the Retro Fighters Wireless GameCube Controller.
It doesn’t release until April 25th, 2022 but it’s actually detected as a GC controller with analog triggers and an RF receiver. It’ll work on GameCube, Switch and PC.
I am in such an awkward place with Kirby & the Forgotten Land right now. I absolutely adore Kirby, Super Star and Triple Deluxe are some of my favourite games on their respective systems and it's always really fun to play through them, along with the fact that it's BLOODY THREE DIMENSIONS. On the other hand however, we haven't seen ANYTHING past the first trailer when the game's supposed to come out in 4-5 months max and it seems to be sandwiched for me between Legends Arceus, Animal Crossing AND Great Ace Attorney makes me wonder if I'll even bring myself to get it since, knowing Nintendo, they'll be charging the full SITTY DOLLA BILLS for it at launch (I really hope someone gets that reference).

Nintendo only talks about one game at a time. Right now that's Pokémon Legends Arceus, which has gotten several videos and Twitter info dumps. After that, I'll likely be Advance Wars 1+2 Re-Boot Camp. And then, come April, they'll probably start talking about Kirby, for a late May or early June release.

@JaxonH Still, that would be shockingly close to the release window, especially since this is a brand new style of gameplay for Kirby. You'd think they'd want to be like "Kirby can go here! Kirby can do this! Kirby has a gun!". OK, that last one may be a stretch but you get my point. Then again, they might just have a whole segment to him in the next Direct similar to what happened to Star Allies before it released and everything I have said up until now will be invalidated. I wouldn't mind it personally.

The Brook SE adapter adds gyro to the Series X controller with zero perceptible lag. It feels as natural as a Switch Pro controller...
This is a gaming miracle! The Xbox controller is no longer handicapped by lack of gyro. Why nobody spoke of this thing earlier is beyond me. But I'm digging in deep and finding all the hidden gem gadgets and gizmos for gaming.

I remember people talking about this when the DLC first launched, but woof, the Octo Expansion has some challenging stages. It's a good kind of challenge, though - my OLED is in the mail anyway, so if I launch my OG Switch across the room it'll be fine lol
@rallydefault Not really, Splatoon 2 doesn't have cloud saves so if your Switch dies you lose all your progress (same with Pokemon and some other games).
Uhm. I think I'm missing what you're trying to say? How are you less likely to "mess" with your save file on your own Switch rather than a cloud save? Wouldn't the opposite be more true?
@rallydefault If manual cloud save upload is chosen someone could for example have a cloud save with A rank in Splat Zones, goes down to B rank in Splat Zones, deletes their local save, copies the cloud save with the higher rank and then when they load up the game they'd be back at A rank so by not having cloud saves that is avoided.
These kind of exploits is a reason why for most games online multiplayer stats are only on a server, not locally. Perhaps Splatoon 3 will resolve this.
Just wanted to pop in here to say how absolutely INSANE Mario Party Superstars OST goes for no reason whatsoever. Like, IT'S BLOODY MARIO PARTY WHY IS IT SO GOOD. I've been binging the main themes, Space Land, Peach's Birthday Cake and EVERY. SINGLE. MINIGAME THEME. WHAT.

If you like video game OSTs, check out these
DKC Tropical Freeze - Homecoming Hijinx
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 - Mor Ardain (Day)
Shin Megami Tensei V - Spiral
There’s like, a dozen killer tracks in DKC, and at least as many for Xenoblade. SMTV has a few as well. But Fire Emblem? Hoo boy. That OST is straight fire
Fire Emblem Three Houses - Chasing Daybreak
Fire Emblem Three Houses - Beneath the Banner

@JaxonH Funnily enough, I was literally just listening to Mor Ardain and FE3H Main Theme the other day. As for some of my favourite Switch-era songs so far:
So my OLED has a weird problem and I wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this. When I download games on my OLED via Wi-Fi, it effects my pro controller connected wirelessly, adding huge amounts of input lag to the controller, until the download is finished. Effectively making it unusable while downloading. This never happened on my old Switch, which was a V2, is this a fault with my OLED I’ll need fixing or replaced or something else?
amFilm has a new Switch OLED tempered glass screen protector kit that auto applies it for you, perfectly aligned and without dust. Screen protector covers entire screen edge to edge. This thing is awesome. Thinking about buying one and redoing mine now for edge to edge coverage.
