Nintendo’s Revitalized GameCube Controller for Switch 2 Is Somehow Better Than the Original

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-09-08 16:00:02

2025 Nostalgia should not be enough to give any tech a passing grade. But let me come clean. I wouldn’t have dropped $65 on the revitalized GameCube controller for Switch 2 if I hadn’t spent my preteen years beholden to Nintendo’s boxy console.

Instead, it’s constrained by Nintendo’s own restrictions on where and how y

In fact, I’ve tested and used dozens of internet speed tests -- the market is pretty saturated with them. Ideally, the best internet speed test is one that diagnoses your bandwidth blues as easily as possible -- no ads, no extra features you can’t make sense of and no slowing down your Wi-Fi. S
