7 Reasons The Nintendo Gamecube Is Still The Best Console Of All Time

Oh good giddy god. Lordy lordy loo. There will never be another controller like the GameCube's. As though it were carved by the gods themselves!

Ahem.

Sorry, we may have gotten somewhat carried away there, but seriously, guys, this was such a thing of beauty, especially if we compare it to the absolute nightmares people had to deal with from Sony and Microsoft. We're putting it out there right now, the PlayStation controller sucks, it's always sucked and for the life of us we've never been able to figure out why Sony insist on retaining that design.

That was still nothing in comparison to the original Xbox controller. Jesus Christ, remember that? That thing was like holding a coconut that had a number of smaller coconuts strapped on. Shudder.

But then you had the GameCube controller. This beautiful bit of ergonomically designed gorgeousness was the single most comfortable thing in the world. With it's squishy back buttons and shape that felt like Nintendo had just poured it into someone's hands as they held them in the ideal position... we're aware that got kind of sexual there. No, we don't apologise.

This is all the more impressive considering the fact that this controller followed up that horrid bit of moist trash that was the N64 controller. Once again, Nintendo stepping up their game.
