I want Nintendo to make a direct stylistic sequel to the GameCube called the Game³. Like an upgraded GameCube with stronger hardware and modern capabilities, but still retaining the sleek design sensibility and perfect controller design.

I think they called it the Wii U.

No. The Wii U is nothing like the GameCube. It’s a direct sequel to the Wii, hence the use of that name. Only it’s really a beast of its own even then.

I think Handman was making a joke. Something like how the ³ suggests the third console generation following the GameCube itself.

No. The Wii U is nothing like the GameCube.

It sold terribly; had a great lineup of games, although not many due to limited third party support; had the ability to use a second screen as a controller, introducing unique gameplay that was ultimately underutilized; had neat cover art; and had the best controller for Smash Bros ever.

Or that. But the N64 didn’t do well either.
