That wireless controller is a bit pointless if you’re sitting 1.5m away from the screen. Gotta give her that.

It's called a WaveBird!

And you had to sit that close or else a cordless phone or other wireless device might interefere with the signal and stop registering inputs.

Cordless... phone...?

Haha you're old! (and so am I but never mind that)

GameCube came out 20+ years ago. We're all old down here.

Wavebird is the GOAT. Best name, best controller. Personally, I never had interference problems that couldn’t be fixed by changing the channel on the controller and even that was pretty rare.

Depends with the Wavebird. Due to using RF, the range can be pretty good. Or really bad if you live in a busy city.
