Man. I remember both using the controller and seeing that add. One of those GameInformer magazines way back when it was still around.

Carpet in the bathroom? Bold choice
The good old days.

When that door is closed, you're forced to stare at yourself on the toilet.
Practicing my war face
You say "forced to", he says "able to" 🤷
Bathroom design advice: don’t hang mirrors facing toilets.
Unless you're into that shit, pun intended..
My absolute favourite controller of all time. No contest.
I’ve bought a kickstarter gamecube controller that’s supposed to be shipped by February. It’s basically a modern GameCube controller, usb-C, wireless, cables to put it directly into GCN/N64… the price is a little hefty but for a good controller (that hopefully lasts longer than my ps5 stick…) I’m willing to pay that.
Here’s the link for anyone interested, but I think you can’t get any more: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nicemitch/gc-ultimate-controller-kit/
For those that don't care about being able to plug it into the GameCube or N64 there is also the Nyxi Wizard

Ok but playing a game through a mirror would be hard af
Solution: play through two mirrors
Controller settings: Reverse X Axis.
Not on the GameCube tho, where button remapping involves a soldering iron or a custom PCB.
There are quite a lot of GameCube games that let you invert the camera controls. But I'm not aware of any that would let you invert the left analog stick
Is that Metroid Prime? Especially Metroid Prime.
As someone who’s currently rolling a nut log, this has come full circle. If only Nintendo could see me stream their games to my phone while I churn some fresh colon sausage.
