The GameCube, Wii, and Wii U all use the same basic setup: PowerPC G3 CPU and an ATi/AMD GPU with an upgrade each generation. They are, in effect, very similar to how the PS4 and Xbox One started their own current trends. In fact, the Wii U can run GameCube games natively with some effort, and Wii games out of the box.

I’ve been emulating this lately as I remember renting it a lot as a kid. For as bad as it could have been, it’s actually like, decent as a game. Wild lol.

They’ve been selling NFT avatars and avatar parts for a bit now. They’re not like, $1800 single unit ape pics, but they are a limited run set of digital items purchased for real money. They actually gave most people one for free like 2 years ago or something.
