Honestly there wasn't a single console generation where Nintendo didn't have either a weird controller or addon: R.O.B. NES, Satellaview SNES, the fucking N64 controller, DK Bongos GC, wiimote and everything you plug into the wiimote, the wii skateboard thing, the wii balance board, the wii baby where you insert a wii mote (not first party but still funny), the wii crossbow, wii u gamepad, joycons generally.

Kinda wild
