Nintendo’s new GameCube controller has an improved D-pad and motion control support.

A Reddit user opened up one of Nintendo’s reissued GameCube controllers for Switch Online members and discovered the D-pad internals are redesigned. They note the original controller’s D-pad sat further from the board, requiring a shaft to accommodate the gap. The new model’s main board is closer to the surface, which they claim improves accuracy.

Nintendo’s other surprise upgrade for its $64.99 controller include support for motion controls.

Fujifilm’s GFX Eterna cinema camera finally has some specs.

Fujifilm’s been quiet about its upcoming medium format cinema camera, but it’s trickling out just 10 initial features. These include: an optical lowpass filter, available sensor formats, in-camera codecs, custom LUTs, film simulations, film simulation-based 3D LUTs, custom framing guidelines, remote multi-camera control, Bluetooth, and LCD / on-board menu display specs.

Much of that sounds typical for any high-end cinema camera, but of course Fujifilm is flexing its film simulation muscles.
