GN Version 5.0

Coming from an interview with Nintendo's Yoshiaki Koizumi...

- only way to output video on a TV is via the dock
- it will not be possible to use the USB-C port to get video, even with a USB to HDMI adapter
- doesn't outright deny the possibility of GameCube games on Virtual Console and says "we are working on some things along those lines"
- Shinya Takahashi explains that if Nintendo were to release GameCube-shaped Joy-Cons, they would add analog triggers
- Takahashi believes the whole thing would end up looking bulky/hideous though
