An exceptional accessory that fills in the remaining component that the Wii U didnt come with. This will allow you to hook up 4 Gamecube Controllers with no problems. If you have gamecube controllers lying around, they are compatible so use them while they still work.

Gamecube controllers do really work well for Smash Bros. With this, I can use my Wavebirds on the Wii U for Smash Bros. Wavebirds are Nintendo's own wireless gamecube controllers so the adapter will work with wireless gamecube controllers.

This adapter works great for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. I am able to continue using the GameCube controllers I've had since the GameCube was current gen. I am a little disappointed that the only game that utilizes the adapter is Smash Bros. I hope other games, like Mario Kart 8, will add support.

Its exactly what you would expect it to be and works exactly how you'd expect it. If you like the GameCube controller better than the 50 other different controller types in the game, snatch this guy up when it comes back in stock

So glad Nintendo made this adapter to use the gamecube controllers with the Wii U console. Easy to use, plug and play, they instantly worked once you start up the game.

It does what it needs to do and does it perfectly. Old GameCube controllers, new ones or even Dance Dance Revolution dance pads will work with this thing! When ever Nintendo decides to release more buy it ASAP!

The adapter for the Gamecube controller is obviously great, although you may have a hard time actually finding one in stores. If you can, snap it up and use it for Smash.

The only way I can play super smash bros is with the original gamecube controller. This adapter is a must if you want that "retro" feel of the gamecube controller.

The Wii U Game Cube Controller Adapter was sort of hard to find. Very happy to finally find it Best Buy!! It is a well made high quality Official Nintendo item and it shows. Does what it's supposed to do and that's all I can ask! This item was a lot larger in person than I Imagined it to be. All in all, very satisfied! Happy Gaming!!
