    It's an amazing adapter and allowing you to use the gamecube controller is so much better than any of the other options.

    This is a must have for Smash and old school games from the market. Makes them so much easier to play with a full sized controller rather than the wii remote!

    It's very easy to connect to the Wii U. I haven't tried the Wii U with 2 of these yet but knowing Nintendo, I'm sure it works great.

    Arrived a little late due to supply constraints but the gamecube adapter arrived in perfect shape and works well. Supports up to 4 gamecube controllers (you can connect 2 adapter to the WiiU as well).

    I bought this item thinking it would be compatible with my converted games like Mario Kart Wii and Game Cube games. It does not work with any of the games I had prior to upgrading to the Wii U system. I have not bought Smash Bros yet. I have also not used this part.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    The gamecube controller is a great controller and is probably the best you will find for smash bros. However, this adapter is only used for that game, so if you don't have smash bros (as well as other people to play with) then there is no need to buy this.
