The cord is long enough to be playing comfortably. I was looking for this retro style controller.

Works so far no problem. Previously had the wireless powerA controller but the joy stick going up stopped registering as fast as it used to after about a year of owning it. Hopefully this one lasts longer and I purchased the extra warranty in case that happens again.

my son is an avid smash player and lives by this style of controller, does still suffer from stick drift if you're rough on controllers though

Works great for Mario Kart 8 deluxe and it's great for when the batterys run out of wireless

I use this for Dolphin Gamecube emulation on Mac. For the price this is a great controller! So much better than playing gamecube games on a regular controller. Just be aware that for this price, you won't be getting vibration.

Bought this as a placeholder while I was getting my JoyCons repaired. It was fantastic and actually became my favorite controller. But the dreaded drift kicked in and the controller became unplayable at around four months old. The throwback GameCube design is still comfortable and works well with many Switch games (not all games though). I’ve only run into one game that it wasn’t compatible with but between that and the short lifespan, I opted to purchase a more expensive pro controller as my backup now. Still a great backup while it lasted!!

The GameCube controller is the best Nintendo ever made. This one is good quality and brings back nostalgia memories. Wish the cable was longer.

There are a couple of upsides and downsides to this product. The upsides are that it works for what it is fundamentally. It has the old school shape and layout of a GameCube controller but that's about it. It has a USB port to connect to the switches dock which works fine but the main issue for me was the fact that it lacks the rumble motors which leaves it feeling very light weight and hollow. If you want the experience of playing like when you were a child but don't need all the bells and whistles, this is a sure pick for you, but if your interested in authenticity you're better off buying the adapter kit for the original controllers.

Who needs the adapter and the official controller when you can just plug this bad boy right into the base and have fun there and then and save money

This is a really fun controller and it's simple and fun to use. The only problem is that the triggers take a bit of extra force to register. This takes some getting used to as you need to let the trigger travel more before the action registers.

My son broke 2 sets of wireless controls so I needed a cheaper control that he wouldn’t break. This control works great and is built tough enough not to get trashed. It only took a little time for him to get used to the control layout and being corded.

Just like the old school controller makes it easier to play the games when you know exactly what buttons to use.

I bought this to play Slippi and Smash Ultimate. It works well for the switch, but isn't really all that suited for playing melee. The L and R buttons aren't analog, which might be nice for some people but isn't a good thing for melee. The sticks can be pressed in, which is nice for games that need them, but not necessary for smash games.

My husband loves it so much now I can’t play with my own switch lol plus I rather him playing the games instead of him going outside lol

Works wonderfully as that comfortable GameCube feel on the Switch with appropriate buttons for compatibility with new games!

It was amazing and I couldn’t ask for a better controller

My Son loves this controller! I love not buying a million batteries!!

Such a nostalgic controller that delivers on the aesthetics of the original. My only wish is that cable was using USB-C rather than the older one.

Great controller for it's price. Used it mainly for smash and Zelda, and it's worth every penny.

I bought this for a friend who enjoys playing gamecube games on pc. Works well no issues.
