    I got one that didn’t work properly, returned it easily and now have one that works great. It doesn’t feel quite the same as an actual GameCube controller, but it is definitely worth the price.

    I like using this controller more than most my other ones and it was not even half the price. Mainly use it for super smash bros. Definitely worth the money

    It replicates the standard gamecube controller well. It feels cheaper and is bond to give in at some point, but never had any problems for the time I've had it so far.

    Comes with 10ft mini usb cable. The box didn't state it, but that's what it is. Some times I have connection issues, but when playing ac horizons, I don't really care.

    If you are into smash bros this is a must. I would take this over the pro controller any day. The price is really good and affordable over the pro controller.

    I loved this design when it came out for Gamecube and having it for our Switch is fantastic! Even if you are not a hardcore fight gamer this is a great controller for all your games

    Although the controller can feel cheap at times, it is still a good thing to have instead of ruining the fragile joycons

    C-Stick issues

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I've only had this controller that I bought from Best Buy for 17 days from Dec. 6th - 23rd & the C-Stick has already messed up on me When I try inputting up B in Smash Ultimate it gives me down B, even pressing the B button somehow gave me a down input even in the Switch's menu. I unscrewed the nails to the controller to see what was the problem while the controller was still connected, & the left stick down no, dpad down no, B surprisingly no, but turned out to be the C-Stick. Just simply unscrewing the nails thus taking the controller apart to see what was the problem somehow made my controller literally useless, the controller just automatically does a hard down input no matter how much I move the C-Stick even with the controller put back together. If only I knew how to fix 3rd party controllers.

    I never got to play as a kid but it's very retro and fun that Power A made this controller. Highly recommend is your trying to feel the retro vibe to the switch.
