Customers are saying

Customers enjoy the wireless connectivity, nostalgic feel, and compatibility of the GameCube Style Wireless Controller for Nintendo Switch. They appreciate that it resembles the original GameCube controller and works well for playing Super Smash Bros. However, some customers are disappointed by the lack of rumble and the fact that it runs on AA batteries.

    Works great - my 7-year old plays on it instead of the joy-cons, which are awkward and small.

    I bought this because the wife is getting into playing Animal Crossings on the Switch after many, many years since playing the GC game. This is an excellent 'replica' controller. Very HQ build and other than the fact that the triggers are not analogue it is a perfect GC knockoff. Its a little high @ $50 as it does not have NFC and Rumble and it works off AA (battery life seems good so far). I got a price match off the internet for $35 and its easily worth that.
