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.

    Does everything it’s intended to. It’s not EXACTLY like the original game cube controller and the feel is off, however all buttons and connections work the same and not much of a problem. I do miss the OG controller and feel though.

    It works very well. Just like the GameCube but with two bumpers on each side and the plus and all the other switch buttons. Not noticing any significant input lag. Seems to be just as fast at the joy cons

    I love my powerA controller. Its last through countless smash ultimate nights. Its well made and i love it being wireless. I just wish it had rumble like the oem controllers did.

    Works well, haven’t had a problem with joycon drift yet but i’d recommended getting the warranty with all switch controllers since they all get that problem sooner or later.

    This controller feels truly just like the wired oem gamecube controller. With the added feature of motion as well it's a great choice. Only returned this as I had already received another one as a gift.

    This controller is awesome! Feels great in the hands. The wireless signal reaches about 25 feet and a single charge lasts about 8 hrs. A must buy for anyone serious about getting good at Smash Bros.

    For many games it can work amazingly with how good response times are but when paired with SSB Ultimate it’s like it was perfectly fit for it. A great price for such a good controller

    I mean.....crud dude,this was a big let down,a wireless,GameCube controller with clickable L3 and R3,ZL and ZR,home,screen shot buttons and start and select But dang,for $40 bucks I could've gotten an 8bitdo controller and THOSE have motion control,vibration and they're around the same price,if not cheaper! I mean,the novelty of having it is cool,but as for it being my "main" controller,I'm better off using an n64 controller then this,plus it requires batteries,no lithium ion battery,shame really for it being good looking,heck!! I think hyperkin's version/wii U version had rumble! And was rechargeable AND wireless,and that one costed $30 bucks. But,yeah,it's an ok controller,but you're better off getting a power A controller for its pleasing themes

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    If you consider yourself a gamer, you need one of these in your gaming toolbox. Nothing beats playing the classics on your switch with a classic controller which conjures up feelings of both nostalgia as well as childhood euphoria.

    Controller brings back memories of college. Smash feels comfortable to play again, and I use it in other titles as well. GC controller has always been one of my favorites, very comfortable.
