- Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2018Color: MulticolorVerified PurchaseI had been WAITING for what felt like forever to buy a Smash 4 Gamecube controller, and the price of the controller was just not going down ($145.00 at the time of writing for the white Japan-exclusive). I could not justify spending that sum of money on a device that should only cost $25.00 (which it did, at one time, and I bought one for my brother in June of 2016).
So when Nintendo announced they were going to be selling Smash Bros Ultimate Gamecube controllers, I immediately navigated to Amazon.com and sought it out, praying the price wasn't outrageous. Thirty bucks! I smashed that 1-click-buy button faster than OJ Simpson's white Bronco.
It came in the mail today and felt great in my hands. Yes, it is made with cheaper materials than the OG Gamecube controllers, and yes, it has a matte finish (which I really enjoy nonetheless), but it performs as you'd expect a brand new Nintendo Gamecube controller to perform—flawlessly! I've been on this controller since Melee was released in 2001, and let me tell you, go with the Nintendo GC controllers, there are no rivals.
It's not your Xbox One Elite, or your Dualshock 4—it's an OG Gamecube controller, fresh from a Chinese factory and so ready to get some Smash on!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2024Color: MulticolorVerified PurchaseWorks and looks as described
- Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2018Color: MulticolorVerified PurchaseI don't play Smash Bros Melee or Smash for WiiU religiously like some of the reviewers here.
I'm not critiquing each and every individual button press and wondering how light or heavy the trigger pulls are.
I bought it so I could have a good and new GameCube controller for when Smash Ultimate comes out and so I could play the game *casually*.
And on the topic, good and new is a simple way to put my thoughts on it. It's a solid build and just as high quality as how an official Nintendo product should be.
The wire is long and durable. The plug end fits snugly in my third-party adapter. The controller gets identified immediately after plugging it in and pressing the A button.
The cardboard packaging is clean and simple, albeit a tad bit difficult to open without tearing the box itself (I wanted to try to keep it nice and neat). Inside, the controller is wrapped in a thick plastic baggie inside of a cardboard frame, no foam cushions or anything.
I did not have any problems with input lag or drifting thumbsticks.
I did not have any problems with chipped paint or flimsy buttons/triggers.
I did not have any problems with weak or broken cables.
The buttons are clean and easy to press.
The thumbsticks are grippy and responsive.
The controller's grainy-textured material feels comfortable to hold, but just try not to get any Cheeto fingers all over it for everyone's sake.
Overall: if you're looking for a new official GameCube controller that doesn't cost several hundred dollars, then I highly suggests jumping on this. Who knows if it's gonna be a limited run or not.
P.S. This is my own individual experience. It may differ from person to person.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2018Color: MulticolorVerified PurchaseFast inputs, long chord, good quality, feels and looks great. My original concern with this controller was that the pre-order date said it would arrive on Christmas, over two weeks after the release of Super Smash Bros Ultimate. Fortunately, it arrived yesterday, giving me time to get used to the feel of the controller before December 7th.
When comparing it side by side to the official controller that came with my Gamecube, the only difference that I can feel is the plastic it's made with. Some of the reviews for this controller have said that the plastic feels cheaper but I personally prefer the new material. The plastic on this controller feels a lot less likely to gather grease or marks after long play sessions.
Many of the 1-2 star reviews have very different issues with their controllers. Some are complaining about slow inputs, low quality triggers, and some people are having trouble with getting it to work on emulators. I've had none of these problems. Maybe I just got lucky with the one I was shipped but overall, I'm very satisfied with it.

Jesús Ernesto Jaramillo SalazarReviewed in Mexico on November 9, 20185.0 out of 5 stars Control excelente para SSBM competitivo
Color: MulticolorVerified PurchaseEl control al principio se siente igual que cuando salieron los de Smash for Wii U, pero con el poco uso uno se da cuenta que en realidad son mejores, pero no tan buenos como los originales para Gamecube o el blanco que salió para el Brawl.
Las notches vainilla que tiene son perfectas para hacer shieldrops en Melee
Dashbacks parece estar al 90% (a la izquierda no hacer el smash turnaround siempre)
Los gatillos se sienten duros pero poner light shield o hacer ledgedash se siente bien
Obviamente son mejores los controles originales no Smash, pero dado que por fin tenemos controles nuevos oficiales vale la pena probarlos, en el caso de querer usarlos para Smash for Wii U o Smash Ultimate están perfectos en todo aspecto.
NOTA: Al parecer es suerte que salga perfecto para Smash Melee, conocidos me han comentado que unos les han salido buenos y otros no.

Ken FamousReviewed in Canada on November 12, 20185.0 out of 5 stars Best Controller Returns to Production
Color: MulticolorVerified PurchaseNintendo brings back a classic. Triggers are still as stiff as the Smash Wii U controllers from 2014, the product is still top notch. I'm glad to see Nintendo reproducing these as this will drive prices of controllers back down from what they were a year ago since Nintendo announced the end of production.
Works with Gamecube, Wii U and Switch and PC(Via GCN adapter)
