In the decade + since the GameCube's release, many companies stepped up to offer their products for take on the controller. This is especially warranted as the GameCube's controller remains one of the most comfortable and intuitive ever released and each game in the Smash Bros. series to date (Switch version not released as of this writing) made use of this controller an option. For some time now, third party controllers were the only means of obtaining replacements. Unfortunately, replacements were often needed as one of the GameCube controllers flaws was that its joystick, when overused, began to weaken, or was automatically centered at an angle on startup. This did have a built-in workaround, but remained a constant annoyance and continued use and strain would eventually make it unfeasible unless you were tech-prone enough to replace it yourself. Thus, the third party controllers were almost essential to feed the demand for such controllers for Smash and other games on Wii and Wii U that supported it. However, in some ways many third party controllers were not quite up to the full range of tasks demanded by these systems. I personally used two such controllers from different companies and the weakness in their design was mainly in the use of the directional pad, which was all but required for certain games, especially RPGs played using the system's GameBoy Player. The directional pad was often imprecise, and must have been built with a different feel as I often found my characters walking off in the wrong direction. Nintendo released this new controller along with its 4th entry in the Smash Bros. series to sate the demands of its strong fanbase and, although an adaptor is required to use it with the system, this new release of the controller was very well received. It shares the same design specifications as its original, meaning that each part of it is fully capable of supporting all the proper functions. Just try to be gentle with the joystick or you may find yourself replacing it after a few years of use (or less).Read full review

The packaging is partly damaged, and not good looking. I did wish for a controller with new-packaging, because I was going to display it.

These controllers are every bit as good as the original Gamecube controllers, solidly-built, durable, and stylish to say the least. Perfect for any purpose, including emulators. I'd buy more if only I could afford them.
