I want to play some old GameCube games on my Wii. I’m looking for a a GameCube controller or equivalent that would work well. I’m not doing competitive Smash or anything, but I would still like something that is decent quality. The stuff I’ve seen on Amazon kinda makes me think it’s junk.
What are your recommendations for a readily available GameCube controller at this point?
The Smash controller is very good, but not as good as an original. The new one is lighter, is made of cheaper materials (my non-scientific opinion from holding them), and has triggers that can get stuck at certain angles.
But as far as modern GC controllers go, that’s probably the best option.
Controller modders would disagree with you. I got a discount on my send-in phob mod because my controller was newer and the modder could repurpose it for other customers.
