I really like the GC Controller, but the fact that Nintendo went on and modernized it with Gyro, ZL, Home, Capture and C buttons but not a Minus or the stick buttons is a huge missed opportunity. I prefer to stick with my OEM instead of buying a new one

I played Kirby Air Riders with this, and it feels right. Masahiro Sakurai added the GameCube Controller mapping to it for those who have the wired originals with an adapter or the Wireless model, and it feels more natural, using A to boost and B to Swap Machines and do Specials feels right.

I too have OCD and thought I was crazy for how much I loved the feel of this controller. I fidget with it during work calls!

And now gamepads should evolve again. 4 back buttons+2 extra bumpers should be baseline

I kinda wish I would use this to play my favorite games such as Luigi’s Mansion

if they just let you remap the buttons on the thing per game like the GL and GR buttons this would be my main controller but its a bit annoying with the inverted LR to ZL ZR placement and the fact B is jump and Y is usually the attack button

Dang, looking back at the switch gamecube controller, the color was way off

They had zero reason to not just make left bumper the same full as right one and put menu buttons on it. But it's Nintendo, they really want people to buy two controllers instead, especially considering this one supposed to be cheaper.

I love it, but no select button makes some games genuinely unplayable. Accidentally pressed pause in Fire Emblem Three Houses - in that game "pause" actually zooms in the map super close. The Select button zooms back out to the main map screen. Without a select button, I got stuck, and had to go to the home to swap controllers for the standard Pro. Besides that, love it
