The launch of Switch 2 brings subscribers’ choice, offering a range of Retro GameCube games to the Nintendo Switch online service. As NES, SNES, N64 and even SEGA Genesis/Mega Drive do, Nintendo releases the perfect entertainment for these original controllers, allowing you to play these classic games as realistically as possible.
For anyone who played in the game when Gamecube was first, it is now a bit surreal and now it is perfectly entertaining the original controller, which is wireless, but no Large wavebird model. This is not a bad thing, though, and decades of muscle memory will soon begin. Young players will find unusual shape controllers at first. Strangely, its C-Stick and C-Stick and its small pieces and its chunky, rounded round shoulders triggered, but after a few rounds F-Zero GXyou will soon realize how perfect the game of this controller is.
For a modern update, Nintendo made a slight tweak to the design and included Switch 2-specific controls, namely the House, Screen Capture, and C buttons, on the top of the mat, and added a tiny new ZL button to the left shoulder. This helps make this GameCube pad widely compatible with some modern switches and Switch 2 games, though not a perfect match – the Start button here mimics the Switch 2’s Plus (+) button, but nothing can copy the negative (-) button, and the updated features are missing, such as a clickable thumb.
However, the availability of this controller is a problem. It is only available directly from Nintendo’s online store, can be purchased only if you have an active Nintendo Switch online subscription, and is limited to every account in the US, but there are two units in the UK.
