Does the GameCube Controller Work in Paper Mario TTYD Remake?

[@JIDIArts]

They’ll probably update it to work properly similar to Sunshine in 3D all stars

[@vortexluigirosalina5557]

That can work ❤

[@RealziesCuts]

It didn’t. They never fixed it.

[@legoboy7107]

@@RealziesCuts What do you mean? 3D All Stars was updated to support the Gamecube controller like the original, analog FLUDD spraying and all, I just tested it myself a couple weeks ago.

[@SALTYTOAD00]

​@RealziesCuts Yes, it did. I own 3D All-Stars, and it works perfectly with the GameCube controller now.

[@SALTYTOAD00]

​@@AprilTeniente-eu1mj The game was updated post-launch to add GC controller support.

[@SALTYTOAD00]

That's a shame, but who knows? Maybe they'll update it later on to add GameCube controller support.

[@Satellaview1889]

They did do that for 3D All-Stars, so there is a precedent for that sort of support for GameCube Rereleases.

[@NintenJoeGamer]

@@Satellaview1889 Yeah but those games were just ports and didn't feature any additional buttons right? I'd imagine this is different in that regard since the controller doesn't have enough buttons. I mean I guess they can do it with button combos or something but idk if they'd bother.

[@knuclear200x]

A gamecube game needs an update to use a gamecube controller

[@legoboy7107]

8BitDo has a wireless adapter thing you can plug your Gamecube controller into that allows the Switch to recognize it as a normal Pro Controller instead of a USB one, allowing you to remap the buttons like an actual Pro Controller!

[@timbo303official9]

One of Yoshi's attacks won't work well without the ZL button.

[@TheRiddler6129]

Stampede requires the ZL button.

[@Mushroom-3264]

@@TheRiddler6129 That's the one I'm talking about. I forgot the name of the attack while I was writing my comment for some reason.

[@IAmNotASandwich453]

You realize this game was originally running on the gamecube, right?

[@Mushroom-3264]

@@IAmNotASandwich453 Yeah, but the Switch remake requires you to press ZL and ZR for Stampede, which is impossible on a GameCube controller assuming the game will never get official GameCube controller support.

[@MusicJunkie37]

So apparently ZL and L both work for that attack, so that is inaccurate information.

[@zacharylandrum4789]

Why Nintendo does not put in no brainer features like this absolutely baffles me. This is Mario Sunshine in 3D All Stars all over again.

[@ijamesweb]

Here's hoping it's at least added at one point like Mario Sunshine in 3D all-stars

[@isaacmontemayor29]

I might get a Gamecube controller for switch, and I'll also Paper Mario ttyd for my birthday, just to see if it works with the switch gamecube controller.

[@LeonSKennedy7777]

Yeah, those are really easy to find nowadays for relatively cheap and they’ll definitely work as they have an added Z-button over the L-button.

[@omaridaniels8427]

I'm curious if the GameCube controller will be compatible with the Switch successor. Nintendo's kept it going for so long, no need to stop at this point. Especially if the Switch 2 ends up being backwards compatible.

[@SALTYTOAD00]

Seeing how the Wii U one works on the Switch, there's no reason it shouldn't.

[@Polengue]

As long Smash is popular in nintendo consoles, the gamecube controller existance won't cease

[@nintendosegafan4935]

When Nintendo release a new console, Smash Bros eventually follows. N64: Super Smash Bros Gamecube: Melee Wii: Brawl 3ds/Wii U: Smash 4 Switch (current): Ultimate. *"Everyone is Here!"*

[@rodrickgoldberg2324]

If a console carries Smash Bros., Nintendo will give it GameCube controller support.

@@PhilipMarcYT It depends on how well it's treated.

[@linkspokemon4114]

Wish nintendo would just add a ZL button to there future gamecube controllers

[@LennyQUMFIF]

Then… how would it work if plugged to an actual GameCube/Wii? No, don’t say that it’s gonna register as “Z” on an actual GameCube, the Inputs must be the same for it to actually work on both GameCube and the future Console, and that GC Adapter most likely wouldn’t be able to detect those Inputs, in fact maybe the Controller Port itself doesn’t have a theoretical 2nd Z button mapping so it wouldn’t really work… All because Nintendo was stupid and had to forget to put 1 stupid Button, as if the Mini Discs crippling the GameCube’s Storage wasn’t enough…

[@sethgob5591]

...how is the Nitro Deck GameCube like at all? It doesn't actually FEEL like a GameCube controller, nor has the layout of one. The only similarity is just the colors. A much better example would be something like the Nyxi Wizard.

[@2DCheese]

I have one of those Gamecube looking pro controllers that have all the buttons from the switch and it's all mapped onto a Gamecube controller template. Really excited to play this!

[@AyameSohma1993]

I actually just ordered the Power A GameCube controller because of this video. Thanks for the info.

[@captaingreen101]

I agree! It's awesome!

[@mrclean7473]

why am i not surprised

[@chriswoods7774]

Yeah about when Mario folds up, it was the R button on the GameCube originally by holding it down and use the control stick to move in the direction when you are folded.

[@AllOfTheAbove777]

They can just add an update so it can be supported like Smash Bros and 3D All-Stars

[@birdquest8695]

Good thing I have a GameCube themed pro controller.

[@joseolvera9287]

Hopefully they will update it one day. I’m sure something will work!

[@JMaster9877]

On the wireless GameCube controllers they made for the switch, the back trigger buttons r mapped to to ZL and ZR so it can be played with that version of the controller to recreate the classic experience

[@knuclear200x]

I wish they updated the Gamecube controller the modern day way instead. That'd be great.

[@josefarias5216]

There are some GameCube inspired pro controllers out there like the 8bitDo, but an official one would be perfection

[@TheDerpyDolphin]

Technically there are. They are just made by licensed third parties instead of Nintendo themselves.

[@peteypiranalover]

Or you can use the Pro Game cube contoller.......next mind u mention it.

[@blaziken386]

if you have the 8bitdo GCN adapter, it works mostly fine - you can remap buttons like any other controller, and the triggers become ZL/ZR natively - the only change i made was to turn the Z button into left bumper, because while right bumper brings up Status, L brings up the partner wheel, which is much more useful. The only main problem with that is... the gamecube controller is not a pro controller. the vibration motor is not the same. So when you walk through water/grass/certain areas of cortez's cave... the controller tries to do a very slight vibration to simulate the feeling of that. Which the GCN controller cannot do, so it just constantly vibrates the entire time! It's kind of annoying, because it still exists even with vibration turned OFF in settings!

[@gandhiodusklifgote1093]

There's some wireless battery powered ones that have the extra buttons.

[@TheMrCtoer]

I knew it would not be a 1 to 1 match due to the extra buttons but I wish they had learned from 3D All-Stars and made it so that it was fully functional from the start, hoping for an update like with that game.

[@UnboxedtvNet]

They ended up patching Gamecube support in the Mario Sunshine release on 3D All Stars, so hopefully the same happens here

[@whaleping]

Nintendo really perfected Gaming controllers with the GameCube.

One of those videos that the answer is found on the top comment. No point in doing an almost two-minute video to just say "not properly".

[@imjustcody]

Ok so after testing around with things myself. This video is kind of false. Literally the only thing you can't use with the gamecube controller is the partner hint feature, but if you're a veteran player like myself that's not gonna matter to you more than likely. Also doing moves in battle that require the ZL button can just be done with the L button, they function the exact same, so there's no move restrictions at all. Same goes for R and ZR they both function the exact same in battles. So have fun kiddos!

[@vapemaster9280]

Buy this instead Nintendo joy con game cube controller for switch bought it last year and it’s amazing 🤩 for retro gaming and gives you all the controls for new and old games have 8bito controller as well and it’s amazing but if you want that old game cube feel without compromising this is the best controller for switch in my opinion and it makes your switch look like a huge handheld GameCube it’s worth the price bought two just to keep one for backup

ok gamexplain. i can confrime the gamecube controller works allmost prefect. i beat the whole game with my gamecube controller. theres only 2 things you can.t do with gamecube controller. 1 you can.t do hints you need ZL for that. and 2. you can.t use yoshi stampee move. you need both ZL and ZR. everything thing els works fine. when i did not know were to go. i just go home manu and change to switch pro controller to press ZL for the hint and change back to gamecube controller. its not a big deal for yoshi move onless hes your main partner you alway use. for me its no big deal. my main partner is koops.
