There's a lot that can go wrong with wireless controllers. For example, someone can connect to the switch with a wireless controller and do a match, then forget to unpair the controller. Then they can accidentally or intentionally disrupt the match.

[@halfeatenburrito6195]

although I can't speak to the official Nintendo adapters (either Wii U or Switch) with the mayflash adapter - an extremely popular 3rd party alternative - this isn't true and if you only use one cable then having multiple GC controllers plugged into it will cause their inputs to overlap; e.g on char select screen me and my buddy were both moving the same hand when we tried this.

[@halfeatenburrito6195]

@@Henry-qt3py how odd, we were attempting to do 8 player smash with 6 joycons and 2 gc controllers when the issue occurred. I assumed it was the adapter's fault because when i plugged the other cable in the issue ceased, however it's possible it was just the system being confused by the sheer number of controllers plugged into it. The switch is impressively powerful but it's still a portable console.

I got both the PDP and the powerA wireless controller. I prefer the feel on the powerA controller.

Thanks for your video. I appreciate your work. The controller you mentioned at 9:21 has been the best one for me because of its size/weight/reliability. I bought a PDP Sonic controller, whilst I bought the Mario one for my friend. But I have a bone to pick with PDP. Both of our “A” buttons stick. And mine just happened after 1-2 weeks of playing. So my pretty sonic controller is just sitting around for its looks right now. It was $60 brand new and hard to find. I’m a sonic Mainer so I was so happy to find sonic themed controller and I wasn’t mad that it costed $20 more than my friends Mario controller. But as you said, the “A” button is the focus of the right side of the controller. Not happy at all. Have been trying noninvasive cleaning to fix it. But nothing works, because it’s not dirty. I’ll be calling them up to see what they will do. And I’ll advise if there’s any feedback. Does your “A” button stick from time to time on your Zelda PDP controller?

[@NinjaNeet]

I play with two combined PoweA wired controllers. I put three counterweights (they have metal conterweights in them) in the left side, and took a sander to the rigbt joustick to make an efficient C stick.

[@SgtEmissary]

I had a feeling there was some input lag here and there; I've been using the Bowser themed Pro Controller for awhile and while I do love it, I think I might go with the Zelda PDP controller as I feel for me personally, especially in competitive setting (if you really wanna get serious that is) that every second matters and the lower response time I feel would make me do better. 8.5 is a huge leap from 7.5. Not only that, but as someone whose used the Gamecube controller since Melee, I love it all around and it has such a nice comfortable feel. I have noticed that switching over to the Pro Controller does give me a rather awkward feel so it makes sense to swap eitherway. But hey, I figured I'd give a different controller a try right? See if it worked or not and it did to a point sure, but, doesn't exactly feel the same.

Thank you finally someone says something about plugging in controllers it's convenient mostly the only problem is the wire could be a little too short sometimes depending on how far you're sitting here or laying other than that it's more convenient than batteries or Bluetooth

[@nachofries3922]

Thank you bob, I started using the pdp controllers 6 months ago, and I definitely favor the pdp controllers too

[@josephgodsey7742]

The divots are a good thing. They are used for forward tilts, certain recoveries, and angled smash attacks.

[@Nintenerdo]

PowerA GameCube controller gave me the Wavebird nostalgia. I can play Mario kart, Mario Tennis, and Odyssey. I'm set...

[@aarokulmala1075]

Got the Hori one thanks alot for the shoulder button flip thing, didnt know that.

[@jz3784]

thanks for the helpful vid.

[@tmcnasty8447]

For gamecube controllers the shoulder buttons only need to go like half way

[@THEpicND]

T3M0 Lul less than that, its like 1/4 travel from rest

[@johnmarstall]

I like the wireless PowerA a lot. I don't mind any of the control styles though. Even a single joy-con works surprisingly well.

[@SuperSoNicX2000x]

You gotta give links to the awesome statue's you have in the background omg they're amazing .

[@KP_Uravity]

I have the pdp one, and I've been using as my main controller. It's so nice. I really love it! The reason I'm doing this is because my pro controllers left stick is dragging really badly. So it's unusable. And apparently every single pro controller has this problem, so I didn't want to shell out another 70 dollars for a doomed controller. I was using an Xbox one controller with the 8bitdo adapter, but it only stays connected for about 30 minutes and takes longer to connect. A ps4 connects faster and for longer, but it kept making my switch shut down completely. So I'm extremely with my pdp gamecube controller. Plus I main link in smash so it's cool that it has that design. Thank you for reading my novel!

[@belikeay8861]

I just like it when you talk , ur really funny ,thanks

[@michaeldarrach8274]

The OG GameCube controller will start your shield right when you press it, don’t have to press all the way down so travel time won’t matter on smash.

[@teriinekoyama1369]

Yeah, those shoulder triggers don't poll strictly at 1 or 0, instead traveling between 1 and 0 based on how far you push down.

[@666Abe666]

Thats where i noticed that this guy has no idea what he is talking about

[@misterkeebler]

It's less about the travel for activation as much as it's annoying to have a button travel so far that you have to use so often. It's very much usable. It just has no real use in a fighting game.

[@evileyeball]

Analog triggers with a Digital button in the bottom, Games can (and sometimes did in the gamecube days) map both to different functions.

[@ln8496]

If you do press it all the way down the buffer can keep it pressed after you release it

Muchas gracias por describir cada control 😊😀, ahora sé que controles comprar para jugar más cómodo al Smash.

You said that wasn’t a scientific approach but it was. You took a very scientific approach with the tools available. Props.

[@climatectrl3350]

Satisfye grip helps a lot in portable mode as far as the right joystick goes. The buttons are still somewhat annoying but at least I'm not cramping my thumb trying to flick the analog stick to do a special.

[@spencersegler]

I have the same grip and it's awesome!

[@javierzuniga4697]

For the game cube controller adapter you don’t need the grey USB port, that one is supposedly for vibration, so you can take it off and it would still work.

[@dragamezthezgamer3710]

I picked a GameCube remote from hori today and it feels great. Took some time to get used to but with this remote I can use certain characters better!

Was going to get the wireless power A one..but that PDP with swappable C stick looks very nice

[@shajack34]

Keep in mind you don’t need use the two USBs for the switch adapter. The grey one just turns on the rumble, which isn’t always needed

[@WyvernDotRed]

I actually use the HORI one for CTR, and even though Y to brake feels a bit strange, it works just fine playing with the d-pad and switched trigger buttons.

[@CrusaderEm]

I got that same PDP controller, as I prefer wired controllers. A few problems I had with it were that the joystick area is huge compared to the other controllers. You have to move the stick roughly 50% further to fully tilt. Also, the most glaring problem, after about a month of playing with it, tilting the left stick to the right to walk, made me instead... attack left... And taping left made me walk slowly. I'm not rough with my controllers at all, and that thing broke almost immediately. I'm using the wireless controller now and have had no issues. 👍

[@Racquetballerkevin]

I have the powerA controller and I love it. ONE major problem though is i went to a tournament and it was a major pain to connect it every time I switched stations. It also kept connecting to the other console and I had to start taking the batteries out so that i would not interrupt the other players. I went back to the cord.

[@YamiKisara_]

I have one and the L stick rubber has started to rub off after just several hours of use. I may have to return it or get a replacement.

[@Racquetballerkevin]

It plays just like the Pro controller. Actually the switch thinks that it is a pro controller and not a game cube controller. @Griff -

[@sho0m64]

Yo Wulff Den, nice video! Just fyi: you just need to plug the black cable from the Wii U/Switch Gamecube Adapter into the Switch Dock. The grey one is for the rumble only. So you are able to plug in 2 Adapters to have 8 player Gamecube controller matches. ;)

[@Anonymous58815]

Retro Fighters has a new GameCube controller coming out this year, and I'm on the waitlist for that, so we'll see how it is. They have both staggered and parallel variants.

[@woooyeahfunkytime4088]

a note to anyone watching currently: the pdp controller is both ridiculously priced in most cases and also, when notched in the downright/downleft notch, in ultimate specifically, it will walk forward as opposed to the normal GCC which makes you crouch and still inputs a downward angled f-tilt when you press A. i also had this problem on multiple Power A wired controllers after about a month or two of heavy use each. never had this issue with any OEM controller
