This recent BattlerGC Pro controller looks prefer it could be the ultimate GameCube gamepad – featuring drift-resistant Hall-effect joysticks, hybrid analog/digital triggers, programmable back buttons, a chargeable battery with a USB-C port, and the ability to apply it to a spread of consoles and systems due to Bluetooth support. And of course, it’s the newest controller with the best face button layout ever, and I’ll fight to defend it until Final Destination!
However, I realize that the GameCube controller layout is not to everyone’s liking, so it’s no surprise that there aren’t many great, modern GameCube controllers on the market beyond the licensed PowerA controller, which runs on AA batteries, which is my current solution for docked gaming on the Switch . Most fans have official GameCube controllers and use Bluetooth adapters or converters to play Smash Bros. games. on Nintendo consoles.
The BattlerGC Pro, nevertheless, is a totally upgraded GameCube controller, featuring a 2.4 GHz GameCube controller dongle for the mother console, Wii and Wii U (with a USB to GameCube adapter), but additionally has a turn on back to rework right into a Bluetooth controller, which works on PC or Nintendo Switch and not using a USB adapter.
Retro Fighters, the controller’s manufacturer, also has a non-Pro BattlerGC controller for $44.99, which has no back buttons and no built-in Bluetooth. (The set includes two dongles to work on different consoles). It also lacks the Hall effect sticks that the Pro version has.
BattlerGC Pro pre-order will be available on May 1 at 9 a.m. PT (12 p.m. ET) and can cost $59.99. For those preferring transparent housings to the classic indigo color, Retro Fighters has prepared a special, limited edition of the crystal version of the controller – only 2,000 pieces will be available.
