More GameCube Controllers for Nintendo Switch 1/2From a customization perspective, the Warrior and Warrior Lite are the most impressive GameCube-style controllers we've tried, but there are other GameCube controllers for Switch and Switch 2 that offer a more authentic experience.As mentioned, Nintendo's wireless GameCube controller for Switch 2 is as close to the original as you'll find. It feels almost exactly like the original, just without the cable and with a few extra small buttons on the top: C button for GameChat, home/menu buttons, and a small ZL button to make up for the fact the GameCube controller only had one shoulder button. But while this is best option for GameCube games on Switch Online, the aforementioned tiny ZL button makes it less than ideal for modern games.Officially licensed GameCube-style controllers from PowerA and Hori add Nintendo-inspired designs and have modernized shoulder and trigger layouts. The form factor of these controllers is closer to the original GameCube controller, as they have slimmer profiles compared to the NYXI Warrior. If you want to go the officially licensed route, PowerA's Wireless Controller themed around Toad from Super Mario Bros. is $64.39 (was $70). For a cheaper wireless alternative, Hori makes a Zelda-themed Battle Pad for $50.If you don't mind a wire, you can't beat Amazon's deal on the PowerA Wired Controller featuring Bowser's logo.PowerA Wired Controller (Bowser) -- $16.79 ($28)PowerA Wireless Controller (Toad) -- $64.39 ($70)Hori Wireless Battle Pad (Zelda) -- $50Official Nintendo GameCube Controller (Switch 2) -- $70Hori Wired Battle PadsLuigi (Translucent Green) -- $29Mario (Translucent Red) -- $29Princess Peach (Translucent Pink) -- $28.71The Legend of Zelda (Black) -- $33.60Pokemon: Pikachu (Yellow) -- $42PowerA and Hori GameCube-inspired Switch 1/2 controllers GameCube Controller Adapters for Switch 1/2 and PCIf you want to use an actual GameCube controller--with the GC connector instead of USB--it's possible on Switch and Switch 2 with the help of an adapter.If you purchase a wired GameCube controller or have an old one in a drawer somewhere, you can use it on Switch and Switch 2 with the help of an adapter.
