I am so incredibly grateful that this came out when it did, because I had been wanting a modded gamecube controller for the lingest time. Thanks to you guys, I got to get a higher end gamecube controller built for me and on a quick notice too!! Honestly, I thought that shipping would take maybe until january because it needed to be built to my request, but to my surprise, the tuesday following the weekend (when I purchased it)
I got the email saying my package was sent out to the delivery facilities. Whatever you guys are doing in your location to do these orders that quickly, keep it up!!!!!!! I would 100% buy it again should the necessity arise.
You're welcome and we appreciate the excellent review. :) Happy gaming!
To start, I got this for my 17 year old son who competes. He’s been through quite a few smash 4 and ultimate game cube controllers with both no and slight modifications. This controller is by far the best in terms of functionality, response, no drift, etc.
It connects instantly whether we set it up wirelessly or through the USB C. The grip, firmness, and feel is great as it’s slightly different from a standard GC controller, but ends up feeling better after an hour or so of use. At 37, I’ve even come to enjoy it more than regular GC controllers as well as the Switch Pro and Switch Pro 2s. The ease of maneuvering the control stick is like butter being so incredibly smooth and with zero snap back that we’ve experienced. I do wish there was more notice about the battery getting low, but that’s really just a personal preference.
It’s also extremely durable both with dropping it hard down our wooden stair case and even fully submerging it in water for over an hour (both obviously unintentional). So about a month of continuous use and making the mistake of leaving it on my comforter, my wife somehow missed it as she went to wash our blankets. Upon finishing the wash and moving them to the dryer, there it was noticed the controller was somehow bundled in with them and made it through a full heavy duty cycle. I ended up removing the battery, and just let it sit out to dry with a fan blowing on it. After 2 full days, I reconnected the battery and it turned on with no apparent issues. I went through all the functionality testing using the app, and everything looked perfect and exactly as before. Connected it, and it’s been flawless for over almost 2 months now, utilizing it with our switches/switch 2s and public switches at locals.
So I definitely recommend it. Everything they state on this website is no exaggeration and completely accurate from what we’ve experienced. In fact, I’m currently back on here ordering my 2nd controller.
And just so there’s no skepticism or anything similar, we have zero affiliation with these dudes from HHL. Never knew this controller even existed until seeing it discussed after a google search and just went for it. They did not ask me or push for a review and honestly never do these. But after having such a great experience and jumping back on here for my second, I decided to share.
Lastly (and this is the most important thing I have include), this is firmly, bar none, and the most accurate, we have the best looking controller with the color combination, buttons, lighting, etc available. No bias. Factually, objectively , and indisputably true. :)
