PLEASE READ - 5/16/24:

GameCube extension cables are known to bend the pins on the controller connector. Similar products that cause this damage include the Raphnet GameCube to N64 adapter. Controllers will often times remain functional, but the pins become un-seated from the plastic which allows them to get pushed in further.

If you have previously used a controller with one of these extensions or products, the Pocket Adapter will bend the pins in your plug to an unusable state. We recommend swapping your cable if you have used any of these products with your controller.

This adapter allows you to use your original GameCube controller on your PC and Nintendo Switch for all types of gaming. Supports up to 4 controllers simultaneously. 

This is a kit which requires some assembly. You only need a Torx T6 Screwdriver to assemble this adapter.

USB-C to USB-A cable (required for operation) is not included. We have cables available here.

This adapter is also compatible with USB-C to USB-C type devices such as Android phones.

Great device if planning to use a Gamecube Controller on almost anything!

Will start with the good! This definitely works with my PC, AS WELL AS my Steam Deck! However for the Steam Deck, it only works via the Xinput setting. (if you try and use, say Slippi mode, it shows up in the settings but it doesn't actually read the controller, weirdly enough, even though with Xinput it does the same thing, but actually does read all 4 slots too) So if you want to play Rivals of Aether 2 through the Steam Deck for example, it WILL read your inputs like an Xbox controller instead of a Gamecube Controller. (but haven't seen any issues otherwise with this)

It's very small, so much more portable than the Nintendo or Mayflash adapters, the only thing is you DO have to tinker and DIY it, which while not much of a tinkerer personally (although I do own an electronic screwdriver set) so it took me about an hour to do, (due to the metal balls not wanting to stay put haha...) it was well worth it.

Big note though, the screws that are required to **** in are NOT normal Phillips screws or flatheads, and the order does NOT come with a small screwdriver to do it with, only reason I could do it immediately is due to having my electronics screwdriver set that I mentioned above, so be aware of that! (they are "drive" screws, and I believe I had to use a 1.3mm screwdriver setting to get them in)

The only "big" issue I had was that one of the sockets to plug a Gamecube controller in was loose, but considering I plan to only use it for myself, MAYBE 1v1, it's not a big deal to me, but could be if someone else got a loose socket. (I'm not much of a doubles person, so 2v2 most likely won't happen anyways lol). No idea why this occurred as I tried tinkering a bit more and it didn't get fixed, but the other 3 sockets ARE actually secure, and chances of me using all 4 sockets are again, low. (but again, not much of a tinkerer either, so it most likely is just be my side being at fault, not the device itself)

DEFINITELY recommend though if playing Smash, Rivals of Aether (2) or any platform fighter, or just like the feel of the Gamecube controller in general! (which makes sense if you do, since it is one of the few controllers that have a non-circle gate for more precise movement in certain directions, instead of a normal circle around the sticks)

The small things

This isn't the best reason but the insert of the gb cables is too satisfying.
Much a god send they add extra equipment in the package so if your like me and drop the balls in the carpet your not screwed.
Worked great, and loving the reduced latency. Can really feel it.
Make sure the usb c you use carries data... seems kinda obvious but something to keep in mind.

Amazing

The building process was simple and explained very well. Updating the software was super easy. The device itself is extremely portable and easy to configure as well!

Amazing product and a wonderful alternative to all other adapters I've tried.
