Gamecube Controller, Classic Wired Controller for Wii Nintendo Gamecube (Purple)

There is a small amount of stick drift, but these controllers are so cost effective that it doesn’t even matter. Works perfect.

Been about a month and a half and works perfectly on my Wii to play my GameCube games. Not having any drifting problems on the controller that some people had. Crossing my fingers it stays that way. Dont remember what oem feels like but these work well

Yes, they are cheap and yes the feel cheap. Yes, they have some stick drift, could be a lot could be a bit, pure luck on that but theres a BUT on this, more details ahead. I ordered 2 of these and one of them was faulty right out of the box, the L trigger got stuck and that input was locked in. Now, if you are the kind of people that will get your money's worth out of cheap stuff, such as me, you will put some effort to fix these. I opened both of them and fixed several issues to the point that they now feel absolutely awesome and reliable AF, I fixed my stick drift and trigger problem using some glue to fixed pieces in place, which I found out is the real problem with these cheap controllers. Some small pieces might be loose, once you fixed them in place, the controller feels as it should. I recommend them if you have real experience with controllers and dealing with their insides and have no problem investing some time to enhance them. Otherwise, just look elsewhere.

Stickiness and connectivity off

Great controller and my daughter loves it. Works as designed and color is as described. Great cord length, no lag, buttons are springy with no stickiness and it's actually compatible with our gamecube! Winning.

Lasted one hour. Feels okay but the controller is the worst I've ever purchased in 25 years of gaming.D pad broke after one game of smash this is Junk not even worth my time to return this garbage product.

The FIOTOK Wired GameCube Controller is a third-party gamepad designed in the classic GameCube style.

While it may not satisfy hardcore Smash players, it’s more than capable for most uses.

I just got this today, so I may update this if something goes wrong again haha. I got this controller because my legit controller was starting to get mushy buttons from playing Ultimate for so long. I lost my tri-wing and didn't want to go through the pain of taking it apart, so I went through the pain of a third party controller instead. I played a few matches today with it, so this review is probably most helpful for people who want to play Smash. Versus the official controller: -The buttons are significantly snappier (more resistant), so short hops with the X and Y buttons are harder to do, and sliding from Y/X to A to do those short hop aerials are more uncomfortable. You can still do wavelanding and rar bairs and whatever with it. It's just uncomfortable lol. I found my official controller's mushy buttons more comfortable than this one's snappy buttons, but time will tell if I can break in this one and it'll be better. -The buttons are flat on the top, so you can feel the edge of the buttons more. I didn't even notice that the official controller's XY buttons are slightly domed until I felt this one's XY buttons. -The Z button isn't soft. In the official controller, the Z button is held up a little bit outside of the shell by a piece metal. In this one, it clicks. I also do short hops by Z, and though doable with this controller, I have to slide on less of the Z button to do them, or else I full hop. -The D-pad doesn't register as many inputs. I fear this may be the same case for all the buttons, but I was playing on wifi so I wouldn't know. -The control stick is made of a material that feels like a pencil eraser. I don't mind this, but it's not as soft. The c-stick is again flatter on the top than the original, and again not as soft. The octagonal gates are also more pronounced, which is a preferential thing. I like it. -The L/R triggers are digital so you can't short hop with them (and you can't light shield in melee, probably). -The paint on the shell isn't as smooth, but that's a very very minuscule detail. If you play Smash for fun or just want to play Gamecube games without any highly technical detail, this is a wonderful controller. It's a really cute color and it works nicely. I can see myself playing Sonic Adventure 2 Battle with this. But all the small differences in the build of this controller (the snapping, the awkward flat buttons) will really add up on you if you try to do anything else with it. Also, given the amount of reviews stating that it just dies randomly, this isn't the kind of controller you'd want to bring to a tournament. I'm going to keep playing matches with this for the sake of science, and I'll update if anything turns up.
