Got this after seeing how the Retro Fighters' take on this wasn't received as well. I'm happy to say it doesn't fail to put a smile on my face. It even works on my phone! :)

    • Simply put, it's a fantastic product.
Style: Adapter
This product is amazing. I had looked at it before but didn't really understand what it is. This product turns wired controllers into wireless Bluetooth controllers that can connect to the Switch or to Windows. On the one side you can plug in a wired GameCube controller. On the other side you can plug in any controller that uses the type of plug found on the bottom of the WiiMote (but obviously not the Nunchuk attachment), which include Wii Pro Controllers, NES Classic Controllers, and SNES Classic Controllers. But, you may say, not all of those controllers have the same buttons as the Switch controllers. And this is where the buttons on the GBros Adapter come in handy. It has the buttons that you lack for the Switch. For example the GameCube controller maps the start button to the Plus button, and the red button on the GBros is the minus button. But how does it work? I hooked up my wired GameCube controller and played Smash Brothers on my Switch. It was glorious. No noticeable lag and I layed the law down and delivered a sound beating to computer controlled characters for a couple of hours. (Granted I had them on a low setting, but even then multiple characters can get chaotic. Besides, I was looking to give a beat down not me challenged. But even when I upped the challenge the GBros Adapter was flawless.) Fun, fun, fun. I highly recommend this product. I have four now. Someone may counter that you can use the GameCube adapter for the Switch. I have that product and it works just fine. But I have to borrow my WaveBird receivers to make that happen wirelessly, which is okay but still a little cumbersome. I also have to use up the two USB ports on the Switch. The GBros Adapter is just quicker and cleaner to get going on my Switch. It doesn't mean I am against using the GameCube ports unit at all. I have one for my Wii U and my Switch. It's a great little product. But getting to turn my wired controllers into Bluetooth Wireless controllers is just priceless. Plus it gives me options as well because I have 3 different types of Wii Pro Controllers. And it can be used on Windows as well. If you're on the fence, buy one. Connect it up. Play some Smash Bros or whatever game you like that uses a pro style controller. Let the smile on your face make your decision for you. ... show more

    • Awesome product, questionable quality control
Style: Adapter
I ordered one, it arrived and I put new batteries in. Two minutes after I connect it to a Switch, it gives the "low battery" warning. Annoying, but it works. A couple of minutes later, my Z and R switch places. Weird? I reconfigure my Smash profile. Another couple minutes and they switch places back. Okay, this is getting annoying. I switch them back. And all this time I keep getting "low battery" messages every minute. Something is definitely wrong. I ordered a replacement and immediately set it up with new batteries and tried using it. It now works perfectly, very responsive and no misinputs. Also, no "low battery" message (it did show up after a couple of hours, probably when the battery was actually starting to die). Awesome! If you get these kind of errors, you have a faulty unit, and you should order a replacement! I'm glad to be protected by Amazon in these cases. ... show more

    • Best 20 bucks I've spent in a while
Style: Adapter
This thing is hands down awesome. As soon as I got it, I hooked it up to a third-party gamecube controller I bought years ago to play Mario Kart Wii, and went straight to work throwing down in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. I mean seriously, setup was super easy; I just popped in two AA batteries, plugged in my controller, followed the instructions to a tee, and within 30 seconds it was ready to go. I had no connectivity issues, and I tried it with a number of different controllers over several days. Here are my main points: —When I first got this adapter, L and R functioned as grab buttons in SSBU, with Z being the shield button, so in my first match I ended up grabbing someone when I meant to sidestep. However, by pressing L, R, A, B, and START all at the same time, it switches the button mapping, such that L and R become shield and Z becomes grab. I switched back and forth several times before I decided that I liked that latter mapping better. —The adapter DOES have buttons on it which function as home and screenshot buttons on the switch, which was a pleasant surprise. —I tried this adapter with both a third-party controller and a new SSB edition gamecube controller, and both performed flawlessly in match after match of SSBU. —The switch recognizes the adapter as a pro controller, so one can play any game that a pro controller can be used for. —I love to play Super Mario Kart on the SNES, so I was really excited to try playing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe with an SNES classic controller, and it was everything I hoped it to be. —While the SNES classic controllers performed perfectly in Mario Kart, they do not work for SSBU. You know how on a pro controller you use the arrow-pad to taunt? Well guess what—SNES controllers don't have a knob, just an arrow pad, so all I could do was taunt and spam my neutral. 😂 —Perhaps the most interesting thing I did was use a Nunchuck to play SSBU. You can use the knob to move around and jump, and you can use the buttons on the back to do both standard and special attacks, you just can't taunt, shield or grab; so, it might work for you if you're going against a bunch of newbies. —The only thing I had concerns about before purchasing this controller was that some of the reviews made it sound like you have to download software to set it up; this is simply not the case. Like I said, I literally had it connected within seconds of unboxing. To sum it all up, I haven't played a switch game with anything but a gamecube or SNES classic controller in about a week. ... show more
