EXLENE Gamecube Controller Switch, Wireless Switch Pro Controller for Nintendo Switch/Lite/PC/Android/Ios/Steam, Support Wake Up, Motion, Adjustable Vibration, Turbo & Auto Turbo (Upgraded,Blue)

Very solid controller with contemporary improvements to the Gamecube layout. I primarily use this controller for playing Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition, and Gamecube games via Dolphin emulator (PC).IMPORTANT for BLUETOOTH:To connect to PC via Bluetooth, on your PC (tested on Windows 10) navigate to Settings --> Bluetooth & Other Devices.Select 'Add Bluetooth or other device".Hold Home to put the controller in search mode as an Xbox controller. [OR] press Home + X to put it in search mode as a Nintendo Pro Controller to take advantage of gyro and other Switch configurations.- Works on Nintendo Switch and Steam out of the box.- Wired and wireless communication. (Wireless requires separate Bluetooth dongle for PC.)- Includes all additional buttons (L3, R3, L, and -).- C-Stick has a cap/wider lip for better camera control.- D-Pad is slightly bigger and more responsive and comfortable to press with less resistance.- Center buttons have a slightly different layout than pictured (at the time of purchase).[-] (+)(o) (H) (T)- Documentation needs MUCH improvement. I had to figure out a lot of functionality myself.- Connectivity lights are placed below the center buttons and are hidden when looking straight at the controller. A huge plus for me since I don't like being distracted by them while playing in the dark.- Shoulder buttons ZR/ZL are digital and are easier to press but do not support analog variation necessary for some games (Super Mario Sunshine). Shielding is faster/easier in Smash Bros.- Material is matte and doesn't become as slick with sweat nearly as easily.- Rumble works well. Can press Turbo + [+] and [-] to adjust rumble strength.- Battery life is long, lasted me the whole week of regular play and charges fast.- Allegedly includes gyro/motion controls. Have not yet tested this feature out as it's not a common feature outside Splatoon 2 and DOOM (2016).Cons/Concerns:- First controller I received, the ZR button didn't always register. I was able to return and replace it quickly and easily. Took 2 days to get to me. Second controller had no issues.- Controller is recognized as an XBOX 360 controller on Steam which means it cannot utilize gyro. I don't know a work around for this yet. This seems to be a problem exclusively with a wired connection though I'm unable to test with Bluetooth at the moment.- Kind of annoying, the shoulder buttons are labeled like an XBOX controller. The R, L, ZR, and ZL buttons are labeled as RB, LB, R, and L respectively. Function is the same, but could be confusing on Switch.- There's a tiny hole just above the Exlene logo on the back. At first I thought it was a manufacturing error, but both controllers I received had them and some promo pictures do as well. I'm unsure what this is for. Perhaps a factory reset button?- The inclusion of Turbo makes this controller not eligible for tournament play and has very minimal use. I'd prefer if it were left off.- I do not know how long this controller will last. I hope to use it regularly for a few years. I bought the extended warranty. I will report back if this becomes an issue.Overall, very good controller and am very happy with it.

The GameCube controller is my favorite controller of all time, and I've more than gotten my money's worth out of this controller. From Tears of the Kingdom alone I've put close to three hundred hours into it. Still working great.My only issue has been failed attempts to pair it with my Mac. It's entirely possible I'm just doing something wrong. But I've tried to use it in OpenEmu and never had any success pairing it to the computer. But again, that might just be me not looking deep enough into the issue. I'm not sure.

First thing you gotta know before buying this controller is that it's not a true gamecube style controller. This is a switch pro controller shaped like a gamecube controller. All that really changes from what I've seen is added buttons compared to the GC controller (good, yay), and the triggers aren't analog triggers (less good, maybe?). Some games might work better with that, I'd go research it a little. I knew that when I bought the controller so that's not my point of contention, just a warning. I personally am not a huge fan, just because the triggers don't press in as much, but that's more of an opinion.When I first got the controller, it was a little stiff. Some of the buttons gave some resistance to being pressed in, and the joysticks didn't really want to move very quickly. This mostly is going away by just wearing it in.As part of that, the sticks seemed to have another problem. When I first got it, the sticks seemed like they didn't want to go far enough to output the maximum value. I don't know if I just wore it in like the buttons, but there's also a chance it was just in my head.I actually was going to give a much worse review, because it's been less than 2 days and one of the triggers didn't want to be pressed properly. As I was typing, I checked a gamepad tester again and it was working just fine. I think what happened is I just accidently turned on turbo mode for that button. Whoopsie. Don't be stupid like me. I think the buttons on the box are laid out differently than on the actual controller but they all work fine.I had a few hiccups with connecting the controller, but it wasn't too bad. I've only used it with my pc, so far, so I can't speak for other platforms. I'm mainly using wired mode right now, but I have gotten it to connect via bluetooth. Haven't gotten my game to recognize the controller using bluetooth, but it's also a very developmental game, and I haven't spent too much time trying.To summarize, out of the box you might not be impressed. However, most of my issues seemed to go away after a day or 2. All in all it's a good controller. Not perfect, but it hasn't given me any real issues. If the controller just spontaneously breaks or something in the near future, I'll probably update my review. Anything too distant would just be because of extended use.
