Review on ๐Ÿ‘ HORI Nintendo Switch Battle Pad (Peach) - Officially Licensed GameCube Style Controller for Nintendo Switch by Luxme Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Major improvement on the stock GC controller

After the release of Smash Ultimate I wanted a GameCube style controller with fewer analog shoulder buttons and ideally a smaller trigger on the left stick. This controller has both! It feels good to hold in my hands and I really feel like my 1v1 combat has improved since I've been using it. Some prefer the longer pressure of the original GC controller, but this one suits my style better. Fast, responsive movement and protection. It was designed with reversed shoulder buttons. So if you want to get what you want, hold down the front L and R buttons while plugging it in and release when you see a red light on the front. If the red light is on, you have the correct installation. Luckily, you only have to do this once and the controller will remember your settings. Apparently HORI flipped the buttons without understanding what Nintendo would do with the button remapping. Overall I really recommend this if your needs are similar to mine. Solid and responsive.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Available in white only
