Popular peripheral manufacturer HORI has confirmed today that it will be releasing a Link themed Super Smash Bros Gamecube controller in Europe in August and in the United States in September. The item is available to pre-order now from Amazon and will set you back $27.99. Here’s all the details you need to know before hitting the pre-order button.
- Officially licensed by Nintendo
- Perfect for Super Smash Bros, Super Mario 3D Land, Super Mario Kart 8, and Virtual Console titles for Wii U
- Features short stroke L and R buttons, 3 Turbo settings, and a large D-pad
- Similar in shape and function as the original Nintendo GameCube controller but plugs straight into the Wii U Remote!
- Compatible with Classic Controller, Classic Controller Pro supported titles and most Nintendo Virtual Console titles

Sliced Fried Gold.
What did the Turbo do on the controller exactly? I had a GameCube for years Zander never knew.
What the? Zander? How did it think I said that, I said and? Whatever.
Na na na na na na na BATMAN!
If you hold the turbo button and press another button (let’s say A), then release both. Now hold the A button, and it will activate many times a second, depending on what number you set it to.
Hori’s controllers are said to be the absolute best controllers for Smash, even better than the real GCN controllers because of the short stroke L/R Buttons.
Also it works with Super Mario 3D *World, not Land.
I was gonna be an ass and say that this controller was a lie when I saw 3D Land but I see Neweegee already corrected them.
Super Mario Kart 8 confirmed! 3DS games coming to the Wii U! The XDS is real!
Super Mario 3D Land and Super Mario Kart 8 are my favourite Wii U games.
If only more games used the GameCube controller then it would be worth getting. If not then its just a waste.
Can the turbo be used for an unfair advantage in smash Bros? If so I want no part in this lol
It’s just a classic controller. You can use it for any game that supports classic controllers. Also you can. Use it for Wii games on the Wii U to give you a Cube style controller for Mario Kart Wii and Brawl.
Well, it acts the same as a classic controller. But it’s not really a classic controller. It’s a Gamecube controller.
hmm don´t think so cause it says 20 as max and I think that means 20 button presses per 10 seconds so thats like nothing cause you can easily mash up to 30 times as an normal human and some people even get around 45 mashes per 10 secs so I don´t think one cane abuse it
would you need a gamecube adapter? or will it plug into your wii Remote? :o
nvm i read the description :p
