It’s straight up a standard Gamecube controller but colored to match a Wii. The cord for it seems to be about 10ft which (if I recall correctly) is much longer than the original Gamecube controller’s cord was. I’d recommend it for anyone who needs a Gamecube controller in general or if you’re looking for one for the Wii.

This is the official Nintendo Gamecube controller. This, obviously, can be used on the gamecube and also the Wii. This controller looks amazing in it’s clean, stylish white color. What is really nice about this certain colored gamecube controller is that it matches the Wii’s color, and more importantly, has a longer cable than the other colors.
This is overall a great purchase to anyone looking to play Gamecube games, and certain Wii games such as Super smash Bros. Brawl or Mario Kart Wii.

If there has ever been a controller out there that you have been looking for then look no further because this has got to be the best Gamecube controller I’ve ever found. It plays perfectly and the buttons are smooth; the L and R buttons click in fast without any real push from the springs. The 10ft( or 3m[or 9.8ft for those technical guys]) cord was a surprise to me, I didn’t even know it was going to be that long and really I’m glad it was. A long cord like that for controllers work well for where i play my games. This is a definite recommendation and I urge all those looking to buy a new controller to pick this up even if you think the price might not be worth it, just trust me cuz it truly is. You won’t regret buying this product.

Once we bought our Wii system, I found out that GameCube games worked on it also. I had never played GameCube so it opened up a whole new set of games for me. The only problem was finding a controller since the Wii remotes don’t work with Gamecube games.
I tried 2 other controllers prior to buying this one. One – a cordless variety – I purchased at Walmart. The controls were much too loose. It was hard to focus on any small object during game play. I also tried another variety that I purchased off Amazon – a cheap corded version. It was completely useless. I got so frustrated with trying to play that I gave up. Finally I spent the extra money and ordered the official Nentendo controller. It was well worth the extra money and I would have actually saved if I had bought it to begin with. It is lightweight. The cord is extra long which gives plenty of room to sit back from the television to play. The controls are very quick and very precise.
This is definitely the controller that you want to purchase for your GameCube games on Wii.

This is, in its essence, the GameCube controller. The only differences are that it has a much longer cord than the original one (10 ft, or 3m, about the length of the PS2′s, maybe longer), and it has been specially colored white for use with the Wii. I never owned a GameCube, but as soon as I started playing Wii the first GameCube game I purchased was The Legend of Zelda Collector’s Edition. Naturally, I needed a GCN controller to play, so I ventured to my local GameStop and bought a used black one. I thought it was great, but the short cord really made me use it less–especially since I eventually purchased the WaveBird.
I decided to give this one a try, and for my first test played Brawl. It was simply fantastic. The actual product is a Japanese import straight from Nintendo, and the box and instructions are all in Japanese (save for the obligatory English titles). That’s not much of a bad thing since all you really have to do is plug and play, and everything on the controller is in English.
I sold the black one to help fund this, and it was well worth the extra money, if just for the longer cord. I can sit far back from the TV as I do with the WaveBird, but now with one longed-for feature: rumble (or vibration). I was hesitant in purchasing this because other reviews didn’t mention rumble, but I guess I should’ve known since this is Nintendo’s original GCN controller, redesigned for the Wii by making it with a longer cord and in white. The white color really adds some dash and goes well with a white Wii. Though I personally wish Nintendo would come out with a WaveBird 2 with rumble (or just the regular controller, but wireless), this is pretty much the next best thing.
Yes, this controller really makes that much difference for Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Mario Kart Wii.
