On top of the Mario, Peach, and Yoshi ones, all are $25:

Not bad! Now give me a Pikachu one!

Jakoo · Oct 23, 2014

This seems like such a niche thing to make so many customized versions of. They must be really banking on the fact that Smash Brother for Wii U is going to be a big seller, which I suppose it will be. Love that Wario one.

hwy_61 · Oct 23, 2014

Oh my fuck that DK one...

WonderzL · Oct 23, 2014

So cool, haha. I wish they were actually GC controllers from Nintendo, though. I don't get why these exist.

Lotta Wii controllers out there.

SovanJedi · Oct 23, 2014

That Wario one looks cool.

18-Volt · Oct 23, 2014

The Link one should have been gold instead of green.

Hero of Legend · Oct 23, 2014

I'm shocked these didn't happen 5 years ago. Especially after Nintendo put out the original revision which nixed GC support.

AnkiRendan · Oct 23, 2014

Where the hell is Pikachu? How about a Toon Link version?!

Hot Coldman · Oct 23, 2014

where's the Waluigi controller

iamaustrian · Oct 23, 2014

I have to ask: Who is PDP and are they reliable?
aka are the controllers good (quality)?

They look awesome. especially the DK, Metroid and Link ones.

Nintendojitsu · Oct 23, 2014

The Samus one will be mine. Pikachu and Kirby need to be in the next batch.

Cuphead · Oct 23, 2014

I wish these weren't so damn ugly

DK one look ok

nullset2 · Oct 23, 2014

DONG EXPANDED

OmegaSmash · Oct 23, 2014

This makes the GC controller adapter being Smash only hurt less.

Rich! · Oct 23, 2014

Why buy these when you could buy the hori one, which is guaranteed to be far better quality?

Hero Prinny · Oct 23, 2014

they all look so cheap and fake.

PDP was Pelican, who made Monster Brain for Pokemon GSC.

They make good stuff IMO.

Inferno313 · Oct 23, 2014

Am I the only one bothered by the inconsistent selection of renders? DK, Link, Samus are their Smash renders. Peach's is from 3D World. Wario's is from Wario World I think. I think that's a standard generic Mario render, and I'm not sure what the Yoshi is from.

Just use all the Smash renders.

I'm probably OCD or something.

ILoveBish · Oct 23, 2014

I hope I can get them on clearance at one point, would love one of each.

SerTapTap · Oct 23, 2014

Still don't like how they look but the Samus and Link ones are a bit better.

Dragoshi1 · Oct 23, 2014

Yoshi's should have been light/lime green with the white on the other side.

Thanks for the info
appreciated

Crimsonclaw111 · Oct 23, 2014

Samus... I need it. Are these any good or are they shitty?

SegaShack · Oct 23, 2014

3rd party controllers? No way will I buy.

Mory Dunz · Oct 23, 2014

I think Blue sticks would look cool on Link's.

Dicer · Oct 23, 2014

I've always wanted a shit colored controller, no more making them from scratch...

Rich! · Oct 23, 2014

Buy this instead:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ND0E5ZU/?tag=neogaf0e-20

Same price, same function, but its far better. Officially licenced too, and superb build quality that rivals the real gc controllers.

Timeless · Oct 23, 2014

Don't be fooled. Just because it looks like a GameCube controller does not mean it will have the same build quality. I'm sticking with Nintendo's Smash Bros.-branded GC controllers.

The hori one I posted above has the same build quality as the real thing.

kittens · Oct 23, 2014

These are all horrendous.

Something more subtle like the N3DS faceplates would be cool.

You're my hero. That looks bad ass.

A shame about no GCN plug though... Guess I could always mod my U and install Nintendon't. Are the triggers analog?

Looks like it has the bad C-Stick though.

Nope, not analog. But it doesnt matter, the rest is absolute quality and far better than the PDP shit in the OP. And it will work perfectly with nintendont.

Anyone with any sense would buy the hori pad, not PDP.

udivision said:

Then open it up and swap it with one from a classic controller, nunchuck or a gamecube controllers left analog. It uses the same fitting, most likely.

Have you tried games with analog trigger controls? Still manageable without the analog?

Thank you for posting this, didn't even know it existed. Luigi looks sick.

Rogue Leader and Mario Sunshine obviously will suffer but everything else is going to be OK and work with it fine, as its a classic controller. I use the Wii U Pro Controller to play my Gamecube games on the Wii U and I've had no issues yet.

I haven't actually got one, its not out yet. But Hori is as good as you are ever going to get. Their N64 Mini controller is the stuff of legends.

Stilton Disco · Oct 23, 2014

Already getting the peach one because I have the matching wiimote and love garish colours, and will definitely get the Wario one due to my favourite colours being yellow and purple.

Should just about be able to resist the rest.

QueenOfThorns · Oct 23, 2014

All of these look really cool but I still wish they'd just make one that works as a Wii U Pro controller and has clicky sticks. I'd love to have one that works with all the modern games too.

The price for one of these is also the stuff of legends.

I bought one for just over £30 last year.

Yes I've had great experience with Hori. Pretty much 2nd party pads.

TheSlySoul · Oct 23, 2014

The Samus controller is pretty neat.
I am still only getting the Luigi Hori GC controller. Still cool though!

That's actually tempting given how legit CCP are rather expensive and I need something for my Wii VC games

Ebay. Blue one, good condition. Since sold it, made a profit actually.
