Fast inputs, long chord, good quality, feels and looks great. My original concern with this controller was that the pre-order date said it would arrive on Christmas, over two weeks after the release of Super Smash Bros Ultimate. Fortunately, it arrived yesterday, giving me time to get used to the feel of the controller before December 7th.
When comparing it side by side to the official controller that came with my Gamecube, the only difference that I can feel is the plastic it's made with. Some of the reviews for this controller have said that the plastic feels cheaper but I personally prefer the new material. The plastic on this controller feels a lot less likely to gather grease or marks after long play sessions.
Many of the 1-2 star reviews have very different issues with their controllers. Some are complaining about slow inputs, low quality triggers, and some people are having trouble with getting it to work on emulators. I've had none of these problems. Maybe I just got lucky with the one I was shipped but overall, I'm very satisfied with it.

(SSBU) GameCube Controller review by jaleel

Scared that they were drifting but found something out
Ok so when I first got this controller I was hoping to the gods that my controller was good and had no drift like others were talking about and when I plugged it in to my wii and tested out how good it was my heart SANK. It was literally worse than my old controller!I didn't want to give up tho so I double checked with dolphin emu and I found out it was actually perfect! Even my old one had no drift but the circle it made wasn't as perfect as the New Ultimate Controller. (I wasn't able to check for drift in the dolphin menus itself so I hope at least the f-zero gx test was good enough)I did check on melee if my controller had snapback and yes it does but it doesn't really matter because I believe snapback is more important for serious melee players.Remember to check the controller on multiple platforms and also try resetting the controller by pressing [Y, X, START] together so you know for certain if your controller has drift or not.Great controller feel overall and will feel much better when I break into the controller. The triggers do feel a little weird and it could be because of the missing trigger plugs but other than that the buttons feel great along with the stick! See you all on December 7th!!
