Those aren't Gamecube controllers, they're Wii controllers that look like GC controllers. To actually use one you'd have to plug it into a Wiimote. It'll work on Smash 4, but I'm not sure they'll be supported in Ultimate.

As an alternative, you could try looking for one of these:

https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Pikachu-Wired-Fight-500-100/dp/B07GXB9GW9/

They're new Switch controllers that are GC styled. You can connect them directly to your Switch using the USB ports, no need for an adapter. They probably aren't as cheap as the controllers you found, but they're cheaper than the official GC controllers and they'll definitely work.

If you want a recommendation, get the Hori. That's the only one I've got, and although it's stiffer than the original GCs it's a good product.

Boy did you start looking at the perfect time,

PowerA wired Gamecube pro

HORI wired Gamecube pro

PDP wired Gamecube pro

All of them do not have rumble or gyro, both thumbsticks are clickable and there is a Left shoulder Z button.

The biggest differences would be the designs, PDP and HORI are all themed, while PowerA is normal gamecube colors.

The PDP controller also has swappable thumbsticks for the right stick, you can have two normal thumbsticks or a regular gamecube C-stick nub.

The PowerA controller cable is also detachable.

Thanks, I’d be interested in that also. Is this it? Also, how do GameCube games run on it? Pretty good?
