8BitDo Bluetooth Retro Receiver for NGC, Wii and Windows, Compatible with Xbox Series Controller, Xbox One Bluetooth Controller, Switch Pro and PS5/PS4 Controller

Works well with a Nintendo Wii and the Ultimate Controller when playing GameCube games. Slightly pricey but worth it due to the compatibility. Good response time and connectivity. Highly recommend.

Pairs perfectly with my 8bitdo ultimate controller to play MKWii.

Really happy with this dongle, being limited to controller lead length was a nightmare but now i can comfortably sit on my settee and play my gamecube fine

Right out of the box this worked with Xbox Series controllers and Switch 1 Pro controllers. It pairs quite quickly. I couldn't get it to pair with PS4 or 5 pads, and I'm certain it would work after a firmware update, but you need a Windows PC for that. There are plenty of videos online explaining exactly how to connect it to a PC and how to do the update. The supplied USB to USBC cable is for updates, as the Receiver is powered directly from your GameCube. I played Ocarina of Time (GameCube collectors disc) with both pads that worked and the Pro controller was better. The Pro controller let me execute quick spin attacks easier, made walking slowly easier and made the shooting gallery doable (if you know you know). Basically playing an N64 port on GameCube is quite specific, as the tilt of the analogue stick and how it handles really matters. As for GameCube games using a Pro controller the stick and buttons worked well for Ikaruga, Metroid Prime 2 and Wind Waker, though I didn't play far enough on Wind Waker to see if the Z button worked. I tried Twin Snakes which seemed pretty good at first but then started to jitter when I tried first person view and I couldn't seem to access my codec. I tried Resident Evil 3 and the D pad was a lot nicer than the tiny one on a standard GameCube pad, however I did have to get used to a different button layout. I can't award this 5 stars because the latest firmware was not loaded from the start, but it is easy to use and does what I want it to. EDIT: I forgot to mention that the input lag is very minimal if any, and the pad is pretty good in this regard for casual play.

Works while charging, pressed the connect button on my xbox series x controller and the button on the connector and it worked instantly, really smooth and responsive.

Easy to setup, works a treat, picked up my PS5 pad no problems at all. Happy times.

I recently bought the 8bitdo gamecube mod kit to make my official controller wireless while still having rumble, using the blue retro Bluetooth adapter for the mod kit has been a disaster, the button layout is all off, and I found that updating the blue retro adapter an absolute nightmare, so I decided to give the 8bitdo adapter a go, this adapter must be updated straight out of the box (which is easy to do) and then it will work perfectly, if I could find one fault with the adapter, it's the colour, it doesn't match my platinum GameCube and Gameboyplayer but other than that I highly recommend it.

Works as expected. Ease of use is fantastic as this is a plug and play solution, once paired no configuration is required. Low latency and excellent connection. Was able to use my DualSense PS5 controller on my Wii for Mario Sunshine. Compatible with both GameCube and revision 1 Wii. Build quality is premium, feels like a 1st party Nintendo accessory

Works very well. Nice gamecube coloring. Easy simple and automatic operation once initially set up. Beat Resident Evil 4 Mercenaries fully using an Xbox controller so theres no issues with lag or anything.

Using this on a Wii to connect a Xbox controller. I know, heresy, but it works phenomenally. Pairing is fast and easy, does not lose signal or disconnects and if you want to revive your old GameCube or Wii without having to spend an arm and a leg on original controller, but you have some other wireless ones laying around that you like, this is a great solution. Highly recommended

A good condition GameCube controller off fleabay is not cheap, and for the price of this adapter and a new/open box Xbox Series X/S controller you're in for the same amount. (plus, this is wireless) This 8bitDo BT Retro for NGC adapter works great with the Wii+GameCube setup +Xbox controller. The only oddity is the A/B buttons being swapped on (my Xbox) the controller (which might be normal) A big added bonus is you can plug the adapter into a PC w/Windows 10+ using a standard USB-C cable and the (paired) controller can then be used on PC games, wirelessly. (if this doesn't work for you, try a different USB-C cable, as some are only for charging) Things of note: Documentation is sparse, and there's no button re-mapping for this adapter supported by 8BitDo. 8BitDo's software is called "Ultimate Software" - It lacks a standard installer, It's is a downloadable zip file where the folder has to be separately extracted and the "8BitDo Ultimate Software V2" executable has to be manually ran. After running the software and connecting the adapter via a USB-C, it presents a somewhat confusing firmware update process. Do NOT run/install the same firmware version twice - (which it allows you to do) - if you do, it appears to put the adapter in some type of recovery mode, but if you run/install it a 3rd time it'll restore itself. (it's a bit of a mess) - the "Current Firwmare Version" at the top/left of their software is in fact what's currently installed on the adapter itself. My recommendation: 8BitDo states "Please ensure the 8BitDo Receiver is updated to the latest firmware before use. " - However unless you're having problems I wouldn't bother. Check the changelog on support.8bitdo.com - where the 8BitDo Retro NGC is about 3/4 down the page. 8BitDo's support e-mail address is support at 8bitdo.com and they respond promptly. There was no configuration or changes needed in the Wii+GameCube setup, it just works, same with Windows, it automatically downloads/installs drivers/etc.

Très facile d’utilisation. Il suffit de le brancher dans le port de la manette. Pas de soucis pour connecter les manettes 8bitdo, la Switch contrôler pro et les manettes Xbox et PS. Par contre je n’ai pas pu connecter une manette Hori.
