OSTENT Wired Shock Game Controller for Nintendo GameCube NGC Video Game Color Purple

Used for Nintendo Wii

Controller appears to have a mind of its own and doesn’t work straight out of the box check in the connections rebooting the console and plugging in the controller did not fix this issue.

Works well, all the buttons and joysticks work properly. Wire seems sturdy. As well as prompt delivery :)

For the price, it’s alright. The build quality is okay. The worst thing is sometimes playing on the GameCube, the controller freezes for a split second and then gets stuck repeating whatever action you were just performing. So if you were moving the analogue stick downwards and the controller freezes, your character won’t do anything other than move downwards. To fix it, you have to unplug the controller and plug it back in again.

Unfortunately the controller did not work for the reason I purchased it. The controller was in good condition when I received it but sadly it does not work on the Nintendo Wii :(

Good GameCube controller does the job

The control sticks are very stiff and spongy, the shoulders are much clunkier, like the difference between the Smash GC controllers and the original run only more so, and the face buttons have a harder clunk to them, kind like the Hori Fight Pads Classic Controllers (the Mario, Luigi, Pikachu, Link controllers that look like GC ones). The buttons themselves are slightly darker than the officials, particularly A and Z are noticeably different. The case itself is much more of a dark purple than the official indigo controllers. I quite like this shade, it goes well with a black top and purple bottom.So why have I rated this so high? Because the official circuitry from an official controller fits right in these cases. Bit of a squeeze and you have to be careful with it, but it works. Just tested some ATs in Smash 4 using my regular Smash controller encased in this purple case, and works a treat. I left the third party buttons in and they were obviously a little clunkier than usual, but the rubber membranes underneath seemed reasonably solid enough, which is a surprise. The Z button has so little travel, it works perfectly fine, but there is much less haptic feedback from it, less of a click. L and R were still rubbish until I turned the internal plates inside (the ones that keep the base of the triggers in place for the digital click) 90 degrees inward towards the centre so that the triggers have less space to travel. They no longer click all the way so there's no digital click, but they stop just after they register in Smash 4 for shields, which is perfect, making the buttons far more responsive in gameI'm happy with these, being as they may third party rubbish, because they are useful for people looking to customise their controllers. I haven't yet tested if these cases will fit perfectly with an official case for two-tone controllers, but they look so similar I assume it'll work. These use small Phillips screws instead of triwing, but they seem the same size, so I may edit this review at a later date. I also intend to use one of these as a test for custom spray painting controllers. If you're looking for GC cases but don't want to wreck a precious official controller, give these a shot. Cheap and cheerful, not perfect and you'll have to fiddle around with the internals a little more than with officials. Still, you get a dark purple case and reasonably decent-feeling stick caps you could use as replacements for your main controller, as well as all the buttons and internals, which is great for the price. I'm going to test out custom spray painting the case, something I'd much rather not test out on an official controller, so it's good to know I can just dump an official circuit inside and it'll still fit and play well.

Joycon doesn’t work

It worked fine at first but when i put it in the control stick only went up and down everything else worked fine. I even tried blowing it putting it in different slots and it still only goes up and down. I assumed it would work as it should but clearly that was my mistake cause I wasted 12 dollars.

2 besteld, 1 deed het niet, althans verkeerde input qua links rechts op neer etc. Geretourneerd en nieuwe besteld. Zoonlief is er blij mee.

wow, sehr schnell versand, alles super, gerne wieder....

Tutto ok , preso per Wii funziona bene.

Schade haben uns gefreut zu zweit spielen zu können und nun geht das nicht man kann die R Taste nicht rücken also es reagiert nicht wenn man es drückt und der Stecker 🧐 hmmm der verliert immer den Kontakt obwohl er drin steckt und fest ist… Schade wirklich sehr schade
