Pikachu, Mario, and Luigi GameCube* controllers ⊟
By Hori, officially licensed by Nintendo. They look really, really close to real GC controllers, with the nice (but not really Smash-appropriate?) addition of turbo. Hori just announced the Pikachu version for Japan, but the Mario and Luigi versions are already available for pre-order in North America, shipping on the November 21 release date of Smash Bros. for Wii U.
More important Smash-related preorder links here for convenience:
- Super Smash Bros for Wii U/3DS
- Hella Amiibo figures
- Super Smash Bros. Wii U bundle
- Smash Bros.-edition GameCube controller
- Wii U GameCube Controller Adapter
Note: Unlike the Smash Bros.-edition controller, the Hori ones above plug into the Wiimote like Wii Classic Controllers, so they’re compatible with a lot of Wii, Wii U, and Virtual Console games – but they’re not for real-real GameCube controllers.
