Original Nintendo Gamecube Controller - Indigo

Normally I wouldn't bother with a review here, they're used GC controllers that suck. They sort of feel like they might be worthwhile for use, but I don't think anybody that plugs one of these into a port and plays something with it would be satisfied with their purchase. It was my fault for being dumb enough to believe the reviews on this site; specifically one where someone said the controller they got could be used for Melee - utterly laughable. I wouldn't have paid $5 for this controller if I'd picked it up at a garage sale and spent 3 seconds pressing the buttons. I'm disappointed I fell for the reviews, don't make the mistake I did, do not purchase these controllers. 2/5 stars because technically you can still use the parts of the controllers.

In great/ excellent shape!

I love this website, I’ve been buying from them for so long and have never had an issue. With that said, I wished they would’ve tested this controller out before ending it to me because the analog drift is very noticeable and annoying. I’ll eventually fix it but I hope they test their product before sending it.

Stick is very loose, bounces around when setting controller down, etc. Everything else is perfect but the very loose stick is extremely annoying.

Works good. Im happy with my purchase. Thank you.

This controller worked fine after I bought it, until recently all of the buttons on the right side of the controller stopped working - (A, B, X, Y). This controller is now unusable. I purchased a silver one just like it which still works fine, for some reason this controller did not last. I’m disappointed and I cannot figure out a way to return or exchange it.

Tested and working

I have played Super Smash Bros since melee and know how hard it is to come by original Gamecube controllers in good condition. I compared these controllers to the Gamecube controllers I have had for over 10 years and I blown away by the quality of the controllers I received from Lukie's Games. They looked as if they were brand new, me and my friends got together to use them on the Nintendo Switch to play Smash Bros Ultimate and Mario Kart and their response and feel were the best out of any of the controllers we had available to play with. Most places are out of stock of the Super Smash Bros Ultimate Gamecube Controllers the fact that Lukie's is offering the Original Gamecube controllers in this condition for $40 is an offer I haven't seen anywhere. I'm pleased with my purchase and will likely order more controllers from Lukie's for competitive play as me and my friends play in tournaments.

I play Super Smash Bros Melee competitively and as such I have gone through many controllers, and sources from which they are supplied. The “best” kind you can get are these, the original Nintendo ones manufactured with a metal bar aligning the right and left triggers to their springs. I opened these up with my tools on arrival and confirmed they were in perfect condition and smooth to use. I paid like $50 or something for the new Nintendo Smash 4 series GameCube controllers and those work fine, but they lack the trigger bar and have tighter sticks. This seems to me like the best place to get the better original Nintendo controllers for a good price.

Originally got a replica controller but I could hear the springs in the triggers and none of the face buttons worked so I went and bought this. Wow, what a difference. Knowing what I know now, I should have just went straight to Lukie Games. Highly recommend you pick one up if you don't have one already.

My controler is awesome it came in great shape I was very happy with it.

This controller is certainly worth the extra money. I spent hours playing with it as soon as it came and i even dropped it by accident. It was no problem. when it came in the mail, there were no signs of wear and tear on the skin and none of the buttons quickly stuck after playing button jamming-oriented games like Super Smash Bros Melee. Even if your budget is tight, in the long run you will be glad you bought a licensed controller over the cheap knock-offs on the site.

The controller came in awesome shape! It felt like the old days when I used to play with cousin's gamecube. Now I get to have one!

I was a little weirded out by the price at first but it was the greatest buy! It works like its brand new and little to no damage to controller casing

I have ordered a good amount from lukie games and everything I have gotten has been in really good condition to excellent! I have not been disappointed from them. This controller I got looked pretty much new. There was no scrates on it and the cord had nothing wrong it didnt look work out at all. After playing with it for a good week the controls still work great for me. I would highly recommend this company to anyone I know who loves games!
