Can you imagine rocking up to a tournament with one of these? fans out there who wouldn't mind an official Switch dock to include this in future. We imagine there are a fair few Super Smash Bros. Look how neat and tidy it turned out in the finish: The final result is pretty impressive, we must admit. If you're interested in how it all came together, you can read the full process step-by-step here. The adapter lets you use any of the old GameCube controllers or the re-released version (identical to the original) from Nintendo, but since it needs two old-fashioned USB-A ports, you can only use it with the Switch dock. The adapter in question is from Mayflash i_AM_hank says the unit 'turned out to be a good choice because the controller ports are on a board separate from the main circuitry which ultimately allowed it to slip between the inner and outer casing of the dock'.

Well, one Reddit user going by the name of i_AM_hank has taken things into their own hands and done exactly that, modding their Switch's dock to include an integrated third-party GameCube controller adapter. If a USB hub is being used with the dock, remove it momentarily and ensure that the Game Controller Adapter is connected directly to the dock. Nintendo may well have released its own official GameCube adapter for your Switch, but what if you could do one better and have GameCube controller support built-in? Unplug the GameCube Controller and GameCube Controller Adapter from the Nintendo Switch dock, then plug them back in.
