Seeing you hold down a wire with your bare finger while soldering it in place with the iron so close to your finger is kinda wild.

I guess this is going to push me to get that GC Battler controller. It'll play better for Switch games at least. Also the longer battery life is going to be great. I need a new Switch controller. I don't want to wait on the inevitable stick drift for my joycons...

retro fighters for the win - if you're into ergonomics, convenience, and functionality that is

Not a fan of how the retro fighter controller looks

Currently NYXI Warrior is by far the best Gamecube controller. Haven't tried this new retro fighters, but they have a long way to go if we compare the last one they made.

Thank you for the in-depth review and feedback!

That 8bitdo looks sick!

My battler GC Pro came with a dud GC Receiver, basically kept disconnecting randomly. Customer support sent me a new controller w/receiver since we didn't know which one was the issue. The new receiver works great so that was the issue. Just an fyi for anyone buying it, could be just a bad luck issue I had or could be more widespread.

We're talking $$$money

Just gwt a wavebird :]

Is it possible to use wired NES & SNES Classic/Mini controllers with MiSTer using a different controller adapter by any chance? The Genesis 3-button Mini/classic controller is totally doable on it's own since it's basic USB, and has just under 2ms of lag.

Do you have any tips for people who only want to improve audio but not remove composite? Would it be as simple as just not soldering in the RGB and sync wires? Are there other steps I should change?

I really hate the trend of everything Bluetooth. They have lag, they are unreliable, a lot of button combos to remember, batteries that will die eventually,. and worst is that you need to remember to charge them to gain the only "benefit" of being wireless. Having a battery in the controller means you will be in an endless cycle of having to plugging it in to charge and unplugging it to prevent the battery from getting damaged , I much rather prefer to use wired controllers It's fine for third party wireless controllers to exist because having options are always good. But the ones I can't stand are the one that replace the pcb, I know they are "reversible" but do anyone think that people will actually keep track of the OG parts for years to come?

The cost of a OEM wired controller + 8bitdo mod kit + a 8bitdo GC receiver would probably cost the same as a Wavebird Controller

battler gc pro is amazing and has replaced my original gc controller

Came to see the comparison of the controllers and got a great box plot bonus explanation \o/

Apologies if I missed it, but Retro Fighters put out a firmware update that specifically says it helps with latency - just wondering if the tests in this video included that firmware update or not.

My preference is the NYXI Warrior.

You really should have tested the analog triggers with the double nozzle in Mario Sunshine. The double nozzle enables hover, and Mario's height is controlled by the analog trigger and is impossible with digital triggers.

You sir have great taste in home audio, i have the same rp-600m's but the ii's that came out this year and they're excellent

Retro Fighters is out of the box and ready for an extra $10, with a better battery. How exactly is 8bitdo considering itself viable, especially when the receiver is out of stock and stupidly not bundled to ensure a GC will accept this?

I prefer the 8bitdo kit because I like the og design

6 hours of battery life for 8BitDo? Are they sure it's not a PlayStation controller? That's pathetically low. That alone disqualifies the 8BitDo kit from my own consideration.

retro fighters needs to get their shit together with their pre-orders. I'll stick with 8bitdo hardware, they don't pull any pre-order bs, timely firmware updates, excellent build quality, and offer spare parts.

Nice video and just in time as I recently had a customer ask me about installing the 8BitDo Mod Kits in a couple of their controllers while I'm working on their GameCube so nice to get a heads up as to what I'm in for. Cheers!

ive used both I perfer the 8bitdo for normal gaming. but for smashbros I perfer retro fighters

If you can get me a step by step doc, I'll upload it to it's own website and host it.

Thanks for bringing back more short videos, ye def should cut some stuff from the lives and post, i really like yer videos, but, short videos (10~20min)are easier to watch

Hopefully Retrofighters can push out a firmware update to fix the bad latency. I can’t stand the D-pad on the original controller.

Thank you. This is amazing info and comparison. We need a lot more in-depth and detailed comparisons like this.

I LOVE retro fighters. I think they're doing the lords work. I have their n64 controller, ps1/2/3 wireless controller, dreamcast one and this. They have a battery life that goes on for days. My ONLY complaint is that the USB dongles should have their corresponding name/console printed or molded on it so I can see it easily. Or just stamp the system logo (or similar but legally distinct). Small complaint. They're the bees knees

I like how you mention a video card could be a better solution, I was thinking emulators will always look better than scalers. Scalers are neat for hardcore enthusiasts but something like dolphin always will look better. Did you ever test Wii? Thanks for the vid.

120$ vs 300$?

great idea about going to Goodwill

Where, oh where are Zapper cables?

Has anyone found an easier way to solder the ribbon cable connector ?

Question so when loading games into the sd card are they from rom and emulators ? Or are they separate files

Looks amazing 🎉

Hi thank you for posting this video. My GC model is 101. However, how can I copy over 4GB files on to a FAT32 formatted SD card..?

Im starting a ashida soon and im really excited about it. Im not good at soldering so im getting abit of help from a family member but i may post the process or maybe just the after math on UA-cam

Yeah... F-Zero Expansion Kit just adds a few more courses, the ability to create a custom machine, custom courses and adds it's own version of the Mario Kart 64 song of Rainbow Road on said course.

I'm assuming that side mounted SD card is for an SD2SP2, could you share where you got that kit from? I dig it!

Thanks @Dubesinhower for this video series. You literally made this project super approachable for any newcomers to portabalizing. I finally have a working portable wii/GameCube!

Bring back Retro Mod News please!!!

Does it work for Wii U with GC adapter

Any chance of making a video of UltraHDMI vs PixelFX ?

How do these TT shells compare to Aliexpress/Cheap knockoffs? Earlier in December nobody made an big deal / announcement for these TT shells. I happen to discover them by randomly checking the link on SAG.

Cant find it in stock 😭

From the brief mention at the end: If you ever want to commit to getting a new Model F keyboard, I just got mine in, and it's super solid. Very pricey, but I would say very worth it.

I grew up with my friends owning a Gamecube and I LOVED the games but I despised the controller (mainly the button layout and different sizes) This makes the Gamecube sooooo much better for me. I know everybody seems to love the GC controllers.
