No chance.

 

You may as well have linked to a PS4 pad for the relevance of those to the price of a gamecube set of joy cons - I doubt they wold build in HD rumble, IR cameras and laser pointers to play Mario Sunshine!

PS4 and Xbone pads are around £50 as well. I would love to have cheap controllers for the VC, but I can't see it happening at all. Or not for us anyway, with the Brexit-adjusted pricing.

The GameCube joycons would need to work as regular joycons too tho right? So would probably be more expensive than than the standard ones...

 

Nah, they couldn't as would have a analogue triggers and different layout etc - I think they would be more like the classic controller for wii/u so wouldnt need to work in all the Switch games just VC - give them a good d-pad and you could cover nes/snes/N64/GC in one add on for £20-£30 and we would all lap it up while complaining about more plastic!

Not at all. They could release them just to play GC games without any of the fancy stuff inside; I have a couple SNES Classic Controller Wii pads which are perfect for SNES games, but obviously don't have analogue sticks and only one pair of shoulder buttons.

 

(I do use them to play Mario Kart 8 though.)

I guess me point is that it works for when the Switch is docked, but not so practical when its functioning as a handheld.

Imagine that in the dog grip thing and you have a wavebird :wub:

 

Im sure Nintendo could finesse it so its smaller and more practical for handheld mode but tbh I would be 100% fine with that as a solution!

Seems kinda silly not just having an analogue trigger on the original joy con as, at a quick glance, it has enough accessible buttons to replicate Gamecube games anyway...?

 

I can't think of another example of Nintendo releasing a 'must own' controller for VC games though, so I'd expect there would have to be another way to do it with regular joy cons anyway, perhaps using motion, or simply separating out the analogue bit and the click to 2 buttons with a time delay... (I realise that probably won't work...)

Definitely looks more like the PS3 version which isn't unexpected (again that is if it's real footage).

 

What we need is Konami to announce Pro Evo Switch, that will get EA motivated.

Or just give a HD port of sensible world of soccer? It'd work great with the joycons for table top two player. Fifa and PES won't be too playable like that.

Can't see why not, I used to play Fifa on the Vita a lot and it was great but I hated how restricted it was compared to a full console version and the controls just not as good as a full size controller. I also have Fifa on the Wii U and it was brilliant on the gamepad.

They'd be fine as the same shape as the proper Joy-Cons, just with an added d-pad, triggers, and resized buttons :)
