Best GameCube Controllers at this point? (lemmy.world)

I want to play some old GameCube games on my Wii. I’m looking for a a GameCube controller or equivalent that would work well. I’m not doing competitive Smash or anything, but I would still like something that is decent quality. The stuff I’ve seen on Amazon kinda makes me think it’s junk.

What are your recommendations for a readily available GameCube controller at this point?

The Smash controller is very good, but not as good as an original. The new one is lighter, is made of cheaper materials (my non-scientific opinion from holding them), and has triggers that can get stuck at certain angles.

But as far as modern GC controllers go, that's probably the best option.

To me they feel almost completely the same I have both here and the only differences they have is that the newer triggers feel a bit different, which could simply be because the old one is 20 years old at this point.
