The GC Ultimate 2 Is Here—And It’s Almost Too Much Controller
The legendary GC Ultimate controller gets a serious upgrade with the Ultimate 2, now live on Kickstarter. Devoted GameCube fans (and perfectionists with thumbs) will love what’s new:
- 🎨 More colorways than your high school art class
- 📡 Upgraded wireless chip (hello, low latency!)
- 🔌 Wired-only mode for competitive play or battery anxiety
- 🎮 Switch 2 compatibility—yes, that Switch 2
- 🔧 Upgrade kit for owners of the original Ultimate
Priced at $75 (basic) or $115 (full wired/wireless kit), delivery is expected by year’s end. For context: Beast—a longtime RetroRGB contributor and certified controller wizard—calls it “the most godlike GameCube controller I’ve used.” High praise.
If you’re into pro-tier gear, customization, and nostalgia with a side of future-proofing, this might be your next obsession.
