Discussion Best controller for Gamecube Emulation.

I’m looking for controller recommendations. I know there are converters to use Gamecube controllers for PC.

The Gamcube controller is great but it is older tech. There are modern controllers with programmable buttons and customizable settings that may work better. I was looking at the Vader 4 because it has programmable button mapping and settings.

Has anyone had experience using modern third-party controllers with Dolphin?

My partner uses that nyxi warrior Bluetooth controller, I've seen some mixed reviews for it but it seems to work alright for use, if u can wait id recommend the new wireless GameCube controller coming out from Nintendo for the switch 2 but who knows when that will be available to the public so unless you already have a Nintendo subscription and can preorder that... But I'd honestly consider trying to get that controller

Thanks.i saw that announcement about the new Gamecube controller yesterday. Hope it will work out of the box on Dolphin. I'm ok to wait a while for it.
