The Switch 2 is out right now, and so is the Switch 2 GameCube controller. This controller is perfect for enjoying the newly-released GameCube Classics that are available on Switch 2, but it turns out it might also be a perfect fit for Switch/Switch 2 titles that make use of motion controls.
It’s been discovered that the Switch 2 GameCube controller has support for gyro controls, which means you can play games like Splatoon 3 and more with the old-school option. It’s not known why Nintendo added in gyro support on the GameCube controller, and it’s even more confusing that the company didn’t bother to tell anyone!
Along with that, thanks to a teardown on Reddit, we now know that the Switch 2 GameCube controller has a much improved d-pad compared to the original. Those who are in the know say that the changes make for a much better play experience and seriously improved accuracy. You can read more about the changes Nintendo made here.
