8BitDo's new mod kit allows for a wired GameCube controller to be retrofitted with Hall effects joysticks and Bluetooth connectivity, offering a modern upgrade.
This simple, solderless mod comes at a price of $25.98 and includes a USB-C rechargeable battery, ensuring about 6 hours of playtime between charges.
Installation may be challenging as it requires removing the original PCB and cutting a cable, which raises concerns for those interested in preserving gaming hardware.
The kit is compatible with Nintendo Switch and Android, expanding its usability but limiting the original wired connectivity unless paired with an additional receiver.
