Nintendo has announced that they’re releasing an adapter that’ll let you play the new Super Smash Bros. on Wii U with a Gamecube controller!

The adapter functions via adapting the Wii U’s usb port to the Gamecube’s cord, allowing you to connect up to four wired controllers. This is awesome news for the competitive Smash Bros. community, which almost exclusively uses the Gamecube controller to this day.

When Nintendo was asked about Wavebird (wireless) compatibility and functionality with other Wii U games, they said they have “no other details at this time.”

Nintendo will have the new adapter on display at E3 during their Super Smash Bros. tournament on Wii U. You can also check out the newly revealed trailer for the Smash Bros. E3 2014 tournament below:
