​'Super Smash Bros. Ultimate' Limited Edition Box Includes Branded GameCube Controller

We already knew the GameCube controller would be compatible for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, but Nintendo bosses kept this sneaky bundle all to themselves - until now.

Many players might not have fancied the effort of buying a separate controller, especially when the Switch Joy Cons work just fine, but this new package could sway a few heads.

When playing Smash, it's no secret that many players prefer the GameCube pad than any previous or current tech, so Nintendo have decided to throw one in the newly revealed limited edition box.

The nifty bundle also includes an adaptor, which allows up to four other controllers to be plugged into the console, meaning playing with mates who own old GameCube pads is now an easy option.

No price has been revealed for the limited edition package but if you don't want the big box - or miss out due to its (current) exclusivity to Europe - you can pre-order the same branded controller on Amazon worldwide.

At the moment, we recommend buying the bundle because it comes with everything you need, although prices are yet to be confirmed. Compared to some of the other limited editions on the market, however, you'll probably end up getting your money's worth.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate will launch on 7 December for Nintendo Switch, and is set to become the biggest title of the franchise so far. It boasts brand new characters, 103 stages, and over 800 soundtracks.

Will you be playing it? What about buying this bundle? Let us know.
