Nintendo’s GameCube controller for the Switch 2 will cost $64.99, according to the controller’s listing on the company’s website. The controller releases on June 5th, the same day as the Switch 2, but Nintendo will be making it available to order ahead of that date.

Initially, the controller will be available to buy from May 8th to May 12th to people who receive direct invitations from Nintendo to buy a Switch 2, according to a footnote on the controller’s listing. Starting May 13th, Nintendo will offer it to people who pay for a Nintendo Switch Online subscription.

The controller looks very similar to the original GameCube one, but the Switch 2 version is wireless and has some additional buttons to match what’s on other Switch 2 controllers. It won’t work with all regular Switch 2 games, though; in a statement to Polygon, Nintendo said that since the controller “doesn’t have all the buttons and features found in other controllers that can be used with the Nintendo Switch 2 system, there may be some issues when playing other games.”

For the Switch 2, Nintendo will offer GameCube games as part of a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscription. On the Switch 2’s launch date, the GameCube lineup will include The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, F-Zero GX, and Soulcalibur II.
