Controller Information:

• GameCube controllers will be available to rent for an additional $2. Limited quantity available.
• All controllers are permitted unless they produce an undue advantage compared to an original Switch or GameCube controller (such as an AutoFire button). If you are unsure please speak to a Tournament Official. In general, allowed Controllers include Nintendo GameCube, Nintendo Pro Controller, Nintendo Joy-Con, SmashBox.
• We highly suggest that all wireless pro controllers have USB cables to expedite the syncing process and to make sure they maintain battery.
• We also highly suggest that players use wired controllers so transition between matches moves more smoothly. If you drop out please make sure your controller does not cause any interference. This means not pressing a single button during someone else’s match.
• Players are expected to come with fully charged controllers if they are wireless. You can charge your controllers on the Switches but please note that you would be fully liable for them.
