Well, this is an interesting development. Nintendo has announced that they’re working on an adapter that will allow GameCube controllers to be used with the Wii U version of Super Smash Bros. 4:

Super Smash Bros. 4 will be available for the Wii U by the end of the year, but it’s currently unknown if the adapter will launch alongside it or at a later date. Hopefully, we’ll learn more about it during this year’s E3 Expo, which begins on June 9.
