The Good:
Fits snugly!
Enhances grip (especially nun-chuck)!
Looks good!
The hole on the back exposes the the contact plates for my rechargeable batteries (this will not be true for all types of rechargeable batteries)
The Bad:
It is NOT the same as in the picture! The part that was supposed to be Black was Grey and the part that was supposed to be Grey was Black. Despite this I accepted it since I can still see my name written on my controllers since the Grey is somewhat see-through. I will be demanding that they send me the correct color. i will update with how that goes. (I took one star off for this alone)
As mentioned in other reviews the home and power buttons are extremely hard to push. The + and – buttons are somewhat hard to push and the 1, 2 and A buttons are easy to push but you still will be pressing the cover to push the button.
Even though there was already a hole for my rechargeable battery I can’t use it since the cover prevents me from putting it in the charge station. Admittedly this no fault to the product and was expected–I just wanted to point this out since some may have been curious. (no stars taken off for this but it would have gotten 5 stars from me if it worked.)
———————————-
In the end I kind of like it since I mostly play brawl anyway with the gamecube controller and most games don’t have you pushing the + and – buttons constantly and the home and power buttons aren’t crucial during in game play so I can let it slide.

These are nice little covers. They look great. The material is good enough. They take a little effort to put on, but so does a tight sweater, right? My only issue is that I use rechargeable controllers — these will not fit into my dock between sessions for recharging. The cover comes all the way down over the metal charging tabs on the back of the controller, so that’s an issue right there. But even if you cut a little hole in the back to expose the tabs (yeah, of course I did it!) the overall skin is still too thick to allow the controller to hit the charging connectors. So to charge with these covers on you need to pull the skin back up over the controller (skin-tight) and then back down to start playing again. This is not the end of the world, but it’s also not the no-hassle connector you’d give five stars. If you use batteries — this would be no issue.

I cannot say with any certainty that this provides any additional protection – especially not compared to the original skin that comes with the controller.This is a very slick controller, so it feels odd at first. After getting used to it, it is just fine.

Thinner material then the ones that come with the controls when purchased, but that makes them easier to get on and off. Great value. Too bad it costs more to ship it, then to purchase it.
