Wana play some Gamecube & N64 but don't have a comfortable controllers for either. Are there any pc compatible controllers with layouts identical or similar to the actual hardware. You guys know any good brands?

I'm using my 8BitDo controller for both console emulation using the right stick for the c-stick or buttons.

Not quite what im looking for, need something with the actual buttons in the same shape & position as they are on the originals.
 
I use for gamecube the 8bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth and since it has analog triggers it feels great for those games.
I use the same controller for N64 games but in certain games it is a bit difficult because I got used to the mapping of the original controller but as I said it is only in certain games for the others I don't feel the difference.
 
Is buying the original controllers + PC adapters a viable option for you? Because if you're looking for the most authentic experience that's the best you can go for
 
Retro Fighters has really cool stuff. Their NGC Pro controller also has, Dolphin supported, analog triggers. I think is a good controller, the d-pad is huge and responsive, the analogs gets the job done.
The one for the N64 is also pretty comfortable but I still think the OG analog is more precise.

Edit: If you want to use official things, Nintendo NSO N64 controller is BT and works on Windows. I could configure it over retroarch without much problems.
I'm pretty confident that the Gamecube one that will release alongside Switch 2 also works on Windows!

If wired isn't a problem for you, the Wii U for NGC adapter actually works on Dolphin. Supports even the bongos.

These seem great, just about what i was looking for. Thanks

Came here to say all this, but it was already done better than I would have. I've replaced basically all my old controllers with Retro Fighters ones whenever possible.
 
Original Gamecube Controller + Mayflash Wii U PC Adapter. You even get rumble with it on Dolphin.
Gamecube Controllers (and the console too) are built like tanks. You should still find them relatively decent priced.

This is what I do, Bliss-Box has 1 adapter for them all. You just plugin the cables to the HDMI like ports.


The best part is that it works with the Mister, PC, Android, Mac, Switch, and if you get the Bridge, it works on any console. Check this out!


And everything works, LCD display on Dream cast, n64 memory carts, any rumble pack, built in rumple, pressure buttons, you name it, it works. The compatibility list wil make you ill looking at it. I have over 100 controllers ( yes I have a problem ) and they all work.
