Question 1

Why would I want this over my exsiting switch controller? Are there advantages?

Accepted Answer

First, you'd also need the adapter which is an extra 20 bucks or so. That might be a dealbreaker for you already. If not, there's a couple of reasons. Second, this controller is the way Smash was "made" to be played. Specifically, it was the controller that started it all with Smash moving to the popular and competitive scene. This controller's button layout is designed specifically for the mechanics of the game. The larger A button is easier to touch for your more common attacks. The smaller B button is for less commonly used special attacks. And, depending on whether you prefer to use the control to jump, the Y and X buttons surround the A button making combining aerial attacks more intuitive. Third, this controller tends to be more "smash friendly" unlike the pro controller. The pro controller (which I also own) follows the design of the Xbox 360 controller which feels really nice, but is really set up with opposing thumbsticks, uniform buttons, and shallower hand grips for ease of use in games different from smash (such as first and third-person shooters). Finally, compared to the regular switch controller (whether you're using the charging dock or the regular controller dock), there is no contest. The switch controller tends to make it difficult to play for extended periods of time. Additionally, the smaller buttons make for more difficult precise combinations. All of this is on top of the fact that the gamecube controller is one of the most durable controllers ever made (not hyperbole - the gamecube came out in 2001 and I've STILL got controllers from that era that work, and they've been dropped, thrown, and yanked out of the system).

Hope this long diatribe answers your question. :)

Question 2

How will 4 people using the GameCube controllers all connect the controllers to the switch?

Accepted Answer

There is a dongle, adapter with 4 GC controller ports on it, coming for the Switch as well. ASIN: B07DJX3ZR8

Question 3

Will this still work on GameCube and wii?

Accepted Answer

Yes.

Question 4

Is this an official Nintendo controller?

Accepted Answer

It is officially branded but does not feel like any other official GameCube controller I own.  In particular, the left stick and C-stick have much tighter resistance which makes it feel more similar to some 3rd party controllers I've tried.
