PowerA made a wireless GC controller for Switch. I got one and paired it with my Steamdeck. Works fine.
Also, for the Metroid Prime's, if you're not too hung up on playing it the original way, look into Primehack. It's a modded Dolphin emulator with specific FPS controls for Metroid Prime. There are packages for Linux available. I think the one that worked best for me was the flatpak version.
I've got two that are pretty much clones of the GC controllers, but with USB plugs. They work find on a retropie system. I can check the brand once I'm home from work.
NVM: I was mixing up GameCube and N64 controllers. I've got the latter
I have the wired version of the same controller.
Works great. Biggest differences from the original GC controller are the shoulder buttons not being analog and there's no rumble.
