In a similar fashion, it has now been identified that the 4.0 update adds support for the GameCube controller.

The particular adapter was marketed by the company during the Super Smash Bros for Wii U to allow players to make use of an old GameCube controller that might be lying around in their house. Once you plug in the adapter into the console, open the settings menu and press the L & R buttons together. The pairing will happen and it should work seamlessly even though the controller is decades old by now.
