Advice on What Brand GC Controller to buy for SSB

[Pyroloserkid]

But in all seriousness, get a normal GC one from Nintendo, lol. Wavebirds work pretty well from my experience too.

In all seriousness, is that real?


Also, I have a madcatz controller, and it's a good deal smaller than regular controllers. I find it makes stuff faster, but takes a while to get used to. Personally, I use the GC controller I got when buying my GC, but for Brawl I plan to try out every control scheme and I predict the CC will be the best.

thats pretty cool

Nintendo still sells Cube controllers on their official store LINK

Heck, they still sell N64 controllers.

Cables for the SNES anyone?

Don't even say think of saying that it doesn't count.

Normals are good, so are the Wavebirds,...I guess airflo's are okay...but Superpads suck...way too sensitive...or at least it was for me....

I use this: http://store.videogamecentral.com/unps2coadxor.html

To play with a PlayStation2 controller. I just like the whole button layout more on the PS2 controller then the GC with its oversized A button.

I intend to play Brawl with the PS2 controller aswell...

....

I am going to hell arent I?

EDIT: Actually, I read that classic controller thingie from AtackstorM and its almost the same why I like the PS2 controller so much :D

heh..

Well it works with Melee on my Wii, dunno if it works with Brawl, else I'll get a classic controller, close enough.

Nintendo controllers are the only ones I like personally. I've used some arsenal ones and they all broke on me, than I tried some madcatz one and it was a piece of ****.

So really for Brawl I'm most likely just going to use the standard gamecube controller, although I'm definitely going to try the wii-mote+nunchuck. Probably even try only the wii-mote just for the hell of it.

 

[Ekaru]

Why I'm probably not going to use the Wiimote- nunchuck configuration: I have some difficulties waving a wiimote in the air to attack, then recovering my position. I can do it, but it's annoying.


That said, I am going to try out all the GC controllers, and also get a classic controller. I'm going to try the classic mainly because of the R button of the GC controller... ><; the springs are annoying, and the only reason to press it lightly would be the light shielding, and even if that is still in, I can get into a lightshield with the Z button so quickly, probably even quicker on the CC, that it doesn't matter much IMO.

Besides, the classic controller has something going for it: the fact that after playing enough PS2 fighting games, I am kind of used to that layout. >____>;

So yeah, either GC or CC for me.

4 Wavebirds is the way to do it

 

[CartooN]

offical nintendo.
Buy a wavebird if your not bothered about changing batteries all the time.
Personally I prefer the orignal wired versions.

Agreed I love the Wavebirds. I have 2 classic controllers but hate how they hang down from the Wii Remote.

 

[genosall]
