First, my apologies if there's a thread like this. It's been many months since I've visited the forums.

Back when I was active here, I made a few posts regarding controller setup. I was playing the game again recently, and I'm more and more tempted to use a Pro controller rather than a GC controller, mainly for C-sticking (guess you wouldn't call it that, though), and shoulder-button jumping (then again... you can do that with GC too).

Anyway. So for the main question, anyone go from GC to Pro? If so, thoughts? If you seriously attempted it but stuck with GC, why?

I switch back and forth, but the pro controller feels great. I especially like the simple ZL and ZR trigger buttons compared to the big L and R buttons on the GC controller. I would say the right stick placement has always been a little awkward for me to get to though compared to the c-stick.

Eventually, I'm probably gonna stick with Hyperkin's ProCube to get the best of both worlds :)
