You people really need to break out and actually practice trying something DIFFERENT...Wait, this is the Smash community. They suck at "different". XD
Trolling aside, I find the stick placement actually FIXES it. Honestly, the CCPro feels much better to use than a Gamecube controller ever has to m despite playing with it for so many years. Then again, I seem to be the only person who doesn't like the Wii U Pro controller, as I also hate the Xbox 360 controller and Xbox controllers in general, and the Wii U Pro is very similar to it, only worse because of the right analog stick placement.
The CCPro feel just as comfortable as a Playstation controller for me. The sticks are good and comfy, the D-Pad isn't a piece of **** like other controllers and can be reached comfortably, it's light and fits in my hands so well that I don't even have to grip it hard, and the shoulder buttons all press down more quickly, quietly and softly than the Gamecube's clunky feeling shoulder bricks.
I know I'm in the minority here because most Smash players are scared of using anything that isn't a Gamecube controller, but I stand strongly by the Classic Controller Pro. It only helps that I've kicked more *** at this game ever since I bought one and switched to it a year ago. Especially in Project: M. <3
