Smash Wii U If you had one C-stick smash to remove...

This is actually less of a hypothetical question and more of a controller problem...

I use the Wii remote + Nunchuck controller, and as you probably know, it doesn't have a c-stick. However, I can change the D-pad to smash attacks, which feels like a good substitute. But once I do that, I don't have a grab button, which makes Z-dropping gyros/etc. a lot harder.

This means I have to replace one of the D-pad arrows to grab (since the 1 and 2 buttons are too far down) which makes another problem -- I lose a C-stick direction.

Is there any way to get around this? If they allowed you to use the minus key, it'd be a lot easier.
I might be able to buy one of those fight pad things, but for now...

What about C and Z on the Nunchuck?

I'm pretty used to them being shield and jump. But if I replaced them, is there anywhere they could go?

i had the same problem long ago in the brawl era. I couldnt find a solution since i used the down d pad to grab,so i just played without the down sma3sh pad.

Just set 1 to grab. It's better than nothing.

Well, I gave it a serious try, and, strangely, it was perfectly fine!
The 1 button is actually a lot easier to reach than I thought...
