i feel terrible i cant get my money back over 300$s spent and i know i wont even stand a chance now but im forced to practice with a GCC for two weeks (doesnt compare to wiimote)
Other than the longer cord and color(obviously) are there any differences between the white controller and the platinum/black?
i don't think so, it feeeels sturdier, but that might be because i haven't felt a new black/silver one in years.
Yeah, its been over a year since I bought the platinum that I currently use and the c-stick is worn down to hard plastic on the bottom. I don't remember what a new controller feels like.
I kinda want to get that Wario controller from the Nintendo Club of Japan, or the white and blue... ummm I should make up my mind soon before eBay gets dried out of them...
If thats even the case, you shouldn't of even put Brawl in the circuit if you're going to ban the first party remote and force people to use the GC controller which isn't even made in the states anymore. I no longer have a future in MLG.I'm sorry it affects you so adversely, but we banned your controller because we know what we're doing. We did the same with the PS3 after being advised to BY SONY ENGINEERS about how the wireless signals will be jammed. Sony actually built us custom bluetooth disabled controllers for tournament use. With over 200 Xboxes, 20 Wiis, and 60 PS3s in the same room, there is a 'signal haze' in the room that actually prevents us from using wireless internet from industrial routers, let alone wireless controllers. Would some work? Maybe. Would they work if we let everyone use them? Absolutely not.
We've been doing these events for a while now () and this is something we have explored backwards, forwards, and side ways, we're 100% confident that we made the right decision. Again, I'm sorry if it has put any competitors in a bad position, but it was a necessary decision.
I can see where you are coming from, but you still don't know how it feels to be in my shoes. I HAD to buy my plane ticket before the prices jumped so I did. They didn't bother to say wiimotes would be banned since its sounds so stupid. A few hundred dollars? Thats a lot to me bud. I paid 288 for my plane ticket and cannot get a refund, I can only get in credits and I must pay 150 just to use it. So thats well over 400 dollars already not counting the cost of the new plane ticket I choose. You only say "a few hundred dollars" because you live in FL. I obviously would not complain if the first event was in Dallas. I'd be bummed, but I spent all this money just to have my 2 years of training slapped away. I'm very disappointed and cannot experience Brawl to the fullest like I wanted to. I will not use a controller I shouldn't have to and I won't be nearly as good.

This is a really good question. I hope it gets answered.

ESAM hate group rolls deep.
yes i hope i don't get dodged, because if i see them using wiimotes during events i will be upset and talk to someone about it anyway, but whatev~
it's a really dumb and ignorant question actually. if a station goes down they will put it back on. it will only take a minute or less to get the station back on instead of 6-7 min sets. So it's not really a big deal to get the station back on. just get over it
Cant u use the Classic Wii Controller to start the game. (which is wired)
The Wiis will already be turned on and ready to go before warm-ups start.
