There's a few set ups to play Brawl.

1. Sideways Wii-Mote. I've tried this, it's extremely annoying IMO and I can never grip it right. Also you need to take the strap off and use it with the grip or else it edges into your hand.

2. Wiimote + Nunchuck. This is what I use now, but I plan on switching. It is fairly easy, wireless (to the wii that is) and is simple enough to pick up and play and know what to do.

3. Classic Controller. I haven't tried this yet, but I've heard it's not that bad. I've felt it in my hands before, so I might need a grip attached so it's more comfortable.

4. Classic Pro Controller. I have no clue where to get these, but I've seen them and they look great. Basically the Classic and the gamecube controller mixed, with two L's and R's instead of one.

5. Gamecube Controller. The most popular, haven't tried it.

6. PS2 to Gamecube connector. Now my friend plays this way. I have no clue why O_O It's an adapter to your PS2 controller, so it plugs into a gamecube and plays fine. I HATE it! And I'm sure none of you guys use it.

99% of people on these forums use the GameCube controller.

5th thread that I've seen like this. >_<

I use the GC controller, but I'm also good with the Classic Controller. After I import the sexy, black CC pro, I'll use that more.

In a house.
Whatever I grab first, but im best with the GC Controller. Usually my brother grabs that one so I kick his butt with the WiiMote held sideways.

You will find that most people play with GC controllers... Especially if they've played the previous versions of Smash. So yeah I use a GC pad.

Yeah the gamecube controller since it has C-stick. Can't play smash without one. :3
I use Nunchuck *gasp*

Just change the directional pad to smash. It acts just like a c stick.
Its just as usable as the GCC

Gamecube Controller.
Why not use it? It has to be one of the greatest video game controllers ever made.
It's layout makes it easy to feel the buttons and know what it is without looking.

I actually used the Classic Controller for awhile before the cord broke for it.-_-
It was actually as useful as the GC Controller IMO.

Gamecube, it just feels nice, and its nice to be able to play all 3 smash games with one controller.
