What controller type will be most effective?

[SamDvds]

Just a thought for feedback...what controller do you think everyone will use? Gamecube, Wii-mote or classic? Which will be more prevelant in tournaments and allow the most potential out of each character?

I know there will be no ''official'' way to know this until the game is released, but it's fun to speculate.

Gamecube as it's the one that was originally the only one to use on brawl.

gamcube controller FTW. thats what people are used to, so it will be the easiest to play w/

I'm sure GC will be most used, but I am going to try really hard to adapt to the Classic controller, because I know I would like it after a while.

I will never ever once play wii-mote style. Maybe with a nunchuck since it has a motion sensor c-stick (unless you can't do ariels with Shake Smash, then **** it).

To actually ANSWER the question asked though, I think the most effective will be Gamecube. The Classic could very well be just as effective. It really does depend on the individual.

I swear...there is literally a new thread every day...not exaggerating at all. Like I bet I could find at least 2 dozen threads on this exact same topic if I actually SEARCHED FOR THEM.

OMG USE SEARCH

i did search for it and no thread came up for this topic so i made it. anyway...personally im gonna stick with GC controller, but on the E for Everyone demos i saw ppl using the classic and wii mote, so i hope to get some feedback from ppl who actually played the demo as well, to see how comfortable or Uncomfortable it was vs. the GC controller.

the people who have played smash before would likely use the gc controller if not the classic
people who have never played smash would use the nunchuk combo
and nobody will use the wiimote alone well at least not me I will use the gc controller

E for All...

And the single wii-remote just sucks man. No analog, up to jump...ghey.

These threads always end up with someone yelling "WAIT FOR BRAWL TO COME OUT HOW CAN YOU POSSIBLY KNOW WHICH CONTROLLER TYPE YOU WILL LIKE WITHOUT PLAYING THE GAME FIRST"

Everyone is going to say GCN/Classic Controller.

And I think you already knew that .

While the cube controller has good access to its buttons, it has the worst shoulder buttons ever manufactured.

I have a few ideas, I'm going to try and set rolling to the shake smash, for example, for intuition.

 

[Crossjeremiah]

Maybe all controllers can be used in tournaments. the gc and the classic controller will be the most used. and for people want to be more technical they will use wiimote

 

[kashikomarimashita]

Ill tell you for sure it wont be the Wii remote. Its just too akward and square like.

 

[Night Avenger]

I'm going to try them in this order:
Classic Controller
Wiimote + Nunchuk
GameCube Controller
Horizontal Wiimote

 

[Kruton]

There is no 'technicality' with the single wii-remote. If anything it limits technique. The single wii-remote set up is strictly for young beginners.

 

[Prinkachu]

The GCN controller is like it was made for playing Smash Bros. I will turn off the tap up to jump thing, and if possible, I will put my Final Smash Using in "Y", I never ever pressed "Y" in Melee, (I jump with X) and what if I want to use my neutral special move while I have a Smash Ball? Am I screwed up?

If possible I will keep the GCN controller for the next Smash Bros. and the Smash Bros. after that, and the next...
Nothing is as good for Smash Bros. as the GCN controller...

 

[ShortFuse]

Technically, the Wiimote + Nunchuk for a Snake player if you can point at the screen for his Final Smash
Wiimote + Nunchuk to GameCube
C = Z
Z = R
A = A
B = B
D-Pad = X/Y

 

[Sun-Wukong]

I'll try em' all and decide when it comes out. I'll prolly stick with the Game Cube controller, but I'm gonna try to get used to the Wiimote on it's side, though.

 

[AdeptLoki]

Gamecube if only for familiarity

I concur with these sentiments.
