Smash Wii U Who's gonna use the 3ds as a wii u controller?

[Deleted member]

Why would I use the 3DS and its imprecise Circle Pad as my main controller when there are far, far more superior options out there?
EDIT: Even if I had more than 5 friends over, I still wouldn't use it or trust it in the hands of someone else.

Why should anyone settle for less? GameCube controller, Pro Controller, both of those are great. Honestly the 3DS would make one of the worst controllers to use for Smash. That or base Wiimote.

I still think Wiimote alone's still gonna be the worst controller available for Smash.

That could be said for any game that isn't Wii Sports.

I started to disagree with games like Skyward Sword but found it too easy to contradict myself. Would have happily played that without swinging, even though I didn't find it gimmicky or tiresome to the end, I think I'll always prefer button pushing and directional sticks as the primary method of control. Until they have brain control I guess ha.

Skyward Sword uses the Nunchuck. I'm referring to only Wiimote.

I will!
I love the Circle Pad.
But I'll be using the Gamepad more than the 3DS though.

 

[Captain Norris]

I will when I have friends over. Good controllers are pretty expensive, so I will let them use the better controllers as I use my 3ds.

That's fair, I wasn't. I still prefer most standard controllers to the disjointed feel of the wiimote/chuck or the wiimote alone.

Considering the fact that I have every controller option for Smash Wii U, I think that the 3DS is defintely a last resort of sorts. Well, maybe the Wii mote alone is a last resort.

Anyways, I see no point in wearing down my 3DS circle pad down any further when I have more durable controllers available.

i love the feel of my 2ds. The 3ds feels much different and quite off

 

[Forever 9]

No way. Definitely using a Game Cube styled one.
Why would I risk damaging my circle pad on my perfectly good working 3DS.

I'm probably just weird but I really like the feel of the circle pad over gamecube controller. The smaller 3ds is way more comfortable for my hands. Going directly up and down or side to side with a larger joystick has always been an issue for me on GC controllers. It feels really awkward.

I'm not a child that throws/breaks things when I get mad, so I'm not too worried about that. Circle pads are very easily fixed anyways.

I'll use the 3DS for a controller once or twice just to see how that feature feels like, but I'll mainly be using a GC.
