New GC controller

Does it feel the same as the old I bought 20 years ago?

    Melee autists would probably argue about it somehow but I own several and they're great.

      seems to be similar enough

      not even originals all feel the same, there's 3 stick variants and they all suck

      Melee autist here. The Smash 4 controllers are pretty much perfect. Maybe if you're in the top 1% you'd notice a difference but they're all playing on notched custom $200 controllers and goonwaves anyway.

      it's about the same quality as the original controller
      just melee autists cannot handle the reality of gamecube controllers were finicky and shit and always have been but since they be assed to break nintendo rules to just use real controllers instead

      Melee players love the Smash 4 controllers because it's way easier to shield-drop through platforms with them

    The main difference you'll probably notice is the cord length is 2x as long, which is definitely a good thing.

    I've got a friend who swears up and down that it's worse than the original controllers, so I opened up both an original (black controller) and a SSB one, swapped literally everything except the outer shell, and he swears it's a 100% original controller in spite of the cord length being longer. Placebo eating motherfricker.

    Let's leave the question of how painful it was for your dad to have a controller in his balls with you 20 years ago. And how you ordered it. I wanna know how it delivered?

    If you bother to take one apart there's some assembly differences but it's the same controller as the originals pretty much. Don't take controller advice from people who don't bathe.

    I bought one but eventually used it for parts to fix another gamecube controller because I don't like smash and think the logo on it is ugly. Like the white controllers they rereleased for the Wii it has an extra long cable which can be convenient.

    I have these and the original.
    The plastic has a different texture. You WILL notice if you own both.
    The controllers are still great. In fact, I think they might get less greasy than the original one.

    If the old one was used a lot it might feel different, like I think old sticks get looser.

      I have one of those, it's fine. Like another person said, the biggest difference is a way longer cable. But something doesn't feel quite the same compared to my original controller.

      Yes, perfectly. Just use the WiiU adapter and plug it into the usb.

    The only good thing about this controller is the triggers and no amount of meme data is going to convince me that this controller is any good. Look at this A-button and see if the designer of this abomination knew what he was doing, when claw is the optimal way to play the games made for your controller it means you've done something wrong.

    Rereleases for smash lack the trigger springs yet the Nintendrones eat it up.

      Really? I must've added my own springs after getting mine and forgot about it.

      That cheap Chinesium Smash logo printed on there with what looks like a water tattoo stick-on tampo, definitely lets me identify who the homosexuals are at least.

      Sounds like someone's mad they got bodied at a local.

      That and the one in the OP are the same exact controller just with a different design printed on it. They're identical to OEM controllers other than the lack of springs and the newer (better) stickbox. Just salvage some springs from an old controller or look up a guide on cutting your own if you want to go for maximum autism but unless you're playing high-level Melee the springs don't matter.

      >That and the one in the OP are the same exact controller just with a different design printed on it.
      alright, that's all I needed to know.
      >They're identical to OEM controllers other than the lack of springs and the newer (better) stickbox
      when you say this, are you refering to the springs in the L and R buttons?

      >when you say this, are you refering to the springs in the L and R buttons?
      Yes.

      Correction: It's not the springs it's lacking. It's the braces. Without springs the buttons would basically not function. The braces aren't mandatory, they just add stability to the triggers.

    I feel that Nintendo and Sega could make respectable side money by manufacturing and selling new old controllers, retro market is big enough to make it worthwhile. Could also sell usb adapters to profit off emulation.

      Nintendo are never going to do anything which might in any way encourage or look like tacit approval of emulation. Sega get free money by just licensing their shit out to companies like Retro-bit so that they can make cheap knock-offs, which is good enough for most people just looking for a nostalgia hit.

        Nintendo won't release GCN emulation on NSO, not even on their next Switch, GCN is remaster territory. But they would be really stupid if they don't offer a WaveBird for NSO suscribers around the launch of the next smash.

          No one wants a Wavebird for Smash lmao. Everyone sees it as a nostalgic novelty but anyone serious enough about Smash to play with a GC controller doesn't want to deal with the latency introduced by wireless.

            Nintendo doesn't care about your ridiculous seriousness. People will pay a subscription for the privilege of paying for the game cube wireless controller as they have paid for the nes, snes and N64 wireless controllers.

              And Smash players don't care about yours. If you want to keep believing Nintendo is dumb enough to produce a controller with no target demo then by all means keep on believing.
