so wait a minute...i can't use my classic controller i just bought to play gamecube?

[Clearly Kate]

Who would've thought... you need GC controllers to play GC games, classic controller to play arcade/NES games, and Wii controllers for the wii.

 

[Geist des Blitzes]

pretty sure it does. in fact i think there are two z-triggers, instead of the one purple one.

 

[Luke.]

In addition to the gamecube buttons, the classic controller has like another Z-button, a Select button, and an analog stick in place of the C-stick, which is still pretty much the same thing.


And , 360 controller is the best.

i bought the classic thinking i could play ikaruga with it :wtc

 

[Chanae]

Werd is that it will in a future firmware release. I'm hopin' soon, because most people are indeed under this assumption.

 

[The Surfboard Man]

who would've thought....that the gamecube controllers can play SNES/NES/64 games...so kindly shut the fuck up douchebag

 

[Nectar]

the classic controller doesn't even rumble

and correct you are on the 360 controller

The Wavebird doesn't rumble either

Then quit your bitching asscake.

and the controller layout. Looking at that Classic controller I couldn't imagine playing most GameCube games on that thing, you just get used to playing certain games on certain controllers.

That being said, I suck at Street Fighter on my 360 controller, but I'm good at it when they have the single analog stick and the 2 rows of 3 buttons for a total of 6 buttons, like the classic arcade.

 

[McMeaty]

wait a second....2 ROWS OF 3 BUTTONS MAKES 6 BUTTONS!!!!

exactly how long has this been going on ?!?!?!

 

[CaRCaR!]

read what you just fucking wrote...and then read what you wrote before and i guarantee you will punch yourself in the face.

[Pi - Face]

does the classic controller have all the same sticks and buttons as the gamecube controller?

 

[Third]

gamecube controller is one of the best controllers ever made

 

[Vikki S]

Most of the games that the Classic Controller was designed for don't have the rumble feature in the game itself, so I couldn't really see that as a negative

Though, it would be missed on some of the N64 titles on the Virtual Console. I wonder if there is anything they can do to change this?

 

[iminlovewithsoccer]

as far as i understand, yes. the problem is that when you play a gamecube game, ALL of the wii's features, wireless internet, bluetooth wireless, etc are not functional. so when you play a gamecube game, you are basically playing with ONLY the gamecube hardware.

 

[Beaulercoaster]

wireless xbox 360 controller is the best ever.

 

[Oswin]

Shouldn't that be pretty obvious that you buy a "classic controller" to play the classic games? Take it back if you're that upset, a GameCube controller is only ~$10 more
