It's a tiny little spongey thing which is absolutely useless for any sort of precision inputs.

Offer me a controller that is superior to it in more ways than it's inferior.

Dreamcast Controller
PS1 Dualshock

PS3 Dualshock
Xbox Duke Controller
Xbox Controller
Xbox 360 Controller

The Gamecube Controller is seriously one of the all time worst controllers i've EVER used.

They're triggers with buttons at the end of their travel and that makes the buttons themselves useless in almost every situation

Those triggers are ass. The d-pad isn't very good either. Rest is alright.

>>387371774

It's a real "meat and potatoes" controller. Since it feels like holding two potatoes.

Nothing to prove, that's just the reality.

The GC controller is fucking garbage by comparison with virtually every first party controller on the market, fuck even Logitech and shit make better third party controllers than the GC.

>>
>>387374578
just don't reply to them
>>
>>387373251
The triggers on the GC are like psuedo analog. They are initially analog but have a button press at the end of their click, you can check this on Dolphin. If you go to bind a GC controller with an adapter you have to have the trigger slightly pushed down and push the click in when binding the button.
>>
>>387374578
Unless you make a claim that triggers /v/,
you won't get many replies.
I just wanted other opinions because dualshock 4 annoyed me with how you have to bend your hands because of the location of the control sticks and how narrow the controller is.

>no grip and nub of a second stick
I really have never had a problem with either of these.

Shit tastes man

The dpad and asymmetrical Z button thing are stupid in any fucking year though. Gamecube pad is comfy and does a bunch of things right like gated analog, button layout based on use, and the shoulder buttons. but it's only good for gamecube games
>>
The 360 controller is nearly perfect. They just need to fix the fucking d-pad. It's wierd that xbone and ps4 are down grades when they had perfectly fine controllers before.
>>
>>387371774
Best d-pad:
>Saturn Model 2
>Dualshock 1-3

Best button labels:
>Sony

Best analog placement:
>Symmetrical

Best analog stick
>Gamecube

Worst analog stick
>C-stick

Gone but not forgotten:
>RIP analog face buttons. You died for a fucking touch pad and gimmicky glowy panel on the DS4.

The XBOX controllers have always been A+ for comfort but I always get autistic over niggling issues like their squishy face buttons and always less than ideal d-pad. I don't dislike asymmetrical analog layout but do prefer it. Its just more comfortable for me to play shooters with my thumbs syemmetrical in one position and 2D shit like platformers with them symmetrical in another.

No disrespect for anyone who feels different.

ten of thousands of dollars are on the line numbnuts. the people are going to use the best controller. and they use the GCN controller
>>

>if there was literally any better controller then everyone would use that controller
That would make sense but rules negate sense

I also wasn't talking about competitive smash at all
>>
>>387377345
The Dualshock dpad fucking sucks. Dpads need to be seperate buttons and not a shitty squishy pad
>>
>>387377736
>rules
there are no rules ever that say you have to use a gamecube controller
>>
>>387377345
Thanks for actually posting an opinion instead of just shitting on the gc controller.
Is dualshock 3 wider than 4? That's my only problem with it.
>>
>>387377836
>Dpads need to be seperate buttons
But dualshock is the only one that actually does this. What the hell are you on about? Every input on the dualshock is crystal clear and only the dualshock and Saturn's model 2 afford rapid input rotation to adjacent inputs as well as the snappiest converse inputs like left-to-right of any controller out there.

They are literally perfect. My only gripe with the DS is that when its new the texture can be a little much on the thumb after extended play.
>>
>>387378087
I'm not entirely sure. Haven't used a DS4 in a while. I remember it being fairly comfortable but I've never run into the hand crunch others do with the various DS controllers. Is it your thumbs bumping into eachother or is it just the hands/backside fingers in general?

Could be your approach to holding it. I have pretty average (for American) hands. I can only barely palm a basketball for whatever reference that might be. I've found, at least with my friends, that a lot of people hold the controller the way the XBOX encourages. Sort of encompassing the entire thing so that the surface area of their hand and the controller are both consumed with one another. Where I was in the habit from old school controllers of cradling the sides in a sort of nook out from my palm, more between it and my fingers.
>>
>>387378379
It's annoying to have to move my thumb diagonally to move the control stick straight up and the backside feels very off.

>>387379948
That was a digital stick. There was no analog input.
>>
>>387379374
Huh. Up feels like up to me. That sounds like a mental map issue and nobody can be "wrong" about that. Sometimes what works for one guy just can't for another. As for the other you could try repositioning but if you have to go against what feels natural or comfortable to enjoy something when an equivalent already works for you then there's no sense in forcing it really.

Life is what it is. Some things can't be helped.

I do not understand why smashfags have such an obsession with the GC controller. I fucking hate it. The button layout sucks and the pro controler, classic controller, and even the wii u gamepad are 100 times better to use.
Is it because the GC is the only one that's wired instead of wireless?
>>
>>387383736
Very simple, when you grow up with something you have a tendancy to like it. I grew up playing GC a lot, and I like the controller despite its shortcomings. It just feels comfortable to hold.
>>
>>387371774
The D-pad is too small and in an awkward position.

The ABXY buttons are in a retard cluster that is not conductive to many games.

The and L and R buttons don't feel very good.
>>
>>387383914
Yup, which is why the Wavebird, small Xbox classic, 360, and DS2 are my favorites.

It is the GOAT for platforming game. Having the A buttom be that big and the B buttom just a slide away was so good for platformers.

Shooters though, holy shit it was obnoxious
>>
The Xbox One controller is really the perfect controller to play on PC.
>>
>>387371774
Z button is retarded in its size and placement, A button is too big and B is too far away from Y and X, dpad is the second worst only to the xbox 360 and that stupid nub of a c stick.
>>
>>387371774
>Nintendo's typical useless dpad, now bite-sized to be even more useless
>asymmetrical sticks
>no left bumper to compliment Z
>no select button equivalent
>odd face button forms/layout

It does its job well enough but it's far from the best controller out there.
>>
>>387371774
Since the plastic and all the buttons and sticks feel cheap as shit the only saving grace is that it feels like you could throw it against a wall and it wouldn't break, but I'm not even sure if that's true.
>>
>>387388884

360 controller is basically a better GC controller. It fixed the weird lack of a left Z button and had a higher quality C stick. That said I think the GC bean buttons are very underrated.
>>
>>387388412
Symmetrical sticks are uncomfortable garbage for anyone with adult sized hands.
