    3 out of 5 stars Kinda awkward but good for Soul Calibur II. ^_^   September 3, 2008
    We logged in countless amounts of time, sweat, tears and blood into that game! Animal Crossing and Super Smash Bros. were loved also. Mario Kart: Double Dash was good for multi-player.

    Overall, it's not that hard to use but I agree the Z button is kinda hard to reach at times. The layout isn't perfect but it's better than some say.

    3.75 stars.



    5 out of 5 stars Best Controller for Wii (GC & Virtual Games), Best Also for Gamecube   July 7, 2008
    The Wii classic controller is a bit awkward and hard to use. Although it has an advantage of being wireless, you still need to attach it to the Wiimote (where it dangles like the Nunchuk). This is more of an issue when you play older Gamecube games and downloadable virtual games when you need to press a combination of buttons to run and jump at the same time. Too bad, the jump button (on the Wii classic controller) is far from the run button and much smaller than the original design. For these reasons, the original GC controller is still the preferable choice.
    I have used other 3rd party controllers and nothing can get close to the original Nintendo controller.

    Pros:
    - Perfect response. The most annoying thing that some 3rd party controllers are notorious to is snapping back to the opposite direction when you wanted to have your Pacman or Mario guy turn right or left.
    - Perfect handgrip
    - rumble effect
    - Unlike the Nintendo "Wavebird", this is still available.

    Cons:
    - Wired
    - Expensive, as Nintendo has almost abandoned the Gamecube console for Wii and very few are left.



    5 out of 5 stars Indestructable.. well without trying to destroy it.   March 7, 2008
    I'm saying it right now. This control is so well made that mine that I got three or so years ago now, that has been thrown and walls and or smacked on something, has not broken yet. The feel is good its not to akward and you use almost all the buttons with every game you play. So if you are still in the stone age (like I am) I 150% recommend you buy this controller. If it doesn't say nintendo on it, it isn't indestructable.. well without trying to destroy it.

    The movement stick doesn't sense when you only push it in any direction a little bit. it either goes all the way or none at all.

    The picture shown is an "Authentic Nintendo Controller"... when you receive it... it is an offbrand. Not even the color stated! Seller said that it was Amazon's fault and not his, that he did not enter that picture. Said that it would cost too much for him to absorb cost to ship back. Was forced to buy at lower price.
