Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Do you think this is a better pro controller?

I felt so burned other 3rd party controllers back in the day...
Maybe Nintendo can somehow come out with a patch to run VC.... Can it really be that hard???

Just wait a few weeks and get your pro controllers from alibaba/dx for 15 bucks or less.



I read a review on these somewhere and the reviewer said they were total crap... I just can't remember where I read that.



Stop hating and start playing.

They don't launch until December 18th. Was it some sort of preview?

These are $35 for white/black or $40 for gold. It supposedly will work on Wii and WiiU, meaning it would allow you to use on VC games in place of the damn classic controller+wiimote dongle BS. Why the fuck Nintendo didnt' let the real pro controller do that I have no clue. Simply stupid.

Anyways, I looked through other accessories this company makes and they all have 4/5 stars, so I think its a good product.

What say you?

No third party pro controllers will be worth buying until they have a headphone/mic jack.

i like the little detailing of clearly isolating the super nintendo controller on the inside from the 360 controller on the outside. very nice touch, i really appreciate those minor details.



looks nice but the dual sticks are in fuck'd up spots. ti's the same problem i have with the Wiu controler.

Have you actually used it?

I and all 5 of my brothers (who have only ever used a 360 / PS3 / PS2) all loved the controller with COD. It took them only a few mins to adjust to the buttons being below the 2nd stick and then it was no real issues.

Its very comfortable, light, responsive, etc. Great controller and easily up to par with PS360.

Good point. However, I'd just use the gamepad if I wanted that.

I'm looking at this for Wii/VC stuff mostly. Want to not worry about batteries basically.

yes i've had some hands on time with the WiiU controller. i'll likely adjust to it, but they still are in he most complicated spot.
