Gamecube controller or Wii mote- Which was the worst Nintendo controller of all time?

[Numberfox]

Can I just say after replaying some of my old gamecube games today, I think my hands have legitimately grown to accommodate the GCN controller? Literally when I play MK8 after 1-2 hours my thumb gets sore from holding down the small A button. As opposed to when I played with the gamecube controller again through 3 hours of playing Double Dash with friends without having any problems...
