It has the same buttons, so this doesn't surprise me. There probably will be GC games on VC sooner or later.


well it lacks 1 shoulder button    home and minus (plus is start)

Please Criterion, patch Need for Speed: Most Wanted U to support the Gamecube controller's analog triggers.

Also just remembered I will now be able to enjoy Wind Waker the classic way.  Good list of supported (non-VC) games here. - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wii_U_games_that_use_the_Wii_U_Pro_Controller


Not in a million years. They won't even put all the DLC out for it. Wish I was wrong though. But hey, now my Wii U is even closer to being an official GameCube 2.0!!!



Is it wrong that I'm more excited to be able to play Tatsunoko vs. Capcom with GC controllers again over Smash? I can't even take that game online anymore.

Oh! Cool! A little birdy told me February for GC games on WiiU.

Was it Miyamoto, Iwata or Reggie?



Goodie, might reconsider pick this thing up when Smash comes out!

I can't play most 2D fighters with the regular GC controller because the D-Pad is too small.  

Though I do use the GC Pelican Retro Pad which is a rip off of the GC Hori Digital Pad.  

The Pelican Pad has a circular shield type D-Pad instead of the true cross D-Pad that the Hori has. 

But it's still a big and responsive D-Pad that works good if you're used to playing SFII on the SNES.



Even games on the Wii VC? Because. Then. I. Could. Play. POKEMON PUZZLE LEAGUE!!! With a Gamecube controller instead of that piece of shit Classic Controller (it's really not a terrible controller, just doesn't work well for PPL). Prease make a Pokemon Puzzle League for the Wii U. I'll make it a million seller, I promise!



I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.

Will be great for my VC games!

Now, just bring the great GC games remastered to Wii U and relase a Wii U GC edition to make it the perfect GC revival! :)
