Except the Zapper comes with the totally awesome Crossbow Training, IMO the best Arcade Shooter on Wii and some of the most value for hours-to-$ ratio.

Good point Steven. Maybe the game can be acquired alone on Ebay?

Nice replies everyone. Thanks! Now I know what to buy. :)

The c-stick is very nice because you can use it for aerial attacks to ensure against accidentally moving in the direction of the attack.  The dashing up smash is also much more difficult to pull off with any other control scheme whereas it's simply running and c-sticking up on the GC controller.

I'm sure you do fine with Wiimote or Classic with your friends, but against more skilled players (who will be using GC controllers) you will be at a disadvantage.

I second this.

If there are just three of you, then I would say you want 2 extra remotes (one may as well come from Wii Play.... shooting and tanks are worth the money between them)

And 1 extra nunchuck plus either GC controller or a classic would be my reccomendation.... then depending on what you and your siblings prefer in Smash Bros (be it wiimote+nunchuck, or GC/Classic) you will want extras of the prefered method, so if you all like remote+nunchuck then just a third nunchuck.... or if you like traditional then extra classic/GC.


I have got along fine with 2 extra remotes (3 in total) and 1 extra nunchuck.... although I already had a standard GC and a wavebird.

Hi guys, I know this is a very old thread of mine but thanks to all gave tips.

I eventually got...

4 Wiimotes + 2 Chucks
2 GC controllers
1 Balance Board

Definitely go with Wavebirds for Brawl. Classic is a no-go, for that.
As for the rest, if you're gonna want to play Resort, might as well make sure you have a Remote + Motionplus+ Nunchuk for every player. If you're just gonna get Wii Sports, forget about the Motionplus, you can always get that later then, as it's not needed for the original Wii Sports.

I agree with most posters in all except the Wavebird. It is a great controller but lacks the vibration feedback feature. I brought one of the new white gamecube controller from Play-Asia that come with a three meters long cable and I am very satisfied with it. Also, I like to play SSBB with the remote + nunchuck, but most people prefer the GC controller.

Oh dear. Lol. XD

I didn't read all the way to the end of the thread. Well who necrobumps a thread from 2 years ago anyway?
