Should Nintendo have kept the Gamecube Controller like sony with Dualshock?

I think so too.

I really liked this fake:

Seemed like the GC pad, but perfected.

There was no need to copy the 360 pad.

But I also think they should support it better. (i.e. make most games compatible with it)

They all look uncomfortable.

One day a company will have the foresight to include changeable positions for left-analogue and D-pad. I know 50% of the people here will disagree but having the left stick so high asks your thumb to move in an unnatural fashion to turn left. I had to quit my dream-job because of the horrific hand-cramps the poor controllers were giving me.

But back on-topic, i'd say of them all the Gamecube controller looks the most comfortable and the Wii looks the most likely to slip from your grasp. And the Wii-U looks flashy but completely unsuitable for precision gaming - though maybe that's the point.

Basically: Yes to the topic title. :D

The Gamecube controller was not that great.  it was not that bad either, but not having clickable analog sticks and one less shoulder button hurt the system.  The triggers themselves had to be pushed in quite a bit for a game to respond.  The SNES style controller is best.

360 pad doesn't have ideal analog stick position, imo.

The best analog stick position is GCs, imo.

But I do like the new X1 pad.

That's not possible because this is the best console controller ever created by man. (or aliens) ;)

[prepares flameshield... :P]

you could still use gamecube controllers for most games that used classic controls lol,  

but no , i think the ccpro was perfect , 

and the wiiu is good to , but id like the n64 style -flashy colors etc

The GC controller was pretty awful. All versions.

That was the one thing I hated about the GC controller. It made playing SNES classics like Mega Man X and DKC so awkward.

My pick would be the Pro Controller for the Wii U.

I don't understand why the Wii U controller has the analogs above the face buttons. Could someone explain why?XxR3m1xInHDn3D

When it was first revealed, everyone was talking smack on it for being so similar to the 360 controller. the analog/ button pad switch up is really the only big diffrence between the two.

Which doesn't make much sense, because with the same reasoning, MS "ripped off" the GC controller with their first Xbox controller.

No way; the GC had a terrible controller.

The button layout was bad, unless the game was designed specifically to work with it. Multiplats were bad because controls were designed for the gace buttons to be in a diamond. The dpad was too small, and the c-stick sucked.

The classic controller was my favourite, and the one for the WiiU looks pretty cool, too.

As much as I liked the Gamecube controller, it's been good that Nintendo has classic and pro controllers avaiable too.

GC controller and the 360 controller are my two favorite controllers made. <3

I'm sure it partially depends on the hands, but for me, the gamecube controller was one of the most comfiest of all controllers.

In other games, like Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, Lord of the Rings: Two Towers/Return of the King, and LEGO Star Wars worked quite alright with the face button placements. As for the C-Stick, I don't think it's too bad for functionality either based on my experience with TS2 or dual-analog mode in Star Fox: Assault.

I'll give you the D-Pad size though, that's pretty bad.
