So I just bought Contra III on the virtual console and have yet to play it because my sister is currently borrowing my cube controllers. In the review for Contra III gamepot said it sucked with cube controllers. So I want some opinions from anybody who's actually played with the cube controllers.
i only got wiimotes and gamecube controllers, so i use gc controllers on vc games that don't allow wiimote on its side. so far i haven't been dissapointed, and i do have contra III alien wars on the vc and i play using the gc controller. works just fine. but then again i always found the gc controller to be comfortable so mayb thats why. i see no point in spending an additional 30$ (with taxes) on buying a classic controller, escpecially 4 classic controlers for multiplayer vc games - gc controllers are sufficient and i have yet to dl a game that only allows a classic controler. so use ur gamecube controlers.
Have you played contra III with the cube controller? I dont want to go pay 43 bucks to go get two so I can play with my friends, so I think Ill stretch my thumb the extra inch to press Y to jump.
It's really hard to play with a GC controller, the Y button at the top is fire, and the red B button is jump, but they have the giant A button between them, and that if accidentally pressed will waste all of your nukes. Plus the analog shoulder pads make it take that extra half second to get the triggers in all the way to before the game registers the pressing of the button. CC all the way.

Ya I think I could get used to it fairly quick, and by the way your signature is awesome.
It's not about that. It's about the fact the main button on the GC controller becomes the bomb button, which is stupid, it's about the fact that you cannot duck and shoot at the same time on the overhead levels, it's about the fact that the Classic Controller's buttons and D-pad are all way better equipped for this game.
