That was way back in may. This is what Nintendo said "The Wii hardware has sockets for the GameCube controller, too. So I'll just say now that you may not want to throw away your GCN controller yet." You can't disprove the Wiimote will be used aswell as another control option because it's still in development.

But still, this is basically forcing people who've never had a GC to go out and buy just a controller, I can see controller shortages on the horizon in games stores unless it comes packaged in with the game but then instead of paying like £35-40 for the game you're paying that + a controller for that one game.

Smacks of money grabbing to me, I know they need to make their money back somewhere but this isn't the case, I have a GC controller that my mate bought me a couple of years ago to play on his GC and it never got returned but that's not really the point.

Couldnt you tilt the nunchuk to move and jerk it to dash? Use the nunchuk analogue as the c stick and its shoulder buttons for shield and grab? Can't remember the other buttons needed but they could be mapped to the wiimote right?

I highly doubt that Nintendo will force people to buy an old shitty GC controller to play a next-gen game. Until I hear something coming from a Nintendo rep's mouth, I won't believe it.

Yeah, not going to happen. Regardless of rumours going round on the Internet, the game will come out and will be mapped to the Wiimote. It would be public suicide if Nintendo could not get one of their own games to work with their own hardware. It's statments like the above that start wars

ok lets just get this straight first, people who are saying, oh they cant use the wiimote cuz they wont have motion sensing capabilities on the game...listen, just cuz you're using the wiimote, doesnt mean you're using motion sensing..you could just use it as a wireless controller(turned on its side)


also, its not the biggest deal to buy a GC controller, and they are in no way shitty. just buy a wavebird and it will go along with the wireless sense of the wii.. its a good thing to get, because you'd be suprised how many GC titles you can find nowadays for like under 10 bucks, that are still amazing titles, and if you have a GC controller, you can play em..


but all of that aside, im sure nintendo will make it classic controller compatible if not wiimote compatible(not saying motion sensing)

Nintendo are not going to start making thousands of GC controllers to fill the void of demand. It just doesn't make business sense.

In fact they are happy about their favourite console only having a graphics upgrade.

Next gen consoles apart from Nintendo are not fully 100% next gen - more like graphic upgrades with wireless controller enhancement.

Nintendo constantly changes the controllers to improvise on gameplay with their games. And to stay ahaed of the gaming industry being dominated by Sony and Microsoft... by creating stuff that Sony or Microsoft never thought of before.

The only exception is with Brawl because the creator, Sakurai experimented with Wii controllers and found it made it more complicated to play with. So he stepped down and used GC controllers.

"You guys should feel honored"

Ew...? As if you know this information is confirmed, and as if you have the right to say I should feel honored that the game will apparently use the gamecube controls. because I bought a brand new next generation console, and extra NEW wiimotes...I should feel HONORED that they wont be used?

Also here you are trying worthlessly to prove your point by saying, the game will still be next gen because of graphics. Seriously where the hell have you been, graphics on the wii are NOT next gen.

and then you counter your idea with....

"Next gen consoles apart from Nintendo are not fully 100% next gen - more like graphic upgrades with wireless controller enhancement."

So if Smash Bros. doesn't use the wiimote and chuck......whats your point? Its graphics will still make it next gen? I don't think so.


Quit telling people your assumptions are facts, using a third party source to try and prove it , and your misinformed opinions.

when in reality the game wont even be out for over half a year.

um well im not sure where i heard this but im pretty sure that they are going to make it so you can set it to wiimote controlls, classic controller controlls, and Pre-Gen controls. the game's tutorial will proabably be in wiimote form though. im sorry i dont have a link for this now

Yes they are, no doubt.

His arguement didnt support either of those things.
By saying graphics doesnt really make a next gen console.

LINKZELDAGAME,

you stabbed yourself in the foot.

people who think the game should be ran with wiiremote are noobs... theres no question about, they dont no how to wave dash they dont know how to get Fair combos and Uair combos there flat out noobs, once they go to wikipedia and look it up they may try and bash me but there still noobs, u cant play that game with a wii remote unless all u do it punch them and pick up items, learn the game and than re-post dont talk about stuff you have no clue about makes me soooo mad

if you still think im wrong tell me how u can play like this on a wiimote...
YouTube - Captain Jack(Shiek) vs EK(Marth) 7 its impossible
