Nice, this needs to be stickied.

I dont understand...I can see how this may be useful but it tells you what controls are required before you download the game itself...

 

[bryceisbest]

this is true but i have seen so many questions about what controllers are needed to play VC games.

"cant you use gamecube controllers for only some games?"
or
"the wii remote works for all the games"

are common misconceptions. i figured it like to put an end to it.
