The contentious M-shaped design of its predecessor was replaced with a more conventional handlebar style controller shape a second analog stick was added, replacing the C buttons with a C stick and the X and Y face buttons, last seen on the Super Nintendo controller, were reintroduced the shoulder buttons were changed to hybrid analog triggers. As the successor to the Nintendo 64 controller, it is the progression of Nintendo's controller design in numerous ways. I'll certainly be picking one of these up this holiday season.The GameCube controller is the standard game controller for the GameCube home video game console, manufactured by Nintendo and launched in 2001. The Wii remote and nunchuk combination get the job done, and I'm sure GamePad controls will be fine, but nothing compares to the GameCube controller when it comes to Smash Bros.' fast-paced action. No image of the new controllers has been made available, but PDP will be launching the Wired Fight Pad for $24.99 this holiday season. A line of Wired Fight Pads will be released, each featuring the theme of a different Nintendo character.

It can be used for Wii and Wii U titles, and PDP says it will also be compatible with Virtual Console games. Like the Wii's classic controller, the Wired Fight Pad will plug into the bottom of the Wii remote. Peripheral manufacturer PDP saw an opportunity to introduce a new product, so the Wired Fight Pad will be launching this holiday season.

This option was still present with the Wii entry, Brawl, but the Wii U doesn't feature any GameCube controller ports. As such, a good percentage of fans prefer the GameCube controller as their pad of choice. fans point towards its GameCube entry (Melee) as the peak of the popular fighting series.
