I used Gamecube until about a month ago, I had two and they both kept malfunctioning so my girlfriend got me a pro controller. I'm still surprised at how good it feels, the only thing I miss on it are control stick notches, but they aren't really necessary for the characters I play anyway. Honestly, I don't actually know how useful notches are in this game anyway for characters like Fox, like how many angles the up b is actually capable of. In Melee there are about a couple hundred possible angles so notches are a requirement. People even mod controllers for additional notches

tbh i prefer pro controllers. feels great in my hands and the extra shoulder buttons are nice. but i tried to get used to using a gamecube one because i heard horror stories about people at tournaments that forget to disconnect their controllers after a match.

which one do you have? i have this controller lying around somewhere:



looks really cool, but the controller is a piece of shit. it works, but feels cheap as hell, and they actually put weights inside of the controller to make it seem heaver and more durable than it really is.

supposedly the wireless ones are better, never used one. i personally use an OG white gamecube controller.

Yeah I got that in white. You're right, it DOES feel super cheap lol. But it was $15 on sale, so I got what I pay for lol.

Like I said, I'm wondering if the PowerA GameCube ones are any better.

I use a Pro controller 95% of the time and I contend it's the greatest game controller ever made in general. But for Smash, I still like the dependability of wired controllers which is why I explore them sometimes. I have a GCN adapter as well but it's annoying.

I alternate between the pro and gamecube controller. i like the feel of the pro controller better but their control sticks aren't as durable as the gamecube ones, i kinda fucked up my pro controller playing another game. lol

The timing to up throw on the platform after the full hop cargo seems tight. Then you have to immediate double jump up air, and on top of that it's percent and weight dependent. Not exactly easy.

Right? That's why I always switch to Squirtle regardless of percent. There's only a couple moves that kill when Lucario is at 0% and they're pretty easy to avoid.

Btw I've experienced that myself many times at locals where someone forgets to disconnect their pro controller. Usually it's small children, adults are pretty good about it in my experience. The amount of weed smoking and drinking that goes on can cause carelessness and memory lapse too, though. Even sober people just walk away too quickly while salty sometimes

yeah im hoping the connection isn't too bad. MSM is mostly a west coast tournament and west coast vs east coast connection can be painful.

want to go Wario against me so I can practice? lol

Looks like I'm facing Murun the Bowser player. Even though I tend to do poorly against Bowser, I would rather face this guy than Bayo.

Game 1
kept getting me with grounded Up B. Kept stupidly going for dash attacks and he avoided them easily. Since he was ahead in stocks, he Side B'd me to the blast zone.

Game 2
played much better on my first stock. i was smarter about the moves i went for. didn't spam dash attack over and over again. as soon as he got the first stock lead, he Side B'd me twice in a row to clean out the rest of my stocks at near 0%. not gonna lie, I was pissed. Worst part of the dude bounced as soon as the game was over, didn't say GGs or anything.

In losers now.

Faced AquaaBoogiee in losers. In winners he used both Doc and Wolf, so I have no idea who he's gonna use against me.

Game 1
He went K Rool game 1. I was playing like ass because of how tilted I was playing against the other player. Got one stock because he failed to tech off stage.

Game 2
I gave up.

I don't know why I try to be honest. Never gotten anything but 0-2 in tournaments.

How bad was the fall? But yeah I've heard about Nietono. I think he was the last solo top level Pichu main? The others that I know of have secondaries. He said he doesn't think the character is strong, at least based off the google translate. Seems that the idea of Pichu being a mid tier seems to have taken hold in some pro opinions, dabuz at one point thinking the character was a low tier before moving him into true mid tier. I think giving Pichu a reliable kill move would help the character a lot. Watching nietono set vs Kuro and the first two matches had nietono struggling to close stocks until he got jab lock to fsmash back to back last match.

He went from 7th to 27th :(

Though the 2020 data is only 3 months worth but not a ton's changed in any of the offline jpn events

my dumbass is prolly gonna participate despite what happened yesterday. i was a little bit too irrationally salty yesterday tbh. i think the bowser player did what he had to do in order to win, and it was perfectly viable. can't blame him for that.
