Not so much a hacking question, but I thought the hackers might know.
We in the Smash Community have a bit of concern that it will be impossible to hold large scale Smash Bros tournaments because the Wii U no longer supports wired GameCube controllers, and 200+ bluetooth controllers in the same room will have issues with interference.
So, we wanted to know if the Wii U Pro controller will actually send data over USB. If so, this eliminates a huge concern. If not...we'll have to cross our fingers that Smash will have explicit support for it, or there can't be a big tournament scene like Melee and Brawl had. (I've been to 700+ man tournaments in Cali and NY.)
