Does anyone think Mario Kart 8 will go the same way with this, eventually?

What was the reason why all person don't like the Wii u pro controller?
And why all love the ngc controller? I have two at home and they are good but I prefer the pro controler because of the feeling in the hand and the digital triggers, i hate analoge triggers in games that is made for digital triggers. It's wasting time while pushing the analog trigger to activate the signal.

Very excited to be able to buy new Gamecube controllers rather than have to pay through the nose for old beat up official controllers. Are any of the 3rd party ones that are modelled after the real thing any good?
I guess people are afraid of change when it comes to things like this. Figured Nintendo would wean people off the gamecube controller and force people to use the pro controller instead. Thought it was time to move on.
Whats wrong with the WiiU pro controller? Almost everything. The sticks are not in the right position. The L+R shoulder buttons don't support analog. The analog buttons are made of soft material, meaning they won't last long and will come off (PS3 controllers are the same). Glossy faceplate. Only thing they did right was the d-pad and long battery life.
I agree as far as the stick placement is concerned, they had it right with the Gamecube controller and messed it up. Now, is that a good reason to give C.P.R to a controller that's two generations old and long since out of production? I don't think so. I would've expected them to release an improved wireless controller instead of an add-on for a really old one that only a fraction of the userbase has.
Yes, I think a lot of people are bummed they just copy/pasted the old design. I would've loved a 360 controller clone with a yellow thumb stick
Nintendo didn't obviously only make this for Smash (Although stranger things have happened) They kind of need this adapter for the GC Virtual Console for a few great GC games that use Analog Triggers that WiiU can't do.
No Analog Triggers on the WiiU is a huge oversight in my eyes, even though I still love the console.

Now that you mention it, I have a really food feeling that Nintendo really is working on GC Virtual console. Only way for GC virtual console to work is to actually have a controller that has all the functionality of the GC controller. I hope they release at least one game every week and/or month.
Here is a screencap from a loading screen from NFS Underground 2. If Nintendo was using the pro controller for Virtual Console, things would be really confusing for new adopters of Nintendo. Nintendo would be forced to manually update all the games to change the image to one of the new Wii controllers. But now, they have this new controller that works through USB. Problem solved.
If you really think about it, having this controller port is a really smart idea. Remember way back when Gamecube Virtual Console was mentioned for the Wii U? At least you'll be able to use the actual controller for it.
Now if only they had them for NES, SNES, and N64 controllers...
that's nice but i'm not spending more $$$ to get an adapter that should have been included in the fucking console from day one! i'll use the pro controller thank you.
Are they also gonna announce a way to upgrade the harddrive too? 32GB is not enough...
Finally, an official adapter that we trust won't drop inputs or lag!
And we won't have to buy it online!
Since official Windows drivers are out of the question, here's hoping someone else steps up to the plate!

Yeah, you can use any USB flashdrive or harddrive.
Otherwise, amazing news. Rip on me all you want, but I really cant imagine playing smash bros any other way. It was something I was actually worried about.
