I hate having both sticks down. I'd rather the Xbox format than the Dual Shock, but there's something about both sticks up that I really like. I probably won't get my way though. They're probably gonna try and distance themselves from the Wii U with this. I understand why, since it was a commercial failure, but I actually like the Wii U.

I'm also on the lower stick wagon. It felt really unnatural playing WiiU games with the right right stick so high. I never really got used to that even after 4 years of having the system. It was a good call from Nintendo to recognize that and make that adjustment.

I know that was the original intention to have the controllers work for multiplayer. The stock ones make sense in that scenario but I don't think it would be out of the realm of possibility for Nintendo to release a limited edition version that bucks the trend of having "full functionality." Nintendo did make that classic controller in the shape of a SFC controller and that was missing 2 shoulder buttons and a home button.
wiggy:
^^^ you didn't see what amounts to a "pro controller" in the video? They already have something like that ready it would seem, just like the Wii & Wuu before it :)

[Gamecube Joy Con]
[N64 Joy Con]
They could do this with virtually any console they want and I would buy them all

However, they're also making a Switch Pro Controller, so maybe they'll make a GCN version for Smash.
Actually, what I want is a Switch Pro Controller that puts the right stick back up top, where it belongs.

Nah. The "360" controller layout id the absolute best. Not many people like them st the same level. I must say that you are in the minority here.
