"Gamecube Pads..."

What does you think of the the new gamecube pad? the c buttons have now gone into a Control stick style thingy...and it looks like it handles like a Playstation Pad...as 2 handle reaching your tumbs down to the 2 sticks....Built in rumble pack also with the choice of getting a wireless pad....

I think you use the C stick for controlling Pikmnin on Pikmin, im not sure though

The c-buttons were made for camera control, imagine how much easier it'll be to control the camera with an analogue stick! The harder you push it the quicker the camera will pan etc.

Also imagine Perfect Dark 2 or Turok! Aiming will be easier, and PC gamers will be able to pick it up better, as the aiming with the C-stick will be like aiming with the mouse on the PC. (kind of anyway). And there won't be the Turok vs. Goldeneye control setups (move with C buttons and aim with stick or move with stick and aim with C buttons) becasue you can use an analogue stick for both!

I'm not sure that the C stick will work very well, it might get confusing, good old C buttons seem better

Ok, they might not... but they still might... you never know. But I'm sure some third parties will release strange looking controllers that are designed for specific types of games that are virtually impossible to use but look nica and futuristic...

I am 13 and my hands are really tiny, my hands are perfect size for the GBA :D I took it too school the other week and let my mate play on it, his hands are massive, his hands fitted all the way around the GBA making it look even smaller.

Why do people always have to try and find something bad about something good? Nintendo do it with quality, to them their is no perfection. They always try to do it better, and normally succeed. Itstead of looking at teh bad things look at the good! Its still better than everything else on the market!

I don't see why people are moning about the size of the pad. I've used it ang it's GREAT!

My only problem with it, is that you have two shoulder buttons on the right hand side and only one on the left hand side. You just feel like there should be two on the left hand side while playing, and it's a little disorientating. But you get use to it, and it's a great pad!
