Hori Arcade Stick?

Has anyone thought about using an arcade stick for playing Brawl? It's probably not as good as a Gamecube controller, but it's probably a pretty fun alternative.

Since arcade sticks use digital input, wiimote controls would be configured.

Proposed controller layout:

(1) (2) (3) (4)
(5) (6) (7) (8)

(1) - Standard Attacks / "A" Button
(2) - Special Attacks / "B" Button or Shield
(3) - Shield or "B" Button
(5) - Jump
(6) - Maybe Grab?

Having (1) and (2) be A and B instead (3) be B, is so there isn't a button in between you could accidentally hit while trying to smash. Likewise, Shield at (2) makes it easier to shield-grab. No matter what your preference is, it should probably where your hand feels most natural. Put taunts whereever at your own discretion.

Piano input aerials ftw. It's the new clack clack clack.

Edit: Wiimote controls use D-Pad for movement; dashing is a double tap in a direction.

I was thinking the same thing earlier this week.
It would be read as a classic controller, and I'm pretty sure you can't map movement to the d-pad.

Enjoy taunting!

I had the same idea. I was more interested in the SNES to GC adapter, though. http://www.retrousb.com/index.php?productID=122

I have the stick and it doesn't work. It wouldn't suit the game well, anyway.

The adapter also maps taunting to d-pad, as does HORI's SNES GC pad (it works fine for Naruto GNT 1-3 though).

I wonder if there is an adapter for ps2 -> wii or if the wii will accept a ps3 joystick via usb.

you can buy an adapter as seen in this video. I believe the PS2 controller would be a better alternative to the virtual console as it feels sturdier

Yeah good luck with that :dizzy:

SF4 can come to wii. A Capcom rep said that the graphics won't matter if the gameplay is the same.
