people are too obsessed with that controller

 

[Shyghoul]

having a controller separate from the system looks uncomfortable

then again i've never actually played something like that so maybe it's not

 

[Mario4Ever]

That looks incredibly stupid and impractical.

 

[Ray Trace]

This controller is overrated as hell.

Oh come, this thing might have its uses, considering that my 3DS control stick is pretty wonky right now.

i'm pretty sure it's the equivalent of playing a console game on an incredibly small tv

The only way to play Smash 4.

Even if it's something I wouldn't bother going to the trouble of doing, that's pretty cool. He gets to play smash with the controls he enjoys, I don't see why not to if he has the means to do so.

I was just wondering when there would be someone that shows some impression in it instead of just saying how impractical it is.

Seeing we in addition to this have that guy that had the Twitch Plays with Pokémon X, it could mean some fun things with alternate controllers for the 3DS. The Gamecube controller is stand-alone, the Wiimote and other wireless controllers not yet, but they are usable.

Not necessarily, if you have a capture card to display it on a large screen.

this statement is correct. Wii U Pro controller ftw.

Yeah it kinda misses the point of being a handheld in the first place if you do something like that. That's going to look awkward if you're on a bus, airplane, train, etc.

Something like this however would be cool (Fake image, not a real product):

Or there's also these 3DS grips that while won't emulate the buttons on the Gamecube. At least you can hold the 3DS much more like a regular console controller
