And the push style ZL, ZR, left trigger, and right trigger buttons put the Battle Pad on par with modern Wii U (or Wii) Pro Controllers, but the loss of springy left and right triggers takes some adjustment, especially for grizzled Smash veterans. The larger directional pad is convenient and softer, but it has a spongy feel that feels inconsistent with the d-pad of the Wii U GamePad or Wii remote, as well as the rest of the buttons on the controller. Manufacturer Hori didn’t pass on the chance to improve Nintendo’s GameCube controller, though-with mixed results. And keeping the face of the Battle Pad consistent with the GameCube controller’s layout makes it comfortable and familiar, too. Hori's controller is actually quite worthy of its inspiration: the analog joystick, face buttons, and c-stick offer a solid build quality that’s responsive and sturdy. This alternative controller mimics the appearance and performance of a GameCube input device, comes with the added benefit of support across a variety of games spanning Virtual Console, Wii, and Wii U-and it works right out of the box with your Wii U for just $25.īranding on the controller is a little confusing: the box says it’s for Wii U, but the controller sports the Wii logo.The Battle Pad is shockingly lightweight the first time you hold it in your hands, but it doesn’t feel cheaply made.
