Pro Controller

First topic message reminder :

Spoiler:

So apparently this is how you will play the game with the pro controller, what do you all think about this? Do you guys think you will choose to use the pro controller knowing that you have to have the pad within reaching distance for you to use items and what not?

ok, now I want it x.x

Walmart you said?

Walmart on the 15th in multi colors, Target now in Black...

But like I said.. it's a bit of a decision to decide between which is best based on what games it works with and which ones you plan on getting.. Good thing is.. They all work with MH3U.

The wiiu proC looks awesome but first a DS3d for me then the controller xD

Is it just me who are going to use the old CCPro ( the original for Wii)? To be truely honeset I really dislike having both analogs up top like on the new version for WiiU =/

The only thing I would like with the game pad is that you can click on items really fast from your bag but I am gonna buy the pro wiiuC anyway to be sure /yes/

I'm pretty sure the picture is just a way to play the game using both the pro controller and the gamepad. I have the Pro controller now, and i love it. the gamepad is also great too, still can't wait to see how it is when the game is relased tho.

^ Pain, you are correct.. the things sown far are just and "example" with the GP... It can be configured in many different ways to suit just about everyones play style.

I really like how they added that extra variety to how you can play the game. I've always used the Pro Controller for Tri, played MH on PS2 as well as MHP3 on the PS3. The Wii stick tho, eh never. The gamepad looks very helpful, definitley going to have to test this on the demo in February.

so I just got my pro controller today and I must say, it is very nice to hold and very beautiful designed

I have actually been playing MHtri with the 3rd party controller. This is basically what it is going to be like playing MH3U with the pro co troller as both controllers are set up the same way (sticks on top buttons on bottom). Since I have been out of the game for a bit due to system issues and and other things so it took me a while to remember and get use to the buttons and controls, especially the difference in button placement. Honestly I didn't think there would be a huge learning curve in this area but it took a bit longer to remember than I expected. Once I got use to it however I actually was able to shift through a lot of menus and do things a bit better than with the regular CCP.

I still want to see how well the touch screen functions on the GP works along with the new button placement now that I've actually had a chance to at least play Tri with one controller having the new controller scheme.

Can I use the Wii Pro Controller for the Wii U? Or do I have to buy the Pro Controller for the Wii U?

I know, sounds confusing =)

Edit: I totally dig having the gamepad as a secondary device - I game all the time with my iPad, it's great.

The classic controller pro works just fine.
