The *ahem* collection

[NovaMan XP]

And deaths only waste more time. So you'll have to be doing your best or you're gonna ##### up at the end and smash something in anger...

[ChaosVortex]

I've only switched L to dash when I have the GCN controller. With the SNES, I don't change a thing. A to dash. B to jump. Y to shoot. I can press A, B, and Y all at once too. The great thing about SNES too, is I can press two of those buttons without interferrance with another.

EDIT: Then again, my fingers have gotten bigger. ._.;

[Kayauts]

Wait, how is this any harder with a PS2 controller?

[ChaosVortex]

With the original button configuration, it's horrid on the GCN version. If you want to just press the B and X button with one finger and NOTHING else, you can't. The huge craptastic A button is in the way. In order to play well, you have to handicap yourself by changing the button configuration.

Of course, the X Collection features games that were on the Playstation and SNES platforms, and the PS2 controller has the same (if not similar) controller button pattern as the Playstation and SNES. The GCN controller is actually the worst Nintendo controller I've ever seen.

[Mikero]

I use the tip of my thumb for B and the front knuckle of it for X/Y/A. It's annoying but you can manage.

[Abominator]

GCN

No.

[Mikero]

Thank you.

I really hate that. It's not called a "Gamecube Nintendo".

[ChaosVortex]

I was actually thinking about how much you said you hated that when I typed that.

In fact, we had this discussion before on the old board. It's shortened to GCN for whatever reason.

[Orange Devil]

Thank you.

I really hate that. It's not called a "Gamecube Nintendo".

Are you really arguing that or just saying that you don't like it? Because I'm pretty sure that's what it's techincally called.

[Mikero]

I'm saying that I don't like it. It's called a Nintendo Gamecube but the official shortening of it "GCN" even though that is beyond stupid. If I went around saying I got a game for my "Gamecube Nintendo" I'd be such a jackass.

[NovaMan XP]

I just call it a GC Controller.

[Kayauts]

I just call it a GC Controller.

Thank god, I was waiting for somebody to say that

[ChaosVortex]

Wow. There shouldn't be anyone having a heart attack over a single letter. They both mean the same thing and I don't care. I just have a habit of using the proper shorterned version of stuff.

[Majikn]

"Wiimote" annoys me more, but I've never been the type to argue about it. You can say GC or GCN, either way, I'll know what you mean.

Though, no one's having a heart attack in the first place. A few people rightfully don't agree with the use of "GCN" but I don't think anyone REALLY cares about the one letter difference. It's just stupid, that's all.

(Anyway I bought the X Collection and enjoyed it despite its flaws)

[ASR]

What the heck is wrong with "Wiimote?"

[Majikn]

Nothing that I care to argue. It's not like I've been uppity about people saying it, anyway. Call it what you want.

[Kayauts]

Unfortunately just the name "Wiimote" is enough for a thousand distasteful jokes.

[ASR]

Well, so is just "Wii", but I like Majikn's idea of not pursuing this argument.

I've honestly never had any problems with the X Collection, especially since you can edit your controls in each game.

[ChaosVortex]

Exactly. That was one of my main concerns when they were making it. If you couldn't change the controls, then I wasn't going to buy the GCN version.

Still disappointing there weren't as many extras that were promised, but whatever. I paid $30. That's about right, I suppose.

[Orange Devil]

Did anyone unlock Megaman Racing? I still haven't.

[ASR]

You mean Battle & Chase? Of course. Nothing special.

[preventerWIND]

It's horrible. I took more joy in unlocking the images and junk.

[Abominator]

GCN for GameCube is like PSX for PlayStation:  Incorrect.

Wiimote is slang, and acceptable.

[ASR]

When the term "Wiimote" was first used mainstream, I found it to be pretty clever, and you don't really sound like an asshole by saying it, so I've continued to use it.

[Majikn]

At the very least, I'll take into account that you aren't just saying it to be "mainstream," then. It's a personal thing, I guess. Sort of like how I hate using the word "hot" to describe women. It's not a "dare to be different" sort of thing, it's more of a "I just can't take myself seriously when saying that" sort of thing.

[ASR]

I hate saying "hot" because it just sounds stupid and brainless. "You're hot" is something a confused preteen tells every girl that gives him attention.

[ChaosVortex]

GCN for GameCube is like PSX for PlayStation:  Incorrect.

I try not to use "PSX", because although I forgot the original abbreviations, I'm pretty sure it's PS1. But it's a fact that GCN is Gamecube. If you've got it, you should have the GCN trophy in your Smash Bros. Melee memory.

I thought the same thing, "Why?", but shrugged it off.

[NovaMan XP]

... I... didn't know your nuts stacked on top of each other...

[ChaosVortex]

Major START PARENTHESIS END PARENTHESIS START PARENTHESIS END PARENTHESIS EQUAL SIGN EQUAL SIGN EQUAL SIGN EQUAL SIGN D.

That's a new one. 

[Mikero]

"Wiimote" annoys me more

Yeah!

Though, no one's having a heart attack in the first place. A few people rightfully don't agree with the use of "GCN" but I don't think anyone REALLY cares about the one letter difference. It's just stupid, that's all.

Yeah!

... I... didn't know your nuts stacked on top of each other...

Don't yours?
