...should I buy the Classic Controller, or just use a Gamecube Controller? I'm buying a bunch of VC games on Friday, but don't know if I should pick up the Classic Controller or use one of my old Gamecube ones.

If you can use the Wiimote for the games, use it! If its an SNES, Genesis, T-16 game, definately the Classic Controller. But for N64 games, the cube controller is ideal

Classic controller for the 16-bit era and before. The Gamecube controller is ideal for N64. Also, any games that use the wiimote on VC are usually the best feel for the full retro experience.

I agree. NES games with the wiimote kind of has that classic feeling.

after buying a classic controller and playing with a GC controller, imma have to say GC controller. i dont think either one works that well at all. yea the GC controller is good for N64 games ill give it that but the classic rly isnt good for anything. the best thing to play NES games with is the wiimote. i use the wiimote for all VC games it can be used for.

Are you playing any SNES games? The classic controller is almost the same as the SNES controller.

I heard that you should use both because certain consoles are suited for different types of controllers.

Not to be rude but anyone who says you shouldn't buy a Classic Controller has no idea what they're talking about. Buy it everything 2D plays 10 times better. And this is coming from someone that uses all 3 controllers for the VC.
