The sticks are more like the stick on the Gamecube controller, with the Octogon shaped setting

The remote functioned properly at first but i noticed that my right joy stick was kinda shaky

The control stick broke on 2 of them within 2 weeks

The large joy stick broke.

The large joy stick broke.

The back side of the Directional Pad and C-Stick (or in this case Right Analog Stick) have a rounded surface instead of being flat like the gamecube's

(Luigi version, but I doubt the color effects performance any)lightweight, responsive buttons, sticks work well

The right analog thumb stick is bigger than the original gamecube controller.4

The only positive that comes to mind is having an analog stick instead of a C stick gives a better grip for your right thumb

The right stick is not a semi-nub like the Gamecube controller either; it's full size.

When driving in a straight line it would just steer me right off the course as though I had jammed the stick all the way right or left

Some people may even prefer this style of sticks than the original GameCube controllers since the right analog stick is the same size as the left unlike the og

If you're using mainly the buttons (far more common), the larger face makes you more likely to bump the C-Stick while you're trying to mash the B button, especially if you have large thumbs

The sticks on the Hori Pad are more like the original GameCube

I was going to buy the Zero Suit Samus version too, but changed my mind after fear of not finding the right color thumb sticks if they break too.

The buttons are fantastic, the control pad is great for virtual console games, but the sticks are so awful they ruin everything else

Left stick broke during 2nd use

oh the right stick is awesome

The right stick (C-stick) is a little more substantial now instead of a small nub, not sure how I feel about that.

but the analog stick broke after 2 uses

The top-side of the controller is very slick; the controller is light (perhaps this is because I was used to the wavebird controller, which had a battery pack in it); the 2 joy-stick controllers don't have the soft tactile feel of the Nintendo-brand Game-cube controllers.

The HORI battle pad improves in every way and gives you the classic c stick

Will post review after playingEdit* lowered my rating because the right analog stick went out :(

The second stick is better than the old c-stick

You can't really pop an analog stick into place if its place holder is broken

Right analog stick is a little too big tho in comparison to OG GameCube controllers

The right trigger button sticks sometimes
