Well this is unfortunate.
Looking into the PDP FightPads, it seems that they're *still* not the perfect GameCube controller.
Note the ZL and ZR buttons are the big shoulder buttons while L and R are in the front positions.
This isn't an issue in Smash where the controls can be changed, but in any other game where you use the classic controller, the shoulder buttons are all reversed from each other. Is this a huge deal? No.
Is it annoying? Yes.
The HORI Battle Pad fixes the shoulder button issue but comes with its own set of problems:
- The C stick is GC styled and not a regular stick
- L and R buttons are flat and no longer contoured to your fingers and seem to be regular buttons and not spring loaded
It seems like the hunt for a more perfect controller than the original GC controller continues.
