Super Smash Bros. pros at Evo ‘loved’ Hyperkin’s new GameCube-style Wii U controller

The pros have spoken, and they like what Hyperkin is laying down.

Last week, GamesBeat reported that game-product manufacturer Hyperkin has designed a new take on the Wii U Pro Controller called the ProCube that looks and behaves a lot like the GameCube’s classic pad. The company explained that it was taking the “handmade” prototypes to last weekend’s Evo fighting game tournament Las Vegas to get feedback from Super Smash Bros. for Wii U players, and it turns out that those top-skilled gamers really like the new pad.
