Imagine being a Little Z fan and then lost to him as he was playing with a slime controller
💀
f
what a mf-ing honour
Joke's on him, I was also playing on the slime controller
My dumbass was sitting here wondering how you commented 2 days ago on a less than 24 hour old video then i saw the Z next to your name.
That Slime controller looks weirdly fun to use. If it wasn't so expensive, i would 100% want to try it out.
17:25 the reason us terry mains use the input power dunk is that not only is it stronger but around 6% for lighter characters and 0% for heavy characters up air short hop dair nair f tilt power dunk is a true combo that kills very early especially for the heavies
thank you for representing us real terry mains❤
Can't wait for MKLeo to pull up to EVO with a single joycon and reverse 3-0 Tweek
Ye

I wonder how good KAZUYA would be for drums you have the Lazer, 10 hit combo, auto turn around tough guy armour...
You might be on to something...
yee
That actually sounds pretty op
10 hit combo is actually pretty shit. But I do wanna see him try inputs and combos with the drum kit.
Hear me out... Sonic homing attack
“This is marketed toward boomers”
Me, a 25 year old with 3 arcade sticks: Oh
You might not be a boomer at age, but you can be a boomer at heart
23:16 that voice crack tho
Just wanna say, the production on this whole video is fantastic, the editing, the camerawork, the skits, the jeffery bezos mashup, and of course the variety of controllers. Fantastically done!
Timestamp for Jeff bezos: 4:04
This thing needs a separate Upload on UnderClips (or anywhere else idc, I just wanna listen to this as a whole song)
Seconded!
Now the only thing missing is humor
Sussy baka
@@CUATROMORCE I second that my man
I mean, everyone knows that Single Joycon is the most Optimal way to play Switch Games, especially Smash
Sure thing
Cheers. I'll drink to that
Thats how I play
@@aarusharavindhan9888 same here! and my dad!
Two days ago??? How???
24:54 My favorite part of the video. Loving the musical syncing here.
3:29 I find it hilarious that Poppt and Hop are both smiling while doing this scene.
Now we need a “we made Poppt1 bad 2” with that fight pad controller. It actually looks pretty awesome if you can get used to the button layout.
I got the controller at a yard sale and it works great, except for smash. It works for 2d games like platforners. One of the best fight sticks I’ve found.
It'd also be fun to see a "We made everyone except Poppt1 bad" video with more of Little Z (and Hopcat) struggling with the pro controller.
Give Poppt1 the wireless pro controller and turn on turbo (Item #4) or the 8bito-02 (Item #5).
“Who bothers doing inputs” this hurt my terry main soul so much
Are you talking about go meter or things like true up b / side b?
@@relaxation_and_tax_evasion true inputs
Yeah I main ken.
Fr bro I said which Terry main doesn’t do inputs
same
_You had me at secondary inter-cardinal directions_
I still really wanna see some one roll up to grand finals of a super major, reach into their pocket, and pull out the slime controller. Or the super tiny one. And I'm guessing any character with auto-turn would be best for the drums.
As someone who mains Terry and actually uses an arcade stick, can confirm.
As someone who mains Terry and uses an arcade stick, did you have any reaction when he called Terry a Shoto?
As a terry main, should I get one? And how much is it?
@@KyRex1783 is he not? Ive never played kof so idk what his moves are supposed to do, but his crack shoot looks like an anti projectile move and i thought rising tackle was a dp
I recommend the video "what is a shoto" by maxamilliandood. And yeah, don't get a stick unless you wanna start from zero and re train your brain to play.
@@Yeethaw69 I play all fighting characters in this game and have good performance in all of them by using a pro controller so I don’t think getting the arcade stick is worth it honestly that’s more of a nostalgia thing
Jordan’s delivery of that Splatoon joke was top tier
I actually feel attacked by how accurate the joke was
Like it was the exact reason How I got a pro controller
It was good
Same for Splatoon
100%
Yeah normally he just descends into giggles every time he tries to act
This made me realize how much I miss Little Z's music covers.
The funny thing is I'm pretty sure I'd like the 8bit tiny controller. As a guy who played most of his video games on a gameboy advance sp, I like the smallness of the joy-cons, and when using only one joy-con it feels too long. I genuinely think the 8bit tiny controller would be comfortable for me and my super weird tastes.
We need a backstory for why Zack was so pissed that someone was playing Mega Man, causing him to throw his controller
MEga man = aggy
He was vsing kameme
Lemons make him salty
@@ligtningdog6399 you could say they make him..
Sour
@@sansanabanana yeah lmao
I think the 8 bit is built for kids, I've been trying to teach my nephew how to play, and it's hard for him to hold a pro or joycons for that matter. I think the 8 bit would be amazing for him
I get to feel young again. I use the 8 bit and the pro controller and I'm definitely not a kid lol
How old is he?
Because honestly it looks too small even for most children
How absolutely microscopic are your nephew’s hands?
2:26 "my mom got for me so that I can play splatoon" xD (that's my favourite game actually)

1:41 That was the most perfect throw I’ve ever seen. Can we get a replay of that?!
I need a full version of that Bezos mashup as soon as possible, that slapped!
Finally, someone who mentioned the mashup. I want it now
"How often do you see someone playing Mario Kart with one of these..." I feel personally attacked. As a melee player mainly, that gamecube skit at the beginning had me cracking up.
People who use a USB adapter to use PS5 controllers *sweating nervously*
Wait what that works? Oh so I guess if i get a switch i wont need a new controller because i have a ps4 one
@@evolvedbread1370 yeah just get the 8bitdo adapter. You can connect almost any controller, Xbox 1, ps4, ps3, and I think even the Wii U controllers. It’s great 👍
my buddies and i were talking about our favorite smash players the other day. Most of em claimed faves like MKLeo or Marss. My favorite is still Little Z even though i'm pretty sure Zack stopped playing competitively before I even picked up smash lol. Dude just makes me happy. I may live below 4 million GSP and be a dreaded Zelda main but it's thanks to Zack and the other Underdogs that I'm still able to enjoy smash despite all the toxicity
That's good to hear man. I've only played Smash Ultimate a couple times but I play Smash on the 3ds and I'm not too good yet. Pikachu and DK are my best characters and I'm trying to determine which is my main.

But yur gay so doesn’t matter

5:35 I also grew up playing brawl on a wii remote. I'm not old, just broke.
8:10
me, playing on a joy con and able to do 0-to-deaths and pretty hard combos: ok
You should’ve tried one of the fighting game characters on the drum controller. They auto turn around so you don’t have to worry about aiming.
It would surely still be shit, but maybe a little bit less shit?
Genius.
Definitely Kazuya. 10-hit combo.
That’s what I was thinking too
Someone had to say it:
Can't wait to see what his BEST controller is!
One of his best controllers
4:05 love the modified version of "Bezoz I". Great song from Inside
When the guy shows up to the tournament with the slime controller 5:54
I love how after he puts it in his mouth he just continues like it’s not the craziest thing he has ever done
I assume you're talking about the controller in this video.
To be fair, it's not the craziest thing he's ever done. Heck, it's not even the craziest thing he did in this video.
You are contributing to society: you're making me laugh, which is good
Really liked the video. Loved the skit and intro at the beginning. I think adding chapters to the video would be helpful if people are looking to check for your take on a specific controller. Great video either way!
Didn't know Cogger had that good of a mullet before
3:35 Hopcat when poppt picks Lucina
3 things:
1. You should’ve tested out a Power A controller because there are 2 easily programmable buttons on the back and they are really comfortable (at least for me)
2. The drum controller would work best with a shoto because of the auto turnaround (but it would still be terrible)
3. I loved the video, this was great content to watch.
Power a controllers feel really cheap. I’ve had a couple and there is a world of a difference between a real controller and power a. Also although the programmable buttons are pretty nice, you can’t use them at tournaments.
@@bobbyzeitgeist1842 are you just not able to use the controller at all, or do you have to disable the back buttons? Also would you be allowed to use an 8bitduo in that same case?
@@bobbyzeitgeist1842 I use a power-a wireless controller, though I don't play smash. It's pretty good imo; I play Super Metroid with it, PC games like Dark Souls, Hollow Knight, Ori 2, etc. So it's fine with precise movement, pairing up via bluetooth (unlike Gamecube I assume unless they changed that), feels comfortable, has programmable buttons, good layout, etc.
The thing I noticed about it when I got it was that it did feel a little light (especially without batteries), and I've never had a Pro or XBox or Playstation controller so dunno how different that is. I also have gamecube controllers and those feel lighter (when you have batteries inside the powera). I'd imagine if you used a wired power-a controller it would be too light, unless they build it differently to account for that.
Anyway, I've had it for quite a while and it's very good for me. The joysticks don't have notches if you're into that. They also have different art choices for colors or even prints from popular games, and it's just straight up cheaper than the Pro. Would highly recommend, though again, I don't play smash.
@@bobbyzeitgeist1842 There is definitely a difference, but they don’t feel that bad tbh. I personally never use them for smash, but they’re good for general use.
Just wish they could be charged instead of using batteries. Who uses batteries in this age?
I have a Link Power A controller with two buttons on the back, and I still don't know how to map them in smash.
2:49 what's funny is that today a pikachu main at our local was talking about making a notch for every single quick attack angle
24:53 that was so clean bro, excellent job on that bit
Underrated thumbnail. I think this has to be one of the hardest his thumbnail artists has worked lmao. This is a classy thumbnail. The controllers have a thin black outline, Little Z and the Slime controller have a slight white glow, and the background is dimmed down. Art at its finest.
9:37 "And Knuckles, 3d, dx, with New Funkey Mode!"
I love the gamecube controller for smash, but when I played Splatoon I was all about detached Joy-Cons, it just felt good to me to move the camera with motions controls with just my right hand, but the issue with that ended up being, joy-cons suck and drift, so I had to switch to the pro controller.
I actually have that exact Mayflash model, it's pretty great for traditional fighting games
But yeah it's not quite built around Smash or most other games lol
you should make another video on mastering the fighting game controller, that would be cool
I'm just gonna drop this here since Arcade Sticks are something I always liked to talk about, so in case anyone is wondering "why do people still use these", here's a little ted-talk:
One reason is of course nostalgia.
But the big one is that most combo systems in fighting game heavily rely on cancels, which require you to perform inputs in quick succession. Smash doesn't really use cancels outside of Ryu, Ken, and Terry. You don't cancel a move into another, you *link* them.
To do these quick button presses it's often simply way more comfortable to have your hand resting on the controller, enabling you to use more than just 2 or 3 fingers while you can dedicate your other hand entirely to stick movement, which also has to be precise and quick and makes use of unusual motions (like the legendary pretzel input).
Seriously, try this on a normal controller: Use your stick to draw a half circle from right to down to left, then immediately push right again and press A and B in quick succession. How fast? Ideally you want to press B one or two frames (aka 1 or 2 60ths of a second) after A.
This is the input for a Kara Potemkin Buster. And hell on a controller.
These control schemes have their roots way back in the past. Old arcade cabinet layouts influenced the way fighting games are played and in turn nowadays fighting games pass that influence on to the peripherals we use. Smash ain't different.
It's not all black and white of course, games or even specific characters/techniques can be more comfortable on a pad than on a stick and player preference is a thing. Some pro players even switch back and forth during a tournament. DBFZ explicitly avoided inputs not well-suited for a typical controller.
So the tldr is:
Execution in fighting games was heavily influenced by old arcades. The techniques and conventions from this era are still around and can be uncomfortable to make use of on a pad. Since these games often can't really make use of an additional stick or dpad many players opt for a stick to make said inputs easier.
And now I slink back into my cave again.
Thank you
I’ve learned a lot more from this comment than I thought I would
I play rivals of aether with a keyboard (I’ve also made a couple characters) because I’m poor but I think I might actually go better with a fight pad than a controller
Thanks
@@nuttyboi6645 if you're used to keyboards hitboxes are also an option, they have the same layout as arcade sticks but instead of the stick you have buttons for movement and inputs
Well I’ve seen those before and they look very precise and I do quite like being able double tap to run, but my biggest problem right now is money (or lack there of) so that’s probably something for the future, plus as a character dev I need to be able to test out 360 rotation for certain attacks and abilities, because I decided to replace my airdodge with a grappling hook because I’m qUIrkY
Kazuya doesn't cancel in smash
@@sabridinart4207 You're right, mb.
9:54 Thanks for telling me what that T Button does, I have be using that controller for a while I didn’t know what that button did
I'd like to add a contender: The BigBigWon Elitist is probably the best feeling Switch controller IMO. Yes, even better than the Nintendo Pro due to the concave thumbsticks. Unfortunately it's not quite tournament legal due to Turbo and Macros...
2:35 this is way too funny to me
That was incredible. I love these style videos and Cogger is always hilarious too! 😂
24:33 that’s what my friend who mains hero says all the time
You and the underdogs need to do a video where you do smash with randoml generated controllers (then you can use these again) :D
Processing gang!

@@IDKisReal2401 he’s a member, he gets early access to videos
25:27 I was actually laughing my ass off to that tier list, way too accurate
7:50 AND THE ABSOLUTE DRIFT!
One of the best interactions of the pro controller is the power A ultra controller or whatever it is. Super nice to hold. And good inputs and customizable sticks.
The octagonal gates on the gamecube style joycons look like they're at the wrong angle?!
You should have tried the PowerA Wireless Gamecube controller
Wish that were true, i have one and it breaks way too often
@@LA-tn2nu stop raging then
Power A controllers break after a few months of regular use
@@thedaddycandy I use 2 of them everyday at work to play friends and they still are going strong. They usually last about 1.5 years which isn't great but if you need a wireless controller and hate pro controllers they get the job done
I have one of those and its pretty good :)
haha hearing the ''emotion'' theme at the start of the video has made me really wanna do another Gen 5 run, Thanks Little Z (or whoever edited the video to have the song in to begin with)
8bitdo pro 2 controller would be literally the perfect controller if the dpad had a slightly better texture and shape, ive always liked the feel of the ds dpad and ive thought itd be amazing if someone could replicate the feel of it on a regular controller. Also the dpad sometimes makes a slight noise when pressed, although im pretty sure this is a result of the way they have designed it to not have the same issues as things like the switch pro controllers dpad.
Edit: btw, i bought the controller basically entirely for 2d platformers and tetris, which it is amazing for.

-"How often do you see someone play Mario Kart with this"
Speaking of the most used controller for MKWII
I actually have that fight stick at home. I bought it for Skullgirls, but I had a hard time setting it up and a harder time getting used to it. Nevermind the fact that I'm not that good at traditional fighters. But it does seem really solid if you can figure it out. Which I really should put more effort into
For those wondering, fightpads like the mayflash cannot give you tilts or walk/run in smash because the stick is digital
Well some do have work around that let you switch between sensitivities equivalent to the analog inputs so you can walk
Tilts I’m not so sure about
For the Taiko controller you could ask for a modification, connect a long cable with a Joystick at the end, attach it to your mouth, at your teeth, and control that with your tongue. I thought of this back when you played DK with DK Bongos.
4:44 "How often do you see someone playing Mario Kart on one of these?"
What if I told you I see them almost every day?
I play Pokémon with my GameCube Controller
"Notches? Isn't he the creator of Minecraft."
Wow production level on the steady incline, it's been cool to see you grow, keep it up Z
Quick recommendation if you ever make a part 2 of this, hori split pad pro joycons and binbok joycons are amazing alternatives for regular joycons (though hori split pad only works on tablet mode so getting footage may be a problem)
i dont think the hori split pad can be used wirelessly, might put a spanner in the works
The quality of this video's is insane, love u lilz
Finally little z will be using 100% of his power with his best characters AND his *best* controller
4:04 nice to see some good music picks on videos like these. Shout out to the G man Bo Burnham.
What song is it called
@@dr_wardin the original is literally called Jeff Bezos by Bo Burnham. But I don't know what this version is called. It's a Mashup with a Bruno Mars song.
@@Tuetenfussballer i thought it was a mashup with smash mouth's all star
I see the video production went up by alot, good job!
Amazing video, my only critique is you using the joy cons without the grip, it's way easier to reach everything comfortably with large hands when you use the grip in my experience
I’m a little late to the video since TH-cam notifications are the great, but I was the one who recommended the taiko drums! I’m glad to see that my recommendation made in the video! I did warn him that you could only taunt, but it was still great to see him try!
I accidentally skippes to 4:11 and my brain just got fried,
Also he should have used a controller cam
Oooohhhhh god. The sideways Wiimote in Brawl. The memories of using that were locked away for good reason. I use A to jump *now* on my GC controller, back then my controls were 2 to jump, 1 to normal attack, and A to use specials... Don't ask how I managed to recover offstage, I don't know either.
20:21 I’d honestly say that the Shotos will work the best bc they can auto turnaround so u will have a chance to hit you’re opponent
You have to remap your buttons to accommodate whichever controller you're using! Default uses two of the faces buttons to jump. That really takes away from most the controllers used like the Zero 2 and the fight stick. For the fight stick I would suggest mapping your main actions to the homerow the your fingers rest on so each finger has a dedicated action.
It was HILARIOUS when Kazuya started investigating what you were doing
2:57
"East East West"
I actually have an 8-BitDo Pro +. It’s legit, I really like it man, glad you see it so highly too. Tbh I forgot about it since I’ve been playing a lot of PC games like Apex lately, so thanks for the reminder haha. Didn’t realize that they made a new rendition though, neat 👀
What about an episode of deadly espectate with the underdogs? If its a two player match its for teams, if its a four player brawl every one choose a character and if its a doubles match the losers team does each punisment
I use Wiimote and Nunchuck with the Mayflash adapter and I love it! Feels so comfy in my hands
3:37 love to see character development
"IT WAS YOU, IT WAS YOU! ILL FUCKING KILL YOU" that clip litterally had me replay that 10 times due to how funny it is 🤣🤣🤣💀💀
Regarding the official Pro Controller, I changed my bindings to simply have the "Y" button as a second "A" button (thus leaving "X" as my only option for jumping) and it just feels so, so much more natural to reach with my clumsy fingers.
Also, as far as the regular Joy-Cons go, it's not all that much help, but the wrist strap bar (or whatever it's actually called) does help slightly, if only for adding some minor bulk for gripping comfort.
When I played smash on the 3ds I set y to attack, b to special, x to jump and a to shield
My favorite part of Little Z videos is picking out all of the music from games he's never played
i love how on the the 8bitdo pro2 he says that feels like to person who made know they were doing but they are also the carters of the tiny one
Feel like you should've remapped your buttons every time you switched controllers. When I occasionally do single player stuff in Smash handheld I have special moves on Y and regular attacks on B so it's closer to a GameCube layout.
11:51 I think I saw something like this on another website...hm.
The ending. OH MY GOD that ending was beautiful!
That beboncool controller reminds me of a pair of joy pad replacements I currently have. Haven't experienced drift yet but MAN do those things tend to have some button delay. (or not pressing the right area)
A friend of mine is actually a solo Steve main who's fairly high ranked and only uses the Slime Controller, they're really amazing
I personally think using B as jump and Y as special for the pro controller in smash, makes it feel more natural to me because most games i play are platformers and thats usually the control scheme
No

I am personally a pro controller user since I really like the layout. I’ve used a GameCube controller before and it just didn’t feel right with me, but it’s Defo a really good controller. For a 3rd party controller the power a spectra is really good. Has the layout of a pro controller and feels pretty well made for 45 dollars CDN. I take it over to friends houses for offline smash and overall really like it, especially since I can just unplug it and forget about it.
C'mon, the shotos would work cuz they can turn around with the drums, and kazuya can basically move with 10-hit combo
7:22 it's only called the c-stick on N64 and GameCube controllers, on all of the others, it's called the right-stick, or r-stick
