@@campbellblock3061 but that's technical, for me as i have big hands it does not feel nice in the slightest. I use the Wiimote and Nunchuk still not super comfortable but makes it easier to use
@@illford Yeah either nunchuck or cc is the most popular I believe. Almost nobody who plays seriously uses wheel because of the difficulty in controlling the directional inputs. The only use for the unique diagonals are for mushroom gorge glitch time trials.
I've actually been playing MK for 8 years, I use the Wii Wheel. But that doesn't mean I'm good. I started playing when I was three, so I don't count about 5 of those years. I'm getting a CC soon, and I'm not too sure what to expect from it.
the wheel because of motion controls is actually the most pecise controller if you use it well. you can not control how sharp you turn easily on joystick, same sharpness each time, motion controls you have exact control of the turn angle, giving wheel pros an undeniable advantage.
You’re not supposed to hold it that high up. If you’re sitting in an upright position I would recommend holding it slightly above your lap and not so close to your body.
pointer finger claw grip is honestly really comfortable and natural; started developing it when playing with an xbox controller on dolphin and it works really well
I used the wheel for about 8 years and then I used the nunchak for a month and got a lot better. All the particularly difficult tricks that I couldn't do became easy. Analog drastically changes the style of play and the ease of many tricks such as gap jumps and BC3 glitches. I recommend the nunchak very much ^^
I used the wii wheel for every grand prix for every cc including mirror mode. And then when my friends came over, they wanted to use the wheel so I used the gamecube controller for the first time and felt like an idiot for not using the gamecube from the very start
I recently tried Mario kart Wii with my gamecube controller and I’ve loved it. Prior to that I used to just use the Wii remote with the Wii classic controller attached to it
I’ve been playing with just the wii remote since the game came out and today I decided to finally switch to the nunchuck. Got the hang of it pretty quickly and Got new pb’s on four different tracks today lol.
I personally use the gamecube controller. Maybe I just have a big thumb, but I can simultaneously have my thumb on the d-pad and the analog stick. And unfortunately, you still do need batteries to use the wiimote to select the ctgp revolution channel on the wii menu.
I main the Wii Remote + Nunchuk because of how faster it feels. I used to main the GameCube Controller until I found out in one race that I actually outrunned everyone and almost passed through the racer in 12th place when using the Nunchuk. I am already used to all the control schemes, so switching is very easy (aside from the Wii Remote only) but the Nunchuk feels simpler and I am very good with it.
if you play on dolphin, i recommend mapping accelerate to the right trigger and tricks to the right stick, that way you can still accelerate turn and trick/wheelie at the same time
I’m weird. I’m a competitive mkw player and I use motion controllers with only the Wii remote xD I also play a lot of time trails, on snes ghost valley two I have a 53.4 :P Edit - I’ve been playing since 2010 btw
I used to play with the nunchuck, but since I picked the game back up, I've been using the gcn controller because I don't want to deal with dead batteries. I don't feel I have as great of control with the gcn as I did with the nunchuck.
I didn't even know clawing was a thing. The problem you highlighted has never been an issue to me. I've just been doing what you do without realising it.
If your playing GCN controller, just curl your right index finger over the "a" button and use your right thumb to press the arrow pad. You will have to use your right middle finger to hop as well. I find this the most efficient way of using the GCN controller, because you have ever button covered.
You remember the Wired Fight Pad? That one third-party CCP that was in the style of a GCN controller, that was made for Smash 4? I've been playing MKWii with it, and holy crap, I need a new controller.
Just now seeing this. I used to use the nunchuck for MKW until I learned it's possible to use the GameCube controller. That became my main controller for as long as I had the game and I always used the "claw" technique for every game I played (I didn't know it was a real technique until I got older) so it was easy for me to steer and trick on Mario Kart Wii. I can understand why it so hard for people to master it as some people tried to copy me.
I recently got a GCN because my GCN-shaped CCP hurt my fingers with the tiny bumpers used to item and hop. If your wondering, the L on the CCP is where there's the Z on GCN but on the left and R is where Z is and ZR does the function of Z but is where R is on GCN.
I have two of them, a Mario and a Peach one. My Mario one stopped working so i shell swapped my Mario and peach one, and when i was doing so I broke the Mario right z button, so why not use the peach z button? I used it and it works!
When I started playing Mario Kart Wii I only used the wii wheel and I used it for about 5 years so I got pretty good at it. However, when I took a 3 year break from the game and came back, trying to use the wii wheel was a nightmare, so I switched to using the nunchuck and wii remote.
A really good issue for people who have problems playing claw with their left hand in game cube, just play it with your right with your pointer finger for the a button, middle finger for triggers, and your thumb for d pad. Either that or for the game cube controller. You don’t really need dpad inputs. you can use LT for your items and make them directional with the joystick
I am a GCN player and, yes, clawing is super awkward at first, but with practice it starts to feel natural. I've never played with nunchuk or CC but I feel GCN is the best just because it doesn't require a wiimote
Yes all those controls I recommend to give a go, I think anyone starting the game should get a pro controller because in my early days, the pro controller is what made me master Coconut Mall Time Trials. While at one time I did use the Pro Controller, I use a Wii Wheel. But I'm definitely ready to use the Pro Controller in online races as they can be challenging.
Interesting video. I use nunchuk but have a ccp so I might try it out. Also in 2014 when I played casual I used Wii wheel but I can't even use it anymore XD
I used to use wheel when I first played the game because it was the only way I knew of, I got decent at it then I was racing my dad, and he was using nunchuk. He tried to get me to use it because 'motion controls bad' pretty much, it took AGES to convince me to try it but once I did I never looked back. (also I genuinely didn't know about the directional trick thing, I have been doing up tricks only my entire life, thanks for that)
I play Mixed Claw in GCN, while my bro plays Nunchuck and my dad bare Wiimote. Even with that (and him playing automatic) he still beats us from time to time! It's amazing tbh he's as good as he is for playing Automatic Wiimote
I use wheel because nunchuck hurts my hand and hell no I'm not going to trick with the freaking d pad. Also I use kart so it doesn't matter that wheelies are really awkward.
In my opinion, I feel that the Wii remote like the literal remote that looks like a PS five kinda is really good and definitely GameCube is the one the best designs and feels so good in your hands
That's right! The CCP's thumbsticks are actually the same as the nunchuck, and for my GCN I played melee before mkwii competitively, and it was ok to do things like swap the sticks and raise the triggers, so I did so XD
Nice! I used white nunchuck sticks on one of my ccps only because I wanted it to match my custom paint job. But taller sticks are nice for smash as well.
I use a grip you didnt mention but it works really well (for GCN). I put my right thumb on the d-pad, my middle finger on the R button and index finger on the A button. I hold my index finger against the a button sort of sideways, so it kinda hurts, but it works well because A is almost always held down.
I remember I mastered rainbow road when I was 5 with a sideways Wii remote by itself. I didn't know any other controllers were available so I got used to it.
I've been using the Wii Wheel for 3 years now. It's really not that bad if you spend a lot of time with it. I can do wheelies and tricks consistantly. My only problem with it is that the inside drift bikes can't turn in the air, which is a problem on a lot of tracks. Therefore, I use karts on the harder tracks and bikes on the easier tracks. I do have a Classic Controller Pro, but I don't use it because of how I have to use my left hand to both drift and do wheelies/tricks.
Instead of clawing the GCN you can use the right thumb for the dpad and your index to press a. Took me a long time to get used to it but it works for me.
I like the pro controller best, but my hands are pretty big so claw is very uncomfortable for me. I've learned to play pretty well without using the technique.
I have spent my entire life using the wheel accessory. I have raced about 2,000 races on my account that I have had for less than half my life. And on my other account about another 1,000. And I’ve had brothers so I spent a good thousand games as player two. If I even tried switching controllers I would fail miserably.
I have largely only played mkwii with the wheel. And let me tell you, in the beginning, it was not pretty. I was constantly crashing into walls and it was really hard, and that kinda discouraged me, but I kept at it. And it took me literal years to be able to get precise movements with it and not be veering out of control constantly. But wow is it worth it, because once you get the hang of it, it feels so good. To be able to accomplish those precise inputs and and to flex on people when you beat them with wheel, totally worth it.
Yeah, I tried game cube controller for a bit, but the d pad is just so stupidly small and hard to use so I've been playing on Wii wheel ever since. Once you get used to the motion controls they actually give you a lot of freedom. But yes you can't turn the wheel as fast as you can move a little joy stick but for MKW I don't think it makes that big of a difference at beginning and intermediate level.
