I have yet to buy a Neo Geo game on the vc, but I have been looking at some games like Samurai Shodown 2 or Fatal Fury. The only question I have is will these games work well with a gamecube controller? The only reason I'm asking this is I have bought vc games in the past that worked ok with the GC controller but the button placement still felt a little bit awkward.
I have a few Neo Geo games mainly Fatal Fury and Art of Fighting. I use the original classic controller and it works fine. Not sure how the GC controller works though. I have only use the GC controller on GC games and Mario Kart Wii

Yeah, my problem is that I dont have a classic controller but two gamecube ones. I'd like to play it in multiplayer and dont wanna spend $40 on two classic controllers
Although the gamecube controller works adequately with shooters such as Metal Slug and Ironclad, I really would not recommend it if you want to play fighting games. The d-pad is too small and the button placement is awkward to say the least. I can't imagine playing Samurai showdown with a GC controller.
I agree. I can't even beat the first opponent on the easiest difficulty of Fatal Fury Special partly due to the awkward button mapping, while I have no problems with Metal Slug..
Ash: Professor Oak, how's your Bulbasaur?
Prof. Oak: Oh, it only hurts when I sit.

Ash: I don't think I'm going to call him anymore.
