@The_Ninja If you want to pull off your entire moveset properly, then yes.
Second stick/C-stick helps with a lot during Smash. Without it, your aerial game is significantly impacted, DI gets affected, DACUS and some advance techniques go out of the window. Generally helps with precision too.
Still, why limit the control options when the CPP add-on already exists? It's very annoying. Clearly you can tell that Nintendo are trying to phase out the older models.
Also, most players will be around the same level when they play, until the New 3DS/LL is released and the Japanese players have more options available to them, and can play to the fullest. Standard 3DS/XL owners will be at a clear disadvantage.
I never tried the Pikmin series... It never "caught" me... E3 after E3 did nothing for me...
Okay joking aside, everything REALLY did change when my sister bought me Pikmin 3 as a gift.
To this day it's my favourite game on the Wii U, and I've played every game on that list bar W101 (which I recently got for free thanks to the MK8 promotion).

Why release the CPP and not use it in a game that actually needs it?
