In 2009, Nintendo released a revision of the Classic Controller named the '''Classic Controller Pro''', with a new wing grip design and the Z<small>L</small> and Z<small>R</small> buttons relocated behind the L and R buttons as secondary shoulder buttons, in the vein of the Z button on the [[GameCube controller]]. As it was released after ''Brawl'', the game makes no reference to the new model; all images show the original Classic Controller. However, the controller is fully compatible with ''Brawl'', and is considered the superior controller by competitive players. | In 2009, Nintendo released a revision of the Classic Controller named the '''Classic Controller Pro''', with a new wing grip design and the Z<small>L</small> and Z<small>R</small> buttons relocated behind the L and R buttons as secondary shoulder buttons, in the vein of the Z button on the [[GameCube controller]].

3rd party controller manufacturer PDP, with official licensing from Nintendo, has announced for release in November 2014 a "Wired Fight Pad" controller, a Classic Controller whose control layout has been redesigned to strongly emulate the look and feel of a Gamecube controller. Its name is something of a misnomer since it's technical workings are just like any other Classic Controller and as such it connects to the console wirelessly by plugging into the Wii Remote. It appears to be marketed primarily towards Smash Bros fans. <ref>http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2014/07/pdp_gamecube_styled_wired_fight_pad_for_wii_u_and_wii_listed_with_november_release_date</ref> | 3rd party controller manufacturer PDP, with official licensing from Nintendo, has announced for release in November 2014 a "Wired Fight Pad" controller, a Classic Controller whose control layout has been redesigned to strongly emulate the look and feel of a Gamecube controller.
