the wii mote for me too. The controlls are so awkward, and the wiimote just doesnt fit in a smash game. The gamepad is okey, because it got good controlls, but it is too big and Heavy. I like the wiimote+nunchuk tough. I went trough brawl With it. My favorite controll is by far the pro Controller, because of its layout. Havent tried classic and gc, so they may be better or worse
