Former Nintendo Minute co-creators reviews the Smash Box controller

The Smash Box controller is a custom arcade controller designed by Dustin Huffer and developed by Hit Box. It costs about $250 and replaces the GameCube controller’s analog stick with a button layout. Unlike many controllers, Smash Box’s button layout attracted several users towards the controller.

Hit Box designed Smash Box specifically for the competitive play of Super Smash Bros. Melee. Several competitive players believe button controllers are much more useful than joystick controllers. The Smash Box is currently a legal controller for major Super Smash Bros. and fighting game tournaments.

Furthermore, some users also claim that the Smash Box offers significant health benefits as it puts less stress on the hands of its user. Although Smash Box offers various benefits, it’s very hard to master for someone who has been using joystick controllers for a long period of time.

While analyzing the Smash Box controller, both Kit and Krysta faced the connectivity issue several times while fighting. In the video they mentioned, ” The controller was disconnecting quite a bit. On the Smash Box official site, they noted it could be a firmware issue.”

Interestingly, Kit and Krysta were able to adapt to the button layout controller quickly; however, they both mentioned that only players with extreme levels of precision can master it. What are your thoughts on the Smash Box controller? Let us know in the comments down below.
