I tried this before, but the Madcatz Micro CTRLi controller doesnt work with it. Nonetheless, it's still a pretty darn good platformer.

EDIT: Just saw in the description: I guess madcatz micro belongs in the Steelseries category. I really wish they update compatibility. kopicha Well-Known Member Feb 21, 2015 716 25 28 IT #11 kopicha, Mar 12, 2015 Last edited: Mar 12, 2015 hmm i shall check my gamepad and see then report back Update : Yeah same case for my Horipad, only the start button works.

Then got Shantae and the Pirate's Curse for 3DS last night, on sale for $15. Man what a difference it makes playing with physical controls! The game looks amazing too. cthulhufan Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Sep 5, 2013 145 0 0 Systems Engineer Missouri #14 cthulhufan, Mar 13, 2015 Yeah, this is just stupid good. I bought Mighty Switch Force! To help make up for the fact I got this for free. I don't see this leaving my iPad ever. So, I got this, Ark of Sinners and that's it for metroidvania types. Any other solid titles I'm missing out on? Based Xatu Well-Known Member Aug 27, 2013 1,937 0 0 #15 Based Xatu, Mar 13, 2015 Powerpuff girls and the adventure time game are pretty good.
