Do you think i should add a 3rd party controllers article to SmashWiki? I'm really just thinking whether a third party controller article is notable enough. Please leave your thoughts below. Thanks!

#'''Oppose''' Third party controllers aren't notable in the grand scheme of things. They may be widely used, but everyone also knows they're third party and don't really think anything of it.

#'''Oppose''' I'd say no as per above. My hesitation before was how notable third party controllers are in terms of ''Smash'', but it seems like it's not that notable/used.

#No, third party controllers are not used too much by people because they are made with a cheaper quality and the official controllers are more notable so we would easily forget some and they at most should have a section on an article but not a page.

#'''Oppose''' Why do we need this? I don't get how third party controllers are notable, unless they're used in popular tournaments, which looking at other comments seems only a minority are used in tournaments.

#'''Oppose''' Third party controller are banned from tournaments. I looked at the tournament rules for controllers and I saw that Gamecube Controllers, and Nintendo Switch Pro Controllers. Competitors like [[MKLeo]] regularly use Gamecube Controllers in tournaments even though there are missing controller buttons. Controllers like PowerA controller that looks like a Gamecube controller, or a HORI Dragon Quest Slime controller. I really dont think this should be a neccesarry page to add since Third-Party controllers are banned from competitive play.

:The only really notable 3rd party controllers I can think of are the Smash Box and the Hori Pad Mini. Outside of that, smashers to my knowledge avoid 3rd party controllers due to being overall cheaper and less reliable.

::I think the notable 3rd party controllers should have a page, but yeah there probably aren't that many other than the ones mentioned above. For me, I actually use a controller brand called "8BitDo".

:::Personally I think if ''any'' 3rd party controller needs to be mentioned somewhere, it's the Hori Pad Mini. It's considered the tournament standard controller for Smash 64 tournaments, so I'm surprised I haven't seen it pop up anywhere on the wiki.
