It still remains the most comfortable controller I have to hold! I love the way it just lays comfortably in my hands, not having to curl my fingers around anything. I can only hope that this is a worthy successor! As for rumble, I'm (as always) pessimistic. They could have taken advantage of the rumble in the GameCube controller since forever, why would they suddenly change now? (Heck, at this point I think I'd be happy with the ability to remap A and B to B and Y, respectively, for the sake of 8-bit games played with the controller.)
