Honestly though, as far as fighting games go, the combo systems of inputting a string of commands through the d-pad are going the way of the dinosaur. Much better combo systems can be found through face buttons and the litteral action on screen of character movement. The d-pad combos should have been gone a long time ago, the only reason they stayed is because the consoles had d-pads on their controllers and the developers didnt want to update their combat systems again.
I've played some GBA fighting games on the GC's GB Player with the stick and it worked fine, in fact it helped alot more with 8 direction combos. And of course all the old NES games play fine with the stick. I just beat the original Zelda with the GC control stick and it was smooth sailing.
