Well, watching the tech demo again, it seems like the trigger for sure will be analog, which is already true for the standard controller. Solid info on exact specifics is hard to come by at the moment.

My first GCN controller L & R buttons work fine, even after years of SSBM. If Sony makes their buttons as sturdy as the GCN's controller, it should be fine.

Yeah well my NES still works after having played street cricket with it. Nintendo standard is a bit different to Sony standard.

My PS2 controller has held up pretty well over the years. That can be considered a good sign.

I still have a gray controller that works like it always did. Only issue is a bit of the rubber on the left analog is torn off.

Same here except it's completely off now.

That seems to be a common problem.
